Evo VIII option opinions

Since probably reads these posts I thought a poll on what we want would be good

The way I'm thinking, the first two would be 280 hp or so, 6-speed, etc. but the second option would make things such as the Brembos, AYC, big wing, etc. as seperate options or maybe even as a complete "sport" type pkg.
The other one, "detuned" I'm thinking 250hp, and the same tranny as the Evo VII but it would include the Recaros, Brembos, ayc
Assume all choices will have other things like sunroof, etc. as seperate options.

I would be cool if mitsubishi read these posts, a great place for them to get ideas. I voted for the second option, so you CAN get those items IF you want it, but still a good price. I am not sure about sunroofs though, I don't care for em but I am sure some people do. I guess only time will tell what we get here in the US, hopefully it works out for the best

Thats all I'm asking.

I don't know much about all the technical mumbo Jumbo, all I know is that the Evo VII looks solid! I don't care as long as they bring it. I've never bought a new car so what better way to start than w/ an evo?

I vote for detuned, but with all the other goodies, for 28k. I can bring the hp up again easily, as long as the engine stays basically the same. Even a smaller stock turbo would be forgiven, seeing as how I would replace that anyways.

Give me the RS-II or GSR in their JDM spec forms and I'd be sitting happy.

Look, this evo better either come standard with 265+hp, Brembo brakes,Recaro seat, either ayc, or acd or something comprable to that,h.i.d headlights, and a nice FMIC or have the option of getting those options included in an ugraded package even if the top model costs 35k

OK damnit is that so much to ask . This is what we want this will make me have my friggin dream car that I would choose over any car in the planet

I mean cmon is this really too much to ask Just give us what we want.

Ok Im done now i just needed to vent a little and get that off my chest.

Later.
