Help me choose an evo model!

Hey guys im sure you guys have heard this " I CANT DECIDE WHETHER TO GET EVO 9 GRS or EVO X GSR" i know this argument is getting old but dammn it is a night mare and its getting me crazy . I love the 4g63 better engine stronger and other hand the evo x i love moddern that the x has newer car , the reason i dnt know what to get is that i dont want to regret my self on the that i get. Now my intensions of getting on evo is to have it my DD n have some power im not intrested in beating the car like drag racing or any of that hard beating. I never had the experience of buying a new car but want to get a head turner when i get an evo. Also the reason i want to get the evo x is bc right now i drive an oz rally 2003 and all the interior is almost the same as the evo 9 and want to change it a little. I mean i can keep on going but can anyone that had the experience of owning both 9 n x tell me just a lil feeler of whats better for down the road that evo 9 are gona be rare and harder to find than the evo x are more out their. And again if some one can just take me to the experience . Thanks guys

Whenever asked "which car?" or "what's the best....?" the answer is always the same: "What do you want to do with it?"

Well i want it to have it as DD and of course a little power wount hurt but not too much power that the car will be braking down bc of the power. I wanted to just enjoy it drive it all year long i would like to take it to a autocross maybe once to see what the car is made of and have fun but other than that just cruise. I would like to keep it almost stock n still turning heads. Hope i explained it some what right ?

Mitsu stopped building EvO's after the 9

300lbs heavier / turbos on the south side of the motor / Alum block / down graded rear susp members / poor fuel pickup in the tank

You going about this all wrong--- your not going to make money on any cat you buy, your car wont keep the same value in 5 yrs. shouldn't be in the decision equation.
