Are you getting your GSR late for some reason? All Mitsu info points to later release of the MR versions..

Ok, I was a Suby owner in the past, great cars, but I made the switch to Mitsubishi, greater car, in some areas. I can't see myself paying $40K for the Subi, or a Mitsubishi Evo X. I will keep my Evo8 maybe get an Evo9 becuase of the Mivec. But I've read about the mechanical specs of the new Evo X and I'm not happy. You can have the garbage auto sequential box, that's the only good thing about the car. In conclusion, I will keep my Evo 8, mod it and know that my CASTIRON block will handle the upgrades.

LowUFO

Yeah, you already said that. But are you getting MRs early or your GSR late? Mitsubishi have said the GSR will arrive first, then one or two months later the MR will start arriving..

So there no delay on the MR like what we previously heard?

LowUFO

Its like pulling teeth. Surely, someone can tell us if the MR is arriving at the same time as the first shipment of GSRs..

I was just at the Los Angeles auto show to see the evo x and the mitsu reps said that the mr fully fully loaded would be 37-38k, i dunno though. But that phantom black looks bangin in person.

Yea, I bought my IX for $31k out the door. But like everyone is speculating that the new one will be around $40k, then I'm not sure if I will pay that much for another evo....

All I got to say if the x is 40k I will get a bmw 135i for 37k with the sport suspension package. Maybe do European delivery and get it for around 35k before tax etc I think it saves 5-7% of the retail price plus one free ticket to Europe through Lufthansa.

My folks did this summer when my pop's got his 335i and they took off 2800 or so on it and paid 40k before taxes etc and paid 1000 for his airline ticket for him and my mom and even got a discount on a hotel through bmw.

Heck with the extra cash it would pay for a good time in Europe I can spend 2k there doing whatever I want come back and then get a lsd and probably chip my car thru Vishnu tuning for maybe for 2500 that's a guess on a lsd plus install being 1500 and if that's correct it would be a wash.

That to me sounds like a better deal plus a vacation to boot and maintance for 4 years it adds up.

Now Im not a evo x hater or anything of the sort honestly if the evo x gsr comes in at say 32k or say even 34k I still would probably get it over the bmw but if it's over 34k Im walking to bmw and ordering European delivery and get a 135 for 35k and going to pick her up in Munich.

Yes I have driven the evo9 may times and the bmw i35 so I have a good idea of how these car's may differ the 135 being slightly more edgy than the 335 and the evo x being more refined than the 9 and I will drive both but if it is within 2k the bmw with 2 extra cylinders and a extra gear to me will be the winner plus it's a rwd car and that is just really fun and yes so is awd I had a 2003 wrx for 3 years and loved it. But if both cars are no more than a 2k variance lb for lb I think the bmw is more car for the buck which is unusual that a premium German car company could be a better overall value than a Japanese value conscious mass market manufacturer

Not sure how the European delivery works, but if they wan't to be paid in Euros you'll be in for a surprise.

The dollar is worth 9% less to the Euro than it was 6 months ago. It might knock out all the benefit of buying in Germany.
