i like that new display...it shows a lot more than my 08 model.
i hate having to toggle between a million screens. Looks like the 2010 model shows a lot more on one screen at a time.
The new taillights/ralliart tails are starting to grow on me too...hmm
i also like the audio control on the steering wheel...that would of been a nice feature to have.
overrall i like your 2010, congratz!

Am I the only one who is sick of hearing about it everytime a MY2010 thread comes up!? Envy? Buyer's remorse?
Some of us prefer to order a car the way WE want and not just buy something leftover because we were thrown a good deal at the stealership.
I'll probably get flamed for this, maybe it's just me, but I rather pay full price for a car than settle for something that's probably been sitting on a lot for over a year, been jumped over a couple dozen times before starting, been test-driven/beaten on by dozens of careless teens or inexperienced drivers, been dented or dinged by other cars on the lot, been exposed to various weather elements including hail and whatnot, been filled up several times with crap regular fuel that dealers carry, been driven right after a start a ton of times without proper warm up, etc,etc,etc,ETC!!!
Sorry for the rant, but it's getting kinda annoying and I just needed to vent a bit.
OP, lucky you! Mine will look identical to yours when I order it in a couple of weeks. Good luck with it

Omg, enough with the damn 0% crap already? We get it. They were practically giving these things out out several months ago for crazy deals...yes-yes...we know. We get the point.

Anyways, guys come on, we are a community of enthusiast's, we are all here because we LOVE evos, we dont need this "OEMGEE!! YOU SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN AN 08'!!! THE DEALZ ARE AMAIZING!.". I dont know if you guys seen the Lexus commercial, where the guy jumps in his Lexus while the narrarator says "some guys get a car because of the deal they get, while others get their dream car" (or something like that), anyways my point is, dont settle for anything less than 100% of what YOU want, and this is exacly what i did and you know what? i couldnt be happier .
To: WWIXMR: thanks man, goodluck with your purchase, what dealer are you going to get yours from?

^ Amen... ultimately, its your money and you can spend it however you want. Others are influenced more with what deals they get (as long as the things they are looking for are also there)- I'm one of those guys. To be honest, my first choice was WW, but of course that color was long gone when I got my X last May. RR was my 2nd choice and that's what I got, along with the best deal I could find nationwide. That was enough for me to pull the trigger. I couldn't be happer with the purchase.
The OP wanted a WW, he got it... and the first one to get a 2010 in the US? Even if he had pay the higher price for a new year model, it's still a nice feeling to get the car he really wanted, and the first one at that! He is extremely happy with it and now a part of the community! Cheers to the OP, I'm glad for you!

Congrats! Enjoy your new purchase.
Yes, 2008s can be had for bargain prices but getting a 2010 means it didn't sit in a lot forever. There's lots of stuff that can happen to a car as it sits outdoors. Some care, others don't. You pay the premium for the fresh car.

that's not the same. not even close. while everyone is looking at consolidating and optimizing the center display, you're looking to add more display and make the driver look retarded by twisting his/her head around the dash 60 times a minute. not to mention those other 200 "add-ons" that you have to go through and possibly have it fail, when it could all be possibly done just by swapping a gauge or display.

I think everyone likes the new display because it shows more information and it looks very, very nice. It's not the be-all-end-all but the EVO X interior is pretty average so any extra bling helps. It appears the new LCD is larger and has a bezel around it which 08/09's don't so you would probably have to do an entire cluster swap which could be $$$ and I'm not clear on can-BUS vehicles if the mileage is still stored in the cluster.

thanks for asking the build date Q, mitsu had a "2010 MR" they were showcasing which someone discovered had a build date of DEC 08, just wanted to confirm yours was fresh!
anyway, i've got a pic request if possible, here's the angle:
from the rear of the car, off to one side, closer to the bumper (not standing up) of the entire car, making sure the side skirt is visible (particularly how far its actually "sticking out" as opposed to the MY08 skirt). thank you in advance
