Might just come out with the RS and MR trim in a similar order to before. Start with the straight Evo, then RS, then the MR.

I heard the RS was going to be super lightweight, so it is going to be offered as a three wheel option only.

Well I really wish that things would play out like this... since the evo X is supposed to have this more upscale feel or whatever.. im guessing that the standard X might not have the hard core edge of the current evo.. this is where the RS comes in!.. It be great if there was a pretty big difference between the RS and the standard model, but Id like to see some additional performance items on that car.. make the RS the stripped out bad *** performance model, then an MR could follow with all the trimmings and the comfort of the standard model.

I figure if the 4B11T is all aluminum it should be as strong as the STi engine Wait a miniute perhaps that's not a good thing

I hope there is an RS, but I still hate the idea of paddle shifting this kind of car. I guess I like my cars more raw.
