So who traded in what to get a X
Nah, it's not that bad... Aftermarket Alcon or perf friction rotors and pads are much cheaper and better than stocks (I used carbotechs)...
The main issue is cost though... Tires, tranny fluids etc... I did miss the stick...
If I drove my GTR around to say "look at me in my GTR" I could have easily afforded to keep it... Unfortunatly I track and autoX and it's too expensive to live life in a GTR for me right now with that... And 3 cars was getting tough (lack of space and time)....
The evoX is good on track, can autoX, can rallyX, hold my daughter, be driven in rain and snow and blend in more in traffic ( I was tired of conversations at red lights and gas stations... Not that talking cars isnt nice.. I'm just in a rush always lol)... .. The evo can do everything while the GTR can only do 1 .. Maybe 2 of those

I don't know man, I get a lot of red light thumbs up and chatting when I drive my evo. It doesn't blend in, in traffic as much as you may think. It's pretty rare just like the gtr, but I hear everything else your saying about it's function over the gtr for the money.
Traded in sometime being deployed to get my OB X, wife picked it up for me now it is just sitting at home getting driven once a week. Few more months and ill be back with it. But the trade is most satisfying and most def worth it.

06 sti with mods (330/380). suby was night and day faster than my 08 MR, but this is more quiet, comfy, has a sunroof, navi and sound package, and of course handles better. 
I do miss the helicopter/dumptruck sound the suby made, but I digress.
