Debating new Ralliart, GSR or MR
haven't got to drive it much because I got in a major mountain bike accident about 10 days ago. So I get to look at it a lot

Oh I guess the RA's don't have that do they.
It's the Active Stability Control diagram. Each one of the crescents is a tire. When the active yaw takes control it shows how much power is being put to each wheel. Then the middle one is power and braking. Top is power, bottom is brakes. When it applies power to the front it variably changes the level in the top, and visa versa for the brakes.

...That is pretty freaking cool I'm not gonna lie.

Went through a similar process when purchasing the RA. I know it was a strange choice, but for me the most important thing was the sst box, sunroof and hatch (sportback) as the missis and puppy will use the car. Granted there are a few short comings of the ra, I've allocated about $10-$15k (aud) in mods to get the power, handling, brakes and rims up to a decent level. a lot of people have said why not hey an evo, but for the the make or brake was the sportback. If I had the ultimate choice, I would have imported sn evo ix wagon, but alas couldn't get compliance in Australia 
work out what you really want in the car and associated costs and the answer will present itself

Get the MR if you want a great daily driver. The MR is BALLER. But you can't mod it too much. Just a few simple bolt ons and a not-so-agressive tune.
Get the GSR if you want to get more power. The twin-clutch can be more hassle down the road.
Get the RA if you can't afford the Evo! Haha.

i think its funny that it shows you on a diagram how much power is being put to each wheel.... i can see it now.... when your really hammering it in some turns trying to get it into 1wd mode you can look down and see it perfectly.... and then look up to see trees coming at your face
