'05 MR or Evo IX?

Hey,

I was wondering whether you guys would rather get a evo IX (with everything the MR has, plus MIVEC, i hear), or the limited edition '05 MR with a maximum production run of 1000? Do you think resale value for the MR will be considerably higher?

Evo 9's going to have all the samething that MR has now come standard.

but you know what, I think evo MR or evo 8 just looks so much much better than evo 9.

I say **** it and get evo 8 MR.

I would get the IX over the MR. IX will most likely have all the MR goodies plus more power. I don't care about limited edition or color, these things don't make the car any faster or handle any better. I want zing not bling for my $$$.

They haven't had the IX at an autoshow so until it shows up at one I sure wouldn't think it would be out within 9 months - 1 year. So dont hold your breath on it.
