I can't wait to give an RS a whirl around the circuit to see how helpful the front LSD and reduced fat are..

Thanks! Mitsu dealer here in Kalamazoo. $250, they are going to cash the check I gave them for the allocation spot. A word to the wise...do not pay over list for an RS, there are good dealers out there (Ziegler in Kalamazoo, talk to Jordan). I went for the total stripper, no nothing (like they should be ), only use is track and a little drag racing, well maybe kicking a little STI a@@ to!

Sounds like the car comes out of thier May delivery allocation so they thought they would have firmer date in a few weeks. One thing of interest, they did not have the Urban Package listed on the order form as an option at this point. Pricing is still TBA also.

My friend the works for Mitsu just put an order in for an RS...its' the first one coming over. The date is set for june/july right now as the delivery date. It's the first one in the states so everyone will be getting their after he is.

On a side note, we had a pre-production RS this weekend and did some "testing" with it. I have some videos of us drifting it. I should have it encoded this week. The RS is realyl fast because of the weight. Even with all my mods it was hanging with me.

New word the RS offers a new Helical Front Limited Slip Differntial and also offers and Urban Jungle package which gives you some of your comforts back such as a/c and pwr door and windows along with the ability to have your door handles the same color as your car Rally Red and WeightLess White are the only colors i have heard of.
