9 little things you like about your Evo
Well since there's a whole lot of hating going on about everyone's Evo in the other thread, I'd see what little things (IE not the performance) people like comparing them to a past vehicle. I'm coming from a base model DSM so here's some things that I didn't have and really enjoy now...
1. Power windows/locks/mirrors
2. Don't have to lift stuff up to get it out of the trunk
3. The convenience of 4 doors
4. The Recaro's they're just amazing
5. Stock 17" wheels that when covered in brake dust just get mistaken for a gunmetal/graphite color
6. Even without HID's my brights are BRIGHT
7. No more stupid nonworking hatch struts that resulted in many cranial bruises from my DSM
8. Storage, bigger glove box, and the box in the center which I didn't have in my DSM
9. My favorite... having soo many wiper speeds, especially ones slow enough for a light drizzle/mist. The DSM's slowest speed was too fast for those which meant I constantly had to turn them on/off.

I have to give my local mitsu dealer props, they replaced my wing without a complaint!!
