I love my Evo's perfectly sized MOMO wheel and quick 2.1 turn to lock rack, thought I'd be losing that with the 1M but I'm glad I'm not!

The steering in the Mitsu Evo IX is incredible! VERY direct. I compared that and the Subaru STI (2005-08) and the Scooby was ok, and almost a clone of the Evo in every way (plus a little more torque) but nowhere near as good as the Evo when it comes to steering feel on and off center.

To me this is the worst comments said yet about the 1M. Twitchy feeling? No other tester to date has mentioned this.

I'll wait for more tests of the full production car before I believe this one.

+1 he starts with the 1M is in some ways better than the M3 GTS, then talks about twitchy? You can't do that.

Too bad the EVO has the turning radius of a Mack Truck. I hated that about the EVO VIII I drove.
