It looks like a lap counter/chronometer (a-la-Porsche). I like it, it adds to the more upscale look of the interior.

gotcha, its an overall concern... acceleration and handling have been compensated to a point, however trimming the fat would help in braking and corning, which i didnt think of... every little bit helps i suppose

The Audi RS8 is amazing...they elevation tested them here in Flagstaff and I drove next to one for awhile and it sounded as nice as it looks

The models next to the Lamborghini are amazing

Any sightings or talk about the Corvette SS/Z07/Blue Devil? If you aren't aware of the projected names it is supposed to be supercharged with numbers in the 650/600 range...I would love them to make something even faster and better interior wise than the Z06 before my Dad buys one of those...then when I finish my work with the Evo I can still spank his 100k Chevy...

nice pics btw...looks like a great time, next year I am doing Geneva free room and show passes with another forums owner
I was supposed to take pics of the Corvette SS/Z07/Blue Devil for a friend here at work, but it wasn't anywhere to be found.

I'll have to look. Two of my friends that went as well might have some more pictures of it.

2 - There is no way a car with 235 R-Compounds on the front and 185 street tires on the rear is going to handle good at all.

This is all even with a massive 200lbs removed from the car.
Falken azenis in the rear, rims with slicks in the front, yes it would whoop your Evo's *** in Autox

Maybe I'm over-reacting, maybe not. When Chrysler gets involved with anything that I like, I am not too happy about it. American engineers tend to botch things up, that is why I love Japanese designed cars. The DSM's were great cars, however they had terrible reliability and terrible handling (Thanks again to Chrysler!). I just hope they didn't do the same thing to the Evo X chassis.

I hear it is definetly going to have cruise. The manager of my local Mits. dealer told me one of the only things he knows for sure about the X is that it is going to have it.

Yes, as MRDA1 said the video says that for the first time ever the evolution model will come with cruise control.

That's your huge question? Why not do a little research and find out on your own? Please stop acting like the newbie that you aren't. You even suspected that you would get flamed, so why even post such nonsense? What a waste of a thread. Hope the mods delete or at least lock this one.

yo, seriously......what is your problem? i said in my original post i knew i might take some crap for this but are you for real? do you have some issues with anger management?

Personally because of the 8 other responses on the thread that WERE VERY HELPFUL it doesn't seem like this was that out of the question or "Nonsense" as you put it.

and if you have read previous threads about the evo 8 and 9 you'd realize that whenever there is a thread concerning "whats the one thing you'd change on your evo?" CRUISE CONTROL always comes up.

get over yourself and go take your meds, you'll feel better.

No, not it at all, really. Allow me to rephrase my original response:

Why post such a stupid question? Mods, please delete this thread ASAP. The creator shouldn't be so lazy to find the answer to such a simple question.

bro

you really need to relax. no one else is getting so worked up about this..........

it was just a question. may not be very important to you, but it might be to others.

if it isn't to you, just look the other way.
