whenever you can choose a fwd car or a rwd car, i'd think the choice was obvious? One can do hellis, the other can't Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Have you driven an SV6??? They are awful!!!! Terrible gearbox & frankly a driving position thats utter crap! The alloytec engine is better than the older V6's ( but lets face it, that wouldnt take much) The VRX's 5 speed auto ( Havent driven a manual one so cant comment) is a jewel, much better and my XR6t's 4 speed lump.... The VR-X's V6 is a sweet thing, smooth & surprisingly quick.... Considering the (limited) budget Mitsubishi Aust had to play with to develop the VRX, its a great bang-for-buck car..... Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

the vrx is a 5 spd manual but i prefer the feel of my dads xr6t 6 speed and i like the feel of the clutch more.i find the clutch is very very light in the vrx. no i havent driven an sv6 would the hav much more room in the drivers seat because im 6'7 and feel very cramped up drivin the vrx.
