If you have a choice M3 or Evo MR?
Fellows,
If you have a choice of getting an 08 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution MR brand new fully loaded with Nav 30gb hd and other goodies would you do it?
Here is the catch, I have to trade in my 02 BMW M3.
What would you guys do?
Keep M3 or get Evo MR?
Opinions are welcome....
Thanks!

M3 is stock except for a drop in filter and cosmetic upgrades. The plan was to modify it 2010 which is pricey.
Plans:
Coilovers
Rims
CAI
Chip
Exhaust
Headers
All that being said, I'm looking at roughly 7k in mods.

I thought about the 135i but fully loaded your looking at over $40k. The 08 Evo MR MSRP is $43k and I can get for $35k with rebates and incentives.
