So who traded in what to get a X
I have an 03' Evo VIII that I am very fond of, but I just can't get over how damn good the X looks and performs. My VIII is a track ready daily driver, that has given me loads of grins... however, things like acd, ayc, s-awc, cruise control, navi, just make me feel warm inside... what should I do?

Traded my 06 Lotus Elise in.........my only regret is that I keep having to explain to people why I traded in the semi exotic Elise for a "LANCER". That freaking kills me when people call it a "LANCER". I just grit my teeth, smile and politely say..all while keeping my teeth clenched tightly together, "it's not a lancer, it's an EVO dammit".
Sorry to break it to you but technically it is a Lancer........no matter how you look at it.

Traded '06 Evo IX for the X. In the beggining I did have some regretts. I missed the hard acceleration and go cart feel of the IX. But I am slowly appreciating the X just as much. (especially the cornering ability) I will say though that the IX-in my opinion- is Mitsubishi's pinnacle street legal rally car you could take in the gravel and dirt, something my X will have a harder time doing well.
07 Tacoma fully loaded, only had it for a year, before that a 05 SRT4 with all the bolt ons and Mopar Stage 2, yeah it felt faster than the X, but the X is so much nicer of a car i love it.
Trade in my 05 Evo VIII for the X here, was a mid 12's clutch limited car so lightly modded. Missed the leather and sunroof but the new car just feels better overall and it has cruise control and a better stereo system. I also dodged a timing belt, new wheels/tires, front brakes and a clutch job by trading in a few weeks ago. Got a few parts coming in that should get me back to mid 12's and then some.
