Any regrets

Just wondering if anyone here ever regretted getting the X. Do you wish you would have gotten an older one, gone with Subaru or just flat out gotten a different car.

^ +1 and the black interior panels instead of the fake carbon fiber stuff we've got.

Only owned my X for a few months though, but no, not a single regret.

Got the 2012, HAHA kidding. No regrets except maybe I didn't know about these cars a long time ago. I have been suffering driving a Range Rover around the last few years when I could have had an Evo.

I've had mine for about 6 months now and no regrets at all. Not once did I cross shop cars so if I hadn't gotten the Evo I wouldn't have gotten anything at all. Only thing is like the other guys said, I wish would've waited for a 2012 but oh well..no biggie

I wish I would've gotten an evo 9 as it would've been cheaper. But for a DD the X is better. It all depends on the goals you have, mine were more suited to an evo 9 or 8 even but I don't dislike the X at all. Just that I could've saved some coin going with the 8/9.

The only regret I have is that I couldn't afford the premium package.

i regretted getting the X because i hated seeing such a beautiful machine being parked outside with no cover while i'm at work, and the bug splatters via my commute

solution? got a second car!

Regrets? Are you kidding? I love the X so much, I bought 2 2011 GSR's, one for me and one for my son. My son's is already heavily modded and is very fast. Mine is still stock, but that will change shortly. I sold a built 2007 Civic Si, low mileage and bought my Evo. Even stock, the Evo is faster and does everything very well. And, the looks you get from others is priceless.

I regret that my car is always down and I only put 20k on it since 2008.

I love the car when it runs though...

The only thing I regret is being so gullible. I was really going into the dealer to check out the ralliarts. They had none in stock, but had a used X they just got in. They said they had another buyer lined up, and I shouldn't have believed them, but after the test drive it only took half an hour to sign the papers lol. Absolutley LOVE the car though. Just wish I price shopped for it as I probably coulda spent less or gotten a new one.

No regrets at all. Just wish it had a lot more power with stock spool rate but you get what you spend
