Evo IX
Whats the deal, I thought the IX GSR was going to come with all the extras the VIII MRs had. Like the 6-speed tranny, and what not, but mainly the 6-speed. I was at Reno Mitsuishi today and was excited to see a IX, with the MIVECH 4G63, but became angry once I ventured into the vehicles cockpit, and saw the 5-speed shift pattern on the shift knob.

If they make a GSR that's basically as good as an MR, how do they sell MRs?

why?

MR is heavier than GSR. 6 speed tranny is weaker than 5 speed. Go figure.
