Yup. You're right. VII, VIII, and IX are all same platform. Never said VII was different from VIII or from IX. Supposedly X will be new platform. I was just responding to the other dude when he said all the bugs have been worked out since 1991 = not entirely true. Also, just cause VII came before VIII and IX doesn't mean VIII and IX will be completely bug-free. For example, '06 is first time for MIVEC. Even though IX is not a new platform, there is a new-to-evo system in it which means there could be bugs. If I were to buy a IX, I would not get '06. Just my opinion.

I wouldnt really considering anything said here "cons" the newer models have different Upgrades to them to make Lil more power in year out of the box if you get a 03 you will be missing out on the upgrades the 04 and 05 has. if you get the 04 you miss out on the benefits of the 05's upgrades. etc. I have an 03 and am perfectly happy with it seeing how I havew never driven a newer model

4G64s already have MIVEC. It's hardly new, even if it's new to Evos. 2006 might be the only year for IXs
