Regarding your shift light question. I have the 2012 GSR and it doesn't have one, so I am assuming they don't.
Hello Everyone !
Got my car 2 weeks ago and finally got time to show some pictures. I thought the 2012 has a shift light ? Definitely didnt see this feature.
Quick Review of the Evo X: (My review will be comparing a previously owned Tuned E92 335i)
For those thinking about buying the car, the biggest difference to consider between the Evo and BMW is the gears on the manual transmission. Evo is very short , and BMW is very long. Personally I prefer BMW's transmission because if i remember correctly (rough estimate)
BMW First gear was 45mph !!
BMW Second gear has 70mph !! Evo only 55mph on second gear
So you will be shifting alot more and the mitsu is always in high RPMs
Other than that the car's handling is amazing, the steering wheel feel is lighter compare to the 335i or the 1M but once you go into the corner the steering wheel has excellent response and points where you want to go.
The main reason i got this car is for some autoX and tracking events, should be a fun car!
you cant tell from the picture but it has full front clearbra + 35% tints all around.
Already order the ETS Intake , ETS UICP, Grimmspeed 3port, as soon as I put them on I'm going to Ivey tune

Forget about 335i check out the new 3 series 328i which is a 4cyl turbo and wait a few months when the x drive is available on the 328 that's gona be the ultimate car my friend. BMW 4cyl turbo awd 6 speed 4 door spot pkg trust me that's gona be one sick car.
And do you also mean that the Octane Blue is going to be replaced with, THIS Blue?:
Where'd u get that info!??...

I just bought an Evo this weekend and was told the same thing at the dealer. He said a guy from corpo, Cypress, CA told him while they showed off their new electric car.
Nice...I honestly wouldn't know what to drive other than the Evo - I could never afford an M3 and probably cannot drive anything fwd...
Congrats on the Evo!
(I prob picked the wrong year to get WW...so much for being novel...)

Sorry yes you are correct I was referring to Octane Blue Pearl. And yes, it is being replaced with Cosmic Blue as currently found on the Outlander Sport:
^ GTFO!!!! I want one! 
Hope you're right!... Time to stop modding plans on my '11 RR until the 2013s come out... hope both of you are right!
Well... hold your horses jazket, I don't even know if it's going to look good on an Evo
Time for some photoshop...
