X-RS pics
I agree with your comments and congrats on the fit purchase as well. I also owned an rs for that very reason that it was faster than the mr and I didn't even mod it yet.
But it wasn't just the fact that your saving weight. You are buying a race car out of the box. You buy an MR or a gsr and you get a fast plush car. You buy an RS and you get just a race car.
I drove without a radio for the entire time I owned the car just because I loved the sound of the car.
People who buy a GSR or an MR are the same people who buy a jaguar instead of a Lincoln because it has a cat on the hood.

I thought from all the magazine reviews on here about the Evo X. Only the GSR with the 5 speed and the MR with the sst was going to be available. Then in the reviews they also said something about a RS being released later?.

they should make the RS RWD.. because we all know that our personal technicians and mechanics will "upgrade" the car as soon as we get home from the dealership... you know, cause the RS is ONLY meant to be tracked, not driven redlight to redlight..
plain and simple, people want the RS for the reduction of weight materials... myself personally, i wouldn't buy a 30k car with manual windows and locks, regardless of the 20 more lbs it adds...
the same people who buy RS evos are the same ones who won't buy a convertible because someone told them that compared to the coupe of the same model, the convertible will run .00017 seconds slower than the coupe... it's retarded to argue which one is better because those who are sided either way CANNOT be convinced otherwise!

Fact is, people buy the RS for various reasons-cost, weight, performance, etc.
BTW-lots of people avoid convertibles because they are not as rigid and handling is affected.
... My mind is playing tricks on me. I thought I read that the Evo IX RS looks like a regular Lancer. Sorry.

I think there needs to be some kind of test in order to become a member on this board. Bunch of e-tards on here with no clue about any evo history, its recockulous.
Not sure how many times everyone has already said that the JDM RS has always come with steelies and ****ty brakes, but yet still people are shocked at this fact. hahahaha man I cant wait to see the type of people that buy the X's.
