Evo X weight... which model?

When they weighed the car... which model did they weigh? Just the base GSR? The GSR with the SSS package?

I am looking at pricing at them, but I don't want a sunroof and the stereo and all of that... how much weight would the audio and sunroof and such add anyway?

One other question. I really do like the aero kit, but for 1500.00 or so from the dealer would I be better off to just buy a nice aftermarket kit and have it painted or would that wind up costing just as much in the long run?

Yeah, but I really do like the look of it and i've seen several people say it has helped them to cut down on chips and such from Mitsu's crappy paint.

Yeah? I'm just wondering when they show the weight of the car if it is just the basic GSR or with any other packages.

What does everyone who has... or doesn't have the aero kit? Does it help to keep the nicks and such down on the paint? Would the mud flaps do just as good of a job? Am I better off to buy a nice kit and have it painted as I had said before?

If you go to the Mitsu website they show different weight depending on whether you choose GSR or MR.
