Ozzy, the SST is a ton of fun and a better daily driver than the GSR
since it has a taller final gear for highway cruising. It's truly an
amazing system better than any other. Which color did you pick??!!!

I've opted for the rally red.
We get very few of these types here so waiting for 'your' car may take
months.
MR will suit me better as I still do a little racing on weekends so
the better springs, dampers and two piece disks will suit.
There is talk that the leather trim will be std on the MR when
released here so they've made a note that I'll take it if
available..if not the cloth will have to do.

Apparently I'm a preferred customer because I've owned an EVO
previously and will get to choose what car I want from whatever
actually arrives.

The MR gets leather for certain, but I don't know if you'll get the US
or European leather package. The GSR suspension is a bit better than
the MR stock, but the MR brakes saves a bit of weight. MR's appeared
to have a tiny advantage on the track, but that's slowly changing now.
I found the MR noticeably softer, but a good trade off for daily
driving. And you can always tune a suspension. A GSR will always be
faster off the line of course, but it takes a LOT of skill to shift
the GSR as well as the SST does for you on twisty roads.
I just got back from my dealer and we're buying the Evo and a new
Outlander as well. I'm still torn between the Rally Red and the
Graphite Gray. BTW, the Rockford Fosgate audio system may be the best
stock stereo I ever heard and the Navigation and music server system
works great as well.
