I was thinking about it, but the only reason I'd get an evo is to track the ish out of it and buy a daily driver. I just couldn't bring myself to daily drive an evo, feels like a turbo'd honda to me.

As for ppl wanting ONLY the MR...lol why? If you plan to track it the 6speed box can have issues.
The evo SE (non-mr) is/was the best evo made to date IMO, im still holding judgment on the X

that's what I'm talking about, the rattles and shakes and ****. I used to have a turbo honda hatchback, and it feels just like it. I just feel so secure and so safe in my suby that I wouldn't trade that for anything.
