How are you liking the X so far? Give us some details. Oh and BTW there is another thread just like this.

I evolved from old school Chevy muscle >>> FWD inline Hondas >>> WRX then STi >>>> EVO IX RS. No X yet, but we'll see. I really like my IX RS.

I love the car. The Evo's all grown up now and that's great, but I do miss the rawness of the previous Evolutions. I dislike the new steering feel, it needs more power, the electronic driving aids will take some getting used to, and the pedals make heel/toe difficult. But, it's just an all round nicer car and the interior is a nice place to be. It's also a little more subtle which I love.

Just curious, how different is the steering? Can you describe it?
