It was the same price for a IX and a VIII MR with 17k miles? Damn, glad you went with the IX. Who cares about a 6 spd and bilsteins when you can have a brand new, restyled car.

You can always put the IX bumper on the VIII...he already has the VIII from what I recall from his last post. Just keep the VIII and get the new bumper

did you even read what he said ? he already has the IX. Bumpers are easily interchangeable yes, but the mivec motor and revised turbo (larger compressor wheel) is not the same story. He made a good decision.

He just has buyer's remorse.

If those were my two choices, I would have gone with the IX Gsr as well.
