Cool.

It that dude still wanting to get an Evo RS with 4-door-power-auto-roll-down-windows, cruise control, ayc, acd, sequential manual transmission, and underbody panels for less than $30,000? Remember that guy? He would always post the same thing about how he wants all these things on a car or else he won't give up his precious $30,000. That guy used to make me laugh. Hell, he still does.

Can we just get the a/c alone?

Another question I wanna throw out there is, I wonder how good the sound quality would be if I put in my custom sound system in the RS?

I imagine that since the car has no soundproofing it might soud crappy

THe RS is a joke . Thank god a got my evo. To me its cool if u have 26+grand to waste. How can you really enjoy the car. The high-intensity discharge headlights also were deleted, as was the rear window wiper. Inside, RS drivers must make do without an air conditioning system or an AM/FM/CD audio system. There are no power mechanisms for the windows, locks, or side mirrors. Trunk compartment trim has been removed, as have vanity mirrors, rear assist grips, map lamps, and the parking brake lever's leather covering. An antilock brake system is not available.
LOL
too funny let me roll up reach across my passenger seat to stretch and roll down my passenger side window as i am sweating buckets to answer this guys questions about my car. Man i paid 28000 for my EVO. i love everybit of it. Cant image no power nothing or AC.

I believe the SCCA is going to allow the Evo into club racing in 2004. If that is the case the RS fits perfect.

imo rs is only good for a race car, i personally cant live without a radio in my evo, for one reason, this is that i would hear more rattles, with out the radio on very loud.

no a/c nyc, hells no. its not florida whether but imagine this. manhattan rush hour no a/c. hells no a/c is a must.

buy an rs only if you have another car as a daily driver
