yea Ive spotted a few my self. dont know if Dave Sarmadi Mitsu is dropping the prices or not on the Xs. When I picked up my 9, tried them and they would not agree to letting me use the railroad discount. So I went to Lynchburgh Mitsu and got a killer deal on a 06 9 with SSL. I would give them a call.

I already forgot what this post was about..... oh X's. I have only seen one! I will stick wit the VIII and IX, they have the handling and feel of race car not a fast family car. I was selling my IX till last week when I bought, lets say over budget.

Congrats on the evo man. I just got a kick in the teeth this weekend. Clutch is already gone. Have any inside info on people coming in for clutches yet? Took a trip to tennessee with 3 people in the car going up the side of a mountain and killed the clutch. Those things cant hold crap.
I dont think ill be coming in to the dealership for warranty on it unless they have actually been replacing them. Not too interested in paying 1500.00 for them to say it was the driver not the part.

ive heard of spec clutches word of advice you cannot go the inexpensive route with an evo or a clutch act is a very good clucth for the money under 800 bucks for clutch and flywheel .
