Wanted to share my insights and opinions too

I testdrove my friends 10 in the streets of Manila, and all I can say is that the 10 can be very comparable to the BMW M3 and Audi RS4 due to its comfort and power. In fact after driving the 10, I wanted to exchange my Evo 5 with him for a day just to feel more comfortable. The Evo 10 is huge and pig heavy compared to the feeble lightweight Evo 5. Acceleration, obviously the 5 has the edge because it way lighter than the 10 and its short gear ratios give it faster acceleration from the corners. Top speed wise, I think the 10 has the edge and the 10 feels safer to do Vmax runs on our highways. The Evo 5 is scary once you hit 240kph.

IMO, lets just say the Lancer Evo has matured and became more classy. Great audio, low noise, bigger legroom, awesome comfort features... its a perfect car for those who wants a balance of speed and power...

In my case though, I am willing to sacrifice comfort for power

^ Thats a really nice opinion. I drive my friend's 06MR back and forth, IX feel lighter but not much of the acceleration diff.

Do you guys get AYC in the previous evos?

AYC has always existed on the old Evos, from the Evo V GSR upwards. Except ACD only came out on the VII. ACD+SAYC really works. Too bad I sold my VII just to get the much older and brutal V.
