From Lanceregister forum

 

I beleive Thats In Uk besides its a FQ spec so thats All UK

 

I wonder what the weight of the evo X rs is going to be? will we get a RS?


I might be in on that one

 

The grill on that STI looks so much better. Should be an interesting test

 

In their market the RS there=GSR in the US, GSR there=MR in the US, if i remember correctly.

 

This is incorrect! The RS in Japan is the not the GSR here, they don't currently sell the Japan RS in the US. Since they don't have a MR trim in Japan, they allow you to combine several different packages together for their GSR trim. For example, you can get leather seats, and painted vents with a 5 speed manual. I think they would be more successful here in the US if they offered these same customizing options on our GSR trim.

 

Ok. So you can make a GSR into an MR more or less. So, a GSR can = MR and since we don't get an RS here as a stripped down model we get the GSR. But the GSR can't be had with most of the MR equipment. So the GSR is our version of an RS. Am i making myself clear? Also, from what i have read. The RS will never be shipped to the US for this model year of the EVO. Unless things have changed in the last 2 weeks.

 

japan always seems to get the better things/options

 

Is RS without AYC? S-AWC? and it weighs around 3200 lbs? I can't see this thing selling in US very well because it will be priced around 29K?? since it will have Brembos, Recaros? etc. like older RS had

 

Again, not sure where you're getting your info from...I have a copy of the Japanese Evolution X brochure in PDF format if you wanna see! You CAN get a 5-speed GSR with everything the US MR will have. Leather, BBS, Painted vents, Bilstein, Eibach, Chrome trim, EVERYTHING.

 

Dude! Your not reading what I'm saying. Stop trying to flame anyone on the forum because you think you know more. When all it really is, is just you not seeing what people are actually saying. Slow down and take in what people are really saying before you try and flame someone for something they are not saying. Because you just confirmed what i said from an earlier post above.

LOL! This post cracks me up and is a total waste of time. Damn, i hate dealing with this kind of crap.
