X GSR review

I'm loving this car so far. It's a bit heavier than my IX was, but it makes up for it with a vastly superior chassis and substantially better handling potential. The fit and finish have been improved, the brakes are bigger (since the car is as well), the final drive is a bit shorter, and it now has Mivec on both cam gears with a chain driven system on the new 4B11. No more timing belt! Fueling is just pig rich stock. This car will wake up substantially when an aftermarket ECU solution becomes available to the general public.

Great track car; not so great commuter

Lack of overdrive gear really kills highway mileage (3500-4000rpms); really bogs down below 3k rpms, still has turbo lag between 3-5k then starts to fall flat above 5500 rpm. Redline might as well be 5500 rpm. Handles great but the only way to safely test its limits is at the track. Don't bother buying unless you plan to track the car at least recreationally.

First of all, I am 30. I have owned Trans-Am's and Camaros my entire life. I was in need of a 4 door car and fell in love with the looks of the Evo. I am amazed at the power the little 2.0 liter engine makes with the Turbo. It is such a different driving experience than the torque monsters I am use to, but I love it! It takes turns and curves like it is on a rail. I miss fish tails and power slides, but being able to take turns at speeds my Camaro SS could never achieve makes up for it. I would recommend the Sight Sound and Spoiler package for potential buyers. The bad, seats are a little uncomfortable & need more adjustment options. Had to have factory CPU flash to help acceleration.

Great For The Buy

Just bought the car. Put about 1500 miles on her. Runs great. Don't really care about the interior. Bought it just for outside look and performance. Drifted around 80 degree turn at 80mph. Handles great! This is a sports car.....Not made for comfort. Don't buy if you want comfort. I bought it for drifting.

This car is a wonderful driving car. The car handles excellently, and if it is tuned, can put out an exceptional 400hp. Drifting with this vehicle is harder being it is All Wheel Drive but otherwise is a very fun car. The new 2008 mustang gt puts out 300hp and is 1 1/2 times more heavy. Stock this car will smoke all the other cars for the same price. Great on gas, great reliability. The Subaru WRX STI is a great car as well although the latest models of this car are hatchback which is not preferred and do not do as well with handling.
