Your correct the TME is just like an FQ, We don't see a lot of TMEs they are starting to become more of a collectors item where we see plenty of 8s and 9s.

And don't forget the TME is the JAPAN factory upgrade.... Once for the life time ...
With weight reduction etc. The FQ's don't have weight reductions.

7-9 are all slower than the 6 TME from what I've driven. However, the 9 is more tractable down low and the ride is also more comfortable.

Guys, guys.. we are talking about ONLY the models that were released to the US. Afterall, we are indeed, in the US - not Japan.

Having said that, let's keep the comparisons capped between VIII-IX-X.

Therefore,

IX > VIII > X - stock for stock..

I'd rather have a LHD TME. It's even MORE rare!

Just got done freshening up a LHD converted TME it was pretty nice. Had Euorpean conversion done before it was shipped to the US and it had a fully digital based dash to control everything for climate and such. Was quite nice!
