congrats on the MR red dragon, it was a shame to see what happened in the accident to the RA.

Interesting that you got it from Vancouver Mitsubishi, they are one of the worst in BC haha. The ADvans will look wicked sick on the ride! Good luck with everything.

Also, in BC(the west coast), people that put a deposit down for the GTR got refunded their deposit and was told first come first serve, the mark up went upwards to around $80K ++, they have arrived here off the docks and be at the dealership shortly.

Hahaha living in South Africa, thats cheap for a car. Over here a basic evo X without any options is $57 500 USD. My ES 2008 lancer cost me the equivalent of $23 750. You americans have extremely cheap cars so dont complain

the GTR will be 69-71 here in the states. the dealers out here have no intention of marking them up either. i doubt the GTR will hit 90k anywhere out here, and if it does, whoever pays that is a moron

Finally got my MR in Saskatoon. A few things that i have noticed.
1. The car is very stable at high speeds. Steering wheel is very firm compared to other cars.
2. The car is alot stiffer compared to my bros 08 STI. Evo feels more sporty. Sti feels more comfortable. Evo seat are more supportive. Sti seats are softer.
3. High beams are part of the HID. there is a metal flap that goes up when you turn on the High Beams. Light beside the projectors are your DRLS.
4. You are able to operate and change the settings on the navi while moving. The STi navi requires you to stop the car before changing the settings.

More pics

well out here, in louisiana, there have already been two pre sold at a dealership in baton rouge. one went for 71, the other went for 73. in lake charles they are getting one in that will sticker around 69-70 and there are no plans to mark them up. depends on the market whether they get marked up or not. nobody around here is going to pay 70 let alone 70+ dealer mark up. when the EVO's came out in 03 the dealership in lake charles got 2. one sold, and the other one sat for almost a two years, then got transfered to another dealership in texas. since then they never got anymore. there's no market for expensive turbo charged all wheel drive performance cars here so they sell for sticker or less here because nobody wants to pay sticker for them, let alone over that.
