It's called an automated MANUAL for a reason. Just because it doesn't have a third pedal, doesn't necessarily mean it's an automatic.
This is my signature. I currently have none. I hope you have enjoyed my non-signature.

lol it is what it is... . a true manual car requires you to be able to cordinate working a clutch, the brake pedal, and the gas padel, and shifting with your right hand all at the same time while paying attention to the traffic.

I'm not trying to discredit those cars at all.... there just like the samething..

Depends, how old are you?

and are you REALLY into cars??

most guys when starting a family or having kids cant afford evo's because kids cost a whole lot more and its not exactly safe to bring your kids around in a car like that. it all depends on your situation. it also sounds like you LIKE cars, not to be mean or anything, but your not into cars, as in mechanics and self servicing your car, replacing parts on your own etc.

 if your under 30 and dont have a kid yet or not planning on starting a fam. get the evo.

but if your late 20s or above and married, a gts may be the way to go, or RA.

i just dont want you to end up like those guys who have to sell their baby due to a baby. haha
my car sucks.

If you plan on doing any type of modifications to the car you buy, why not get an EVO VIII.  Their a lot cheaper than the IX

well now it just goes down to how much are you going to be into your car?

if you have the funds, be all means get an evo IX. if you know no financial problems will arise and you are settled. then go for it! good luck!!

just dont transform into a d* in the process lol
my car sucks.
