i think the IX looks somehow less aggresive the the VIII especially the front bumper

I can respect that. Seen IXs in photos and Xs in photos and the Xs look like any of the European cars out there. Blah. But you're right the cars do look better in person. Should call the Mitsubishi designers to delay the sepuku ceremony until later, shouldn't I?

I will buy the faster one. I could care less about looks. It could look like an actual turd for all I care.

If it looks ugly in pictures it will look ugly in person.

now that you've added voting but failed to seperate 8 and 9, I voted for the XI in teh hopes that it would return to the old aggressive looks instead of grandma's grocery getter like the above mentioned RS4, the X, and the IX's front end.

Haha, my buddy here at UMD did that chop. Looks pretty badass but I like the X the way mistu designed it.

I told him never to combine suby styling with an Evo (outside of the headlights...he has a nicely modded WRX).

I like the X because it kind of looks like an updated Galant VR4...

At the same time I don’t like the X because it doesn’t look like an Evo. My vote went for the IX.

i prefer the 9 over the 8 becuase its front end is cleaner
