The writer went to a press junket, recited the promotional literature, and based his determinations on his butt dyno. I'd have far less issues with the article if it were written by a forum member, but it's shameful to present it as journalism.

I hope this is a typo in this article (RE: seats)!!!!

The GSR is only offered with a five-speed manual and doesn't include the BBS wheels, two-piece rotors, Bilstein struts, Eibach springs, or the great Recaro seats — those are all unique to the MR model

the bottom line is that the wild tiger has been tamed to stay in the zoo. It is still wild but civiclized and will attract more mass

I have a copy of the dealer description template, it is an error. Recaro seats are in both of the std. MR and GSR base descriptions. I think it is only a leather difference between the seats on both models.

I just have one question dude, seeing as you own an SI and have yet to own an Evo. Have you driven the IX yet? You seem very, very optomistic about the X, but I don't see how you can base judgement with respect to the IX if you haven't driven one.

Not trying to **** you off, just curious is all... .

Out of your lifestyle how? If you're a pharmacist, you could afford a IX as the track warrior, the SI for the commute, and a 335i for your daily driver . That's what I would do. Then I'd buy a 100,000 dollar house with a 50,000 dollar garage right next to it . Ahhh...maybe someday.

He's a pharmacist, not a drug-dealer
