As a previous owner of an Evo X MR, I would highly advise that you reconsider buying an MR, or an Evo in general.

For the following reasons...
1. Very poor build quality. If you thought Z made sounds, wait until you get in and drive an Evo.
2. Hideous interior material quality. One of the worst interiors I've ever experienced in a sports car. Everything is so lightly made and PLASTIC.
3. Not mod friendly. Especially an MR. You'll expect major headaches even if you put a down pipe and a Cobb tune on the car. So easy to damage a MAF sensor, even with just a drop in air filter.
4. MR Trans over heating issues. If you ever decided to track the car, you'll find yourself pulling into the pits every 2 laps for over heating issues.
5. MR SST feel. If you are expecting the trans to be anything like GT-R's or any other current dual clutch set up, you'll be very disappointed. It's too soft, too slow, almost feels like an auto. Oh, the pedal shifters feel crappy as well, when you push in on oen, they other side moves, BAD BAD quality.

The car does offer a hell of performance for what it costs, I won't deny that, but if you are going to get an Evo, get a GSR.

Good luck.
