Default New RA Owner, Hello Club!
Hey Everyone, just joined this club and making my introduction here. Just got a Mitsu RA Octane Blue, all the color names are funky which is great This car is just awesome and I actually enjoy driving now. Owned a 02 galant before this.

Something I been wondering: (It would be great for replies on the questions below)

Is getting an Evo that much greater than an RA?
How good is the Twin Clutch system vs the manual?

I get a lot of ppl saying its gotta be manual and auto is a joke. Just wanted to know other people's opinion, since we are driving similar cars.

Thanks and I look forward to this Club

1)Welcome!
2)evo's handling is like having raw sex...except trunk is too damn small and u can't even put down the back seat...so u can't even go to costco with it...
3)manual tranny is a lil bit more reliable...suited for those who like to row their own boat...but tcsst is a trend now...a lot easier if u sitting in traffic...but u have to baby it more...

But at the end of the day I chose ra over evo cuz I get functionality and its cheaper overall to get to/surpass evo in terms of modding to get to high hp/torque(hope I make some sense)...hope this answer ur questions...
