I've heard this from multiple people in my area and thats what really convinced me to go for a ix rather than the x. If youve ever had a ix op whats your input on it compared to the x. Thanks.

An STI. If you lowered your price range you could get a used evo, and if you're lucky or persistent you'll get a good one. Personally I like the styling of the 8/9 over the x. Also my fat *** didn't fit in the X as well.

I used to be torn between the STI and the evo but with the fast key and recaros not to mention better looks i have decided on an evo. STI does have a bullet proof clutch though.

A 2010 SE STI is not really any more expensive than a GSR X.

STI is same type. Never said it was better, and I completely agree with you on the evo v sti. sti's are ugly as sin as a hatchback, and the sedans are good but not as good as the evo

^well to expand on that, I also really hate the SST. it's supposed to be the most advanced at shifting and has normal sport and supersport, but they fail to realize that everyday driving is a combination of the three settings! Might be an awesome track car, but around the city, it's horrible!

that is one of the things that i was thinking when i was deciding on which to get. It would suck when you are going up the on ramp and get the itch, and have to change modes lol. Anyways i just wish you could get all the MR extras on the GSR minus the SST, that would be soooo awesome.
