I loved mt EVO VIII but in my opinion the X is better for my needs. As soon as I saw the new "X" a few years back I wanted one, I just loved the look. The driving characteristics of the X are great with the ability to adjust power front to rear. I don't know what the consensus is for most people on the Twin Clutch transmission but I love it.

As for mods i am up in the air, I had KW V3's on my VIII and some go fast mods that I really enjoyed but I can't decide what direction I want to go with the X. To start with I need to figure out a way to hook up an iPod and for some reason I want to kill the spoiler any insight would be great.

Thanks again everyone!!!
