Coming from a '09 ralliart and then going to evo, don't waste your time with a ralliart if you can afford an evo. Don't get me wrong, the ralliart is a fun car, but the evo is in a completely different league.

No. There should be. 07 was skipped because technically the IX production ended in 06. 09 in the US was skipped due to overstock of 08's. There isn't a massive inventory of 2010 EVO's so definitely expect the refreshed 2011 with the WRX line receiving improvements for 2011.

Mitsubishi has only been selling 4k cars a month TOTAL. They are super hurting right now. I wouldn't expect a 2011 Evo. I'd say chances are about 50/50.

Look around there are definitely deals out there for any one of those cars. But I'd say go for what you can afford, if you can get the X then go for that.

Get the Evo, if you get the RA you will likely always wish that you would've gotten the Evo.

This is about the same dilemma I am in. I want a MR for DD/track but I don't think that I can afford one now. I’m trying to hold out for the prices of the 08s to go down rather than get a RA.

Look on youtube and there is a video going into great detail i think 3 part episodes about the difference between the ralliart and the evo x the chassis, turbo, supension, etc are different between the two. Personally I would only buy a ralliart if i was going to swap everything and make a race car...

Yeah, so I have a GSR and it was my first:

1. turbo car
2. awd car
3. stick shift

the clutch is really "light" (compared to muscle cars or an exedy stage 2, etc) and the engagement point is at the top of the clutch pedal range so gear changes are really quick (although i'd recommend a short shifter)

you have no good excuses
