1) The dealer told me Octane Blue will be a 1 year color...is this true? I wouldnt think he would lie to me since he seemed honest and true..

2) Is there only a SMALL difference in insurance from the Evo 9 and X? I got a quote on the 9 and it was like 700 dollars a month..

The Evo X was not that much slower than the 9...He took me around a corner and it blew my mind.
how old r u.. and how is your driving record.. because you live in SC... your ins SHOULD be dammn cheap. Im thinking about buying the X also.. (i got 10K to throw down )
so im in your same shoes

Evo is at 460 a month.

ooh ok.. now i see! yeah man.. that sux!!!! i think you should wait untill your record improves... or just get some mom n pops ins company (full coverage) on your own

Its too late lol The cars in my garage! I will get pics soon but I am really lazy!
Since I am in college my insurance is being paid on behalf of my mother. She is extremely concerned about the repairs and coverage after an accident so she will only go to a "well known" company ( ). I am driving extremely slow in the evo for now, gotta respect the power!

Have you looked into State Farm. My record is far from perfect but I pay $169, used to be almost $300 with Geico. In another month it's going to go down even further once I turn 25.

I took the dealer stick info thing that shows the price and stuff off the back passenger window, but it left behind some gunky stuff... I got it removed though, used some WD-40 and windex

Haha no leather package for the GSR in the USA..but you dont need it!
Yeah it looks even better in person...the blue is stunning on the X. The pics made it look similar to the STi blue but its a bit different.
Last night I went cruising through Brea Canyon Road if anyone knows where that is. Nice tight corners, couple hairpins, fun stuff, just cruised no racing Had the STi and another Evo 9 with me.
