X but I'm not going to be driving the car you buy. So don't buy a car because some guy on the internet told you he prefers one over the other.

I prefer how the big fmic fills up all the space in a 8 bumper, the ix, you cant tell a difference.

X

Why is it so hard for some previous owners to retire from an outdated model and move to an advance X! Huh let me guess because you bought the car last year and you will lose ton of money

Actually I paid less, yes it may be outdated, but it could still whoop the X in stock form.

So let me guess, you will pay more, drive something that according to AMS in one the recent article will probably not make as much power as the previous model, and slower? Man I am going to go out and trade up now.



Edit: Sharing a similar engine as the new Srt-4 doesnt quite do it for me.

You are the biggest X fanboi ever. Get over it some people dont like driving slow heavy cars, and consider it a downgrade. Enjoy your Mitsubishi Mazdaspeed 6 cause we dont F@cking want one.

Low mileage 9 MR:
Selling for $25-26k w/5-year 60k mile warranty; Tax on a used car around $1250 (depending where you live). Total cost: $26,250-27,250

New X MR:
Figure around $40k w/3-year warranty; Tax around here would be another $3,000. Total cost: $43,000.

I think a better question is why someone would want to spend $16,000 more on the new X given its handicaps? Are you really getting $16,000 more car or performance or potential? Not in my book!
