How do you upgrade? Do they upgrade front and rear or just front? Are they the new new MR seats or what? Pics of your seats?

Only regret here was not getting my 2010 GSR sooner!

Being serious though, the MR isn't capable (yet) of holding the kind of power that I am planning on making.

Not MR seats. Mitsubishi sells an upgrade where they take off the cloth cover off the GSR seats and replace it with the leather. Includes door panels and center armrest cover. I think the heading you can get by just ordering them from Mitsu.

Oh snap, looks damn good. Does it look weird having different materials front to back?

No because it is a full interior leather package. The "other" forum has lots of pics on this.

Would I like if my car had the MR seats, rims, and Bilsteins? Sure. But never at the cost of having to own a TC-SST. I wouldn't own an Evo without a clutch pedal.

Zero regrets.

I fully agree with this statement. The SE should have been a MR with 5-speed rather than a GSR with SST (and a few other MR goodies).

Which forum? I wanna see more pics of this! How is the leather quality? Super soft? Sorry

At first my only regret was getting the car in RR. That was the last color I wanted. But it was the end of 2009 and they were making room for the 2010's, the only color left was RR. But I got a KILLER deal on the car (GSR) $34,000 out the door with Aero and Navi and 0% APR for 5 years. I couldn't say no to that. Plus the color grew on me now so I have absolutely NO regrets!! GSR all the way The Evo X MR's are for girls that can't drive with three pedals

This is a toughey for me.

I am traditionaly a manual guy, but the newer crop of dual clutch auto's are nice. I've ridden in a ralliart and the shifts were great.

I intially bought my GSR only because at the time MR's were limited to ~350 ft/lbs of tq or so. I knew one day I might push past that.

Little did I know that SSP (and maybe others) could develop a clutch pack for it to handle more than that (I don't know the limit now).

I don't mind manually shifting, I enjoy it...but in traffic it can suck. What I don't like is the notchy feel and the master cyclinder isues.

On the other hand I hear MR's kinda take off from the light kinda weakly unless in launch mode, which is kinda overkill for the street.

Now that I know an MR can handle more than 350ft/lbs of tq, I would probably get an MR.....maybe..IDK.

ps..to busy to check for spelling errors.
