I don't have an Evo yet, but...

If I could find one new, I would ****** up an VIII or IX in a heart beat, but since I can't, I'm getting a '12 X. I fell in love with the Evo back from the VII, and in my mind they only got better after that.

I've only ever driven an 8 and a 9. They were both about the same to me. I guess, if anything a 9 MR with a 5 speed.

2006 WW 9 RS is the only other one id trade for in the states.

and btw, the basis of an MR is a 6 speed, so unless you do a conversion to 5 speed you aiint finding one around here.

OP, do a poll, easier for people to read results

I have an 03 VIII and have for what almost 7 years now.

I also would not trade it for any other EVO made. Too much B/S/T over the years.

Wouldn't mind a VI TME though to add to the collection.

I have a 03 Evo VIII. I hear a lot of good things with the IX so that peeks my attention but I'm happy with my VIII.

I have a new Evo X GSR, but if I had been able to find a brand new Evo IX, I would have bought that instead. So my choice would be an Evo IX.
