p0300 on evo x!

got the new march issue of motortrend in the mail today. upon reading the comparison article of the evo x gsr vs. wrx sti was suprised to read this in the sidebar titled: mr for your money. " the mr's 58.2-second lap time puts it just ahead of the sti, though it could've beat the gsr had our test vehicle not been plagued by a high-rpm hesitation. mitsubishi claims to have already solved this problem and finalized the ecu software that has delayed the release of the mr. look for a full test soon." wtf, over 36k and they can't seem to fix the misfire/ hesitation issue from the previous models (evo 8/9). with the evo being the factory's halo car, you would think that there would be a fix to this issue by now. let alone all of the loyal evo owners that are just fed up with this type of bs from mitsubishi and their dealerships. at one point i really considered buying the new evo x, but after reading this, i don't think so. it just shows what type of problems the owner will be dealing w/ in the future.

It still wouldn't solve the misfire problem. You just wouldn't know about it . This is why I'm not going to buy a 1st year Evo X... If I even buy one.
