During our board meeting, do us Evo drivers a favor and tell them to release a 6 speed manual Evo X, not a 6 speed paddle shifter Evo X. The IXs had one, why cant we? I would trade my X in for that.

Understandable ... where did you order your X from .

Why such a long wait?

I ordered it from Moore Mitsubishi in Chantilly, VA. Still working out a price, but I have a rough estimate.

I wish I knew the exact reason, but it's because I'm ordering it as opposed to waiting for one I like to come to shore. I was pretty specific with what I wanted, so I figured it would have been quick to just order it. Cept now I'm thinking it may have been faster to just wait, haha. I ordered it in early Nov i believe, but should be built in about 2 weeks, then it makes it's great journey across sea.

Wish the GT SE came out sooner so i can get a cheap one around $17k or something since my car is broken now. Thinking about the Impreza. Can't afford the evo yet

Why do you say that? Do we know what kind of AWD system the SE gets?

It's basically like the outlander sport's AWD system. Nothing to write home about. The WRX definitely has a much more advanced AWD system.

^^^ Thanks. Actually I was thinking about purchasing the SE or an impreza but I'm still leaning towards the SE just because its easier to work on and don't have to worry about engine failures as I have been hearing.

They say is AWD but that's not really true. I saw on youtube that you can switch it to 2 wheel drive and then is says 4WD on the switch not AWD. Am I wrong?

I'd definitely like more information about that. All the articles I read claimed it was the same system the outlander sport had, but you know magazines can be with information. Anyone have more info?
