2014 Best X Ever?

Could the 2014 be the best x ever made? After doing tons and tons of research iv learned a lot. A base 2014 GSR has a lot of features older X's never had. I feel like with this besing the last year of the X they made pretty good improvments. Thoughts?

As I said on EvoXForums...

The Navi/radio is better looking/more updated.

Everything else (that matters) is the same.

The touch screen radio is new, and it comes with 6 months free Sirius satellite radio. That's about it.

It's the last year when the Evo XI comes out or is announced. I've literally heard "this is the last year for the X" since 2010.

The the satelite radio is nothing new. Came with my 2008 for almost a year. I think they just forgot to shut it off. Has anyone officially heard that 2014 is the final year of the X or are they gonna make one last 2015 MY run?

I think I only got 3 months of Sirius with my '14.

(Of course, I've had Sirius on my Dish TV for years and never used it. And haven't used it in the car, either.)

The '14 does have the Nokia "HERE" traffic, weather, and fuel price updates via HDradio on the NavCom.
But doesn't have the vehicle (locks, etc) controls on the Nav Screen.


I think we'll be seeing the "last year" of the Xs right up until they give up trying to make the split hybrid XI work.
Diesel front wheels, electric rears: and they think they're gonna get the handling balanced? Don't hold your breath.
Ferrari looked at that concept (the other way around: electric fronts, gas rears), but abandoned the idea in favor of conventional RWD KERS for the LaFerrari.

I'm crossing my fingers for this. It'd be nice for Mitsu (as well as aftermarket) to develop more on the 4b11t. It's a great engine, it just hasn't had the years of aftermarket exploration like the 4g63 :/

Hell, we're barely at Tephra V2, and the 8's and 9's have what, V7?
