I bought my RA back in december just after it came out. The dealer couldn't do much of a mark down on it so ended up paying $44500 on the road with the RF package, tinting etc. I could have gotten a demo model GSR with 950kms on it for $57000 on the road but only in a silver colour. (Really crappy colour for an Evo) So I passed on it. You can now get some demo models with 1000kms for $52-53k, and some RA's for $38k. Alot of bargains to be had.
Ahh I see. Funnily enough silver was the one colour I did NOT want for the Evo... right until I was about to buy and then I thought silver isn't so bad (because I had been seeing the US-spec dark silver/grey which looks really good). I think in silver, the car looks very very ordinary but it's not too bad. At least scratches won't be easily visible.
Perhaps we can meet up in the city sometimes I live close by, there only three colours I will get Black, White or Silver, but I went for the Cool Silver cuz black isnt dark enough and the white isnt "pearl" and the silver looks normal but at least u can four corners were poped out n looks wide... its a shame that we didnt get the dark grey one.
I thought it was time to bump this thread since quite a few questions have been PM'd my way about stock Evo X MR's... and no point keeping them in private discussion.
The MR's leather recaros can only be adjusted forward and backwards using the lever, and tilted using the knob on the side (i.e. angled). There is no height adjustment and the steering wheel has limited ways to compensate. i.e. If you are shorter then average (I mean this in a nice way), you will probably find this car incredibly daunting and difficult to drive.

I did suggest this to my friend who wanted to buy one for him and his young fiance but unfortunately she was still too nervous to drive the Evo because of its power and size, especially when she had to sit on a pillow to see over the dash. I suppose it was quite funny because for her, the Recaros didn't grip her at all!
