    sticky doesnt mean its a fast tire. You tracked your 335i so don't tell me rhode tires are as good as advans. Why do you think every car magazine has bitched about them on every test they ever do? Cause they suck arse, that's why.

    I'm not saying that the x isn't a good car, but to bash the 135i because its a few seconds slower around a track seems rather stupid.
    Doo relax...lol. The run flats are re050 bridgestones, I did drive it on the track and I was surprised how well they handled. I am not bashing the 135i I actually implied that they are right about it the car, it is a good daily driver and ok for track day so over all it will be a more useful car. MR is a mitsu that we all love.

    Sorry if I confused you mighty Steevo8 ...please dont hurt me.........

    Exactly. The X MR will be my DD and the 580-680 is jammed everyday and the most annoying this is staying in 1st gear, stop and go....

    The SST has been fixed according to Mitsubishi and the only thing they're waiting for is to ship them to the states, then of course there's customs to wait for..... :?

    I ain't trippin yo. Your entitled to your opinion.. Even though its faulty

    As for the above comment speak for your self. IMO thing only thing the X MR is good for is pictures and to be a track car.

    Interior= the loss
    auto sports car= the loss
    price= the loss
    no more 4g63= the loss

    It sucks that all this development from tuners goes down the drain, yes, but it remains to be see what kind of power people can squeeze out of 4b11. So let's not take out our jump to conclusions map just yet regarding this engine.

    He's just opinionated, but that does not necessarily mean he is correct.

    what sucks about the 4b11 is that its going to make the top developers stop developing parts for the 4g63. If they would have done a 4g63 I think it would have struck a lot more evo owners eyes because then you could swap some parts over from your viii or ix and trade your car in on one while not falling behind as much and having to buy parts.
