WOW...I think everyone knows your discontent towards the new X. Give it a rest. Take your IX and alienate yourself somewhere where we don't have to keep reading your oh too familiar hate posts. You made your point. Move on.

Keep in mind that this was built to one up your IX

which is why I voted for the base MR . . .I'm not sure I like the tech package, but the SST sounds AWESOME. . .my fiancee has a VW Jetta 2.0T and in the 'S' mode (red lines, downshifts, etc.) that thing is AWESOME and so much easier to drive in NJ Turnpike/GWB traffic (ack Cross Bronx!!) than my Evo. . .

but sounds like my current setup is faster than an Evo X MR, so I'll wait for 3 or 4 years when the aftermarket has hacked into it. . .!!

the only reason i did not get an MR the first time around was because they were all sold out. Why would i not go for the top of the line one this time around?
I forgot what's in the technology package

Base GSR or RS for me. From what I hear, the MR uses the SST only. If I could travel back in time, I would have gotten an RS. I don't even really care about those fancy power windows. I still don't even use my keyless entry. lol

You heard right. 2009 models may be different.

I wouldn't trade in my IX, but if I can gather the funds by the time the 'mad rush' on the X is over, I wouldn't mind getting a black MR with Tech pkg as a daily driver.

Right now im planning on the base GSR, perhaps with the Sight/Sound/Sun package if it isnt too much. As much as i would like the nav/fast key stuff, i dont need it and am not willing to pay the extra 5k or so for it.

Overall though, it all depends on the pricing.

The X one up the IX? When you say one-up...do you mean in weight gain, lesser communication, slower acceleration, and slower lap times!? Because if that is what the X was designed to do, it does a great job !
