Thumbs up

I was waiting to hear about this..... ^+1 good find.

I was half expecting this NOT to change so that it could be used as one more impediment in the way of US importation.

Strange though, the new Lotus Exige and Elise cannot be imported. I was looking to purchase one in the future from the states as MSRP is way lower there.

I drove an MR that was 340whp they are fun to drive but they dont really give me a stiffy like alot of people seem to have for them. Id take a modded G over an evo 9.

i drove an MR w/ k&n exhaust and some other stuff...it was like i was in back to the future, everything just zoomed past like a blurr. I don't think ill forget about that experience. But.....Honestly, I didnt like the transmission, it was a bit too stuff for me, maybe its something you get adjusted to like our nissans...

When or if I get enough money to seriously mod my G to a certain degree where I won't think twice about an evo, ill probably take your word for it. But stock for stock (or lightly moded) and for the moment i'd rock that evo.
