i see alot of people with lancer evo IX

why dont people buy the MR or is it the same thing

im 15 years old and wont be driving for 2 years soo sorry but you will be hearing lots of stupid questions from me

but this is my favorite car and am excited about buying one

i want to buy a lancer evo MR and put a cf hood with cf sideskirts a body kit and some new other stuff that i havent decided

can i upgrade the MR? is it worth it or is the IX better or something

thanks for your help

 

Ok, this is not how the site works. I don't expect us to hear lots of stupid questions from you, because before you post again, you'll go read the forum rules at the top of this forum. It says that you MUST SEARCH before posting a thread. Had you followed that rule, you'd know there is a big difference between a regular IX and an MR.

If you won't be driving for 2 years, then there won't even be any IXs other than some used ones. The X will be out, and there likely won't be an MR. You said you planned to get an MR, but you don't even know what it is?

The worst possible thing you could do is buy a $36k race car and immediately spend a few thousand on CF body parts to make it look stupid. I know you're a little kid, but the Evo is not a toy. 2F2F is a movie - that is not reality.

 

first of all, the evo is NOT a good first car. Second of all the MR is the most expensive evo that is a somewhat limited edition. It has an aluminum roof, HIDS, 6 speed, upgraded suspension and other exterior parts. IF the evo is your favorite car it sounds like you need to do some research on it before "buying it".

 

The IX is the generation, which is a the 2006 model. The MR is the trim level. The IX comes a either an RS, GSR, or MR. (same for the VIII)

 

thanks nudge

for the rest i never said it was gunna be my first car my first car is gunna be a volkswagon beetle lancer will prolly be my 2nd or 3rd

but i joined this forum to research

its also personal preferance on what you think looks good or bad, i also hate 2f2f but i liked the first one

soo w.e. idk how you treat everyone here but please dont look down on me because im young

 

Ok, so you're not going to get an Evo when you start driving in 2 years? I don't understand the questions then. By the time you get an Evo, IXs will be 5 years old. It's more than personal preference on what looks good or bad. What you said would be absolutely heinous on an Evo, especially a stock one. It doesn't matter if you like the movie or not - you're trying to mimic the cars from 2F2F, which were absolutely monstrosities.

If you joined the forum to research, then good, start doing it. You research by searching, not by asking basic questions that have already been answered. Good luck finding your answers, but I don't think any of them will help you, since you won't have an Evo for so long.

 

i saw the white evo here actually
https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...d.php?t=197490

ive been researching for 2 days while they go through the verification of my account nad what not, but my first thread and ive already been turned off of this forum

the white car got alot of compliments too

i also thought that if i started now i could find out if the evo is rite for me and what i would want to do to it

 

um the white car only has a CF hood, no cf side skirt or body kit.

 

i know but it gave me the idea of the cf

 

were not looking down on your cause your young... things to look down on you are as follows

- you want cf as your mods

- you didnt search

- you didnt read rules

research more, you dont even know the basics, what models the evo comes in. keep learning, maybe someday you'll have one, take care of it

dont let these guys scare you away, just understand when you ask stupid questions you are going to get treated like you did.

 

The white car is an EVO VIII not a IX.

 

Dont mind these guys, if your into the evo, it is definitely something to stride for. Honestly though, you need to learn A LOT before you even think about owning a real beast like the evo. most people here have been enthusiast before you were born, and Im only 21 and I remember starting out where you did when you were only 9 or 10, posting random *** questions on honda-tech about my gs-r. I would go for something a little bit more sporty for your first car and learn about cars with that rather than driving a beetle that is not exacly mod friendly. honda's got my foot in the door and I learned about how cars actually worked and ditched the ideas my retard 3rd period auto teacher taught me. if your going to be an enthusiast... be one,

 

I knew i was forgeting something in my last post

 

you're basing your evo mods on a picture you found. but the thing is in two years time you can change your taste in mods and/or even cars. the reason not everyone buys an mr is because it cost more than the regular ix or the rs. research mitsubishi's website to find out the difference in the models before you post up threads that can easily be answered through simple research. start worrying about your mods and the evo when you actually are about to get one, it's pointless to start researching this now when the evo models change every year or two, by the time you actually get a license or car there's going to be a whole new market of cars.

 

+1 for everyone after the original post
