Was just on the mazda website and the rx8 seems to have quite a lot more features than evo 9...eg. leather seats, 9 speaker Bose sound system, Xenon headlights. But evo definitely more torque and power.

If your worried about that.

The Liberty Has something like an 11 or 13 Bose sound system.

Leather seats

Electric seats

With 180KW

Comfortable 4 door

Quite luxurious

6 speed man

And a cool computer that tells you how many L/100km you currently doing.. Injectors/pump max out at 55L/100km.. just so you know.. :yes:

BTW:scandyflick, Your sig is funny.. I lol'ed.. but its also 2 in the morning..

no self respecting dentist drives a japanese car, unless its a Lexus (genuine too, none of this Toyota Soarer rebadged crap). euro all the way dude... Audi it up.

the "fun to drive" choice out of all that is the Evo... but I'd still get the Audi over it.

hey congrats on your degree. id say get the evo whether u wait and get the evo x or just get the evo ix..but do not get the bmw 3 series..my dad and i took one for a test drive when he was looking for a car and im not a big guy but inside i could not get comfortable and couldnt bend my knees as the ergonomics of the car are sh*t house

keep the skyline, take the money and use it as a deposit for a house

You already have a nice car. Buy a house.

Think long term success not short term thrills. In 5 years time when you get equity on your new property, you will be able to buy the new GTR that will crap all over the current list of cars you are looking at. Be patient with money and use your brains to invest now and reap rewards later.

Dont be like 99% of other young guys spending all they have on flashy cars when they are young. 99% of guys mess up financially early on so they end up never owning any exotics (Ferraris, Lambos, new GTR etc)

You are getting 70 K for FREE, invest it wisely!!

The choice is yours.

I just called mitsubishi and they have confirmed the price for the evo 10.

Only 3 variants will be available, GSR 5 speed ($59000), GSR semi-auto (64000), MR semi-auto (74000).

Cars will be ready around april 2008.

So now, I have to choose manual or semi-auto.

Thanks for the input guys!

It did not come up, but the Mazda 6 MPS with leather pack is a fun car to drive with all the extra's, and it's quicker with 4wd than many other cars. It's no evo but as a everyday car for the executive with possible family on the way, it's a good choice.

Please drive an EVO before you buy one. I did and the V-spec GTR had a much smoother ride.

Dont get married, over 50% of marriages end up in divorce! Kiss half of your car good bye when she says "laters" :D

Great choice EVOX( was not on your list though) :) ......go GSR five speed for fun...unless you have to drive around the city all day.

X would be worth the wait....be patient.

If I was given this..a GTR34 would be my first choice....will hold its value and chick magnet appeal.... :laughing-smiley-014:

Not that I need that with my good looks...

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.

      Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.

      There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.

      yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
