It all depends on what you like , not everyone likes the same think. Make ur mind up and get what u like. I personally like the look of IX , I went to Detroit auto show and saw the X and made my mind right on the spot. Good luck with ur choice.

Did you not read my post? I own the IX because I like it, NOT I like it because I own the IX. I just bought my IX. I was considering of waiting for the X but when I found out what it looked like, I actually said this, "I NEED TO HURRY AND GET THE IX BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE." Kid you not. There you go. Your claim that I somehow am biased because I own a IX is dead wrong. Next.

Not surprised to hear this. That is EXACTLY why I bought my IX a few months ago. See, I'm not the only crazy SOB out there for making my decision the way I did. I agree with SCC magazine: the IX MR will be a collector's car in a few decades. Too bad I'll enjoy it too much for it to last that long. Life's too short to give your kids all the fun!!!

Again im not speaking for everyone i know eveyrone has their own oppinion, but i strongly think you guys feel this way now because you guys own the 9 and the X isn't out yet. Im still going to bet that there will be trade ins =). NEXT

If you bought it cause you like 9 then good FOR YOU but why do you insist on portraying hate towards the X then? You say it looks like a wannabe audi and stuff. If you like the 9 then you don't have to BASH the X. You are downing it because you have the 9 and it reinforces that you made the right choice, it makes you feel better lol

Only time will tell which car is better, but im going to put my money on mitsu engineers and them not ****ing this up.

Listen, if I like the X, I would have waited. But I don't, so I bought the IX before they come out with the knockoff Audi. It's that simple. The end.

I honestly don't give a **** what you like, but if you are bashing the X before it's even out then you my friend are a retard.

The way i see it is you are bashing it to reinforce that you made the right decision on pulling the trigger on a 9. WE WILL SEE IF THIS REMAINS TRUE ONCE IT IS OUT.

The 9 is dope don't get me wrong but you don't know anything about the X only the LOOKS, looks is subjective, so i don't blame you if you think your 9 looks awesome, BUT you decided on a car based on looks lol. POWER TO YOU END OF DISCUSSION.

YES YOUR 9 IS FA5t3R ! i hope you feel better

You still haven't explained how you want the X to look and how it looks like an AUDI. Details please. I hope you weren't looking for an 8 with a different front end for the Evolution X

Here you go:

However, I don't want an Audi. If I do, I wouldn't get a knockoff. This RS is $66,000 base.

Who cares what it looks like. The Evo is not about looks. It is about performance. As for me I will choose the faster one. From the little that I know I am pretty sure that the Evo X will be the fastest Evo ever.

The Evo X is the best looking Evo in my opinion. The only opinion that should matter to you is you own opinion. I don't care if the Evo looks like an Audi, Volvo, Acura, and a Lexus. Something will always look like something. Deal with it.

There is no point in arguing if the basis of your argument is based around an opinion. Opinions are not fact, so they mean nothing.

What is the point of this thread? Zenman, do you really need someones elses opinion to reinforce you own? If you do, you are lame.

One thing i do know is that if people compare the X to an audi or lexus what does that tell u? It tells me that its a dam good looking car! Ask yourself this would drive an Audi or a Lexus I know i would. Alot of cars look like other cars . But u cant base anything on a concept car this should have never been posted yet the x final design isnt even out yet! Its like asking who is hotter Ms. january2006 or Ms. october 2008 welllllllllllll whos hotter its all a matter of taste and u havent even seen one of the women yet! But we all know that the X will out perform the IX it not fiction its a FACT. Mitsu isnt going to make a new EVO thats isnt an upgrade from the last gen u know it I know it HELL everybody knows that that is the truth. I love every EVO ever made there alll sweet in there own design

Haha you people are too much. First you say we're biased. Second you say it doesn't look like a Audi. Then you say Audis look nice. Now you say who cares what it looks like if it has power. Well a lot of people do. Nobody's going to buy a Pontiac Aztec even if it has 300hp. Likewise, I CHOOSE to buy a IX rather than the X. Get over it. Of course my OPINION is not fact. But look at the poll results. There are more beholders of eyes that think the VIII and IX look better. Not fact but better than some of your OPINIONS that's for sure.

YUP Zenman got owned left and right. lol

IF one cannot see that the X follows the lines of an EVO then you my friend are BLIND. IT might look a bit more futuristic but the future is HERE. Aggressive front, 4 doors, big wing, fender flares, big brakes, still TURBOED i dont get how it isn't an EVO.
