Hi All from Bakersfield, CA

Whats up all, new member here from Bakersfield, CA.

I have a 2012 PB GSR. I've had it for less than a year now and clocked in over 18,000 miles on it and I have come to love it as well get annoyed by a few of its quirks which i am sure all of you know.


What I like:

It is quick, after owning a certain SUV with plenty of get up and go it all of sudden doesn't seem so adequate after rolling in the evo. Even after owning a sport bike the evo seems adequately quick and entertaining.

Handles like a dream. It is tight and highly responsive, though i do notice i take every turn just a bit faster than i used to.

Great Seats!!

Bluetooth in the stereo system is great. Always pairs with my phone and always starts and stops when it should.

It is quite a looking with its aggressive front fascia and big red calipers peeking from its wheels. I get lots of comments and looks about it especially from the younger crowd.

What I dont like:

It is sort of a rattle bucket as many threads here clearly mention. Rattles just spring up on this thing from everywhere. I plan to take it apart and quieting it down where I can but man... no modern car should be like this.

Mitsubishi cut costs on painting some of the areas that are less seen. I see them all the time and they bug me a little.

Summary:

It is by no means a perfect car but it is so capable in what it excels in that it is easy to overlook its deficiencies in some areas. I see my self owning this awesome piece of machinery for a long long time even if some assembly is required.
