If it will cost about 60k-70k would you rather own an Evo X or a HSV Clubsport R8 valued at $64,890. I heard that it would cost about 60,000 – 70,000 dollars.

He said they were hoping to be able to sell the base model under $60k. Also mentioned that the reason there is no SatNav at present (on the base model lancer) is because of some sort of compliance issue - this is apparently an all new system and they have to sell a certain number of systems before they can offer it from the factory (or something to that effect). So we *may* get satnav at some point in the future. Can't wait until April! I went to the event and had a brief chat with Richard.

You should tell them how to priorities, your the man. Yes Tom, I suppose Porsche doesn’t know how to build a proper sports car, thats why they equipped a 911 Turbo with cruise control.

Have had it for years and would not want to do without it now - esp with the lame freeway limits here in NSW - far too easy to push the pedal past the 130k mark and not even know it.
