Default Newbie in Chicago Suburbs
Today I bite the bullet and traded my 11 graphite grey gts in for a 14 cosmic blue ralliart.. Got the touring package..

I don't get to pick the car up till next week. It has to be delivered.

Things I am nervous about:

Used to 5speed.. Not sure how much I'm gonna like this new automatic sst trans..

I had to choose.. Touring package and lip spoiler or no touring package and race wing.. I chose touring package. So why on Earth do they give you some stupid lip when you choose a more expensive package? I know I have wing envy...

I wanted the recaro seats.. Love them in the evo. But I wanted heated seats more.. So got the leather. Not sure how much I am gonna love them. Have yet to sit in them.

Anyways sorry I'm being negative. Maybe I will be more thrilled when it arrives. LOL.

Nice to meet you all.

Also any one know of any Lancer meet ups in the Chicagoland area?

-Bree

Welcome, man! I've only ever had 5spd's. I actually love the SST. It's definitely not an automatic by any means, although people will mistake it for that. I like it because it feels like a manual, but it shifts faster then a human ever could. I will give you a heads up though. Do not expect it to be smooth haha
