Evo IX GSR - The Fifth Day

I like its driving position and the seat. They fit like a groove. The Recaro bucket seat is very firm but comfortable. Superb. The Momo steering wheel could be a tad thicker.

The instrument panel is a tad dark but and the speedo is a bit small. The whole layout of the dashboard I would say is very good and is not unlikely BMW's 1 and 3 series theme.

I absolutely like the notchy and affirmative gearshift. The gear ratios for 1st, 2nd and 3rd are in perfect harmony in daily use. And the gears engaged cleanly.

Normally I am not a fan of Xeon headlamp, but I would say they work great in the GSR.
The paint work on the rear left quarter panel is not good.
I will leave the wheels in black.

But I will change the stereo and add a rear camera.
And I have been trying with tire pressure, now having 30psi/32psi. The handling is good but the ride is a bit harsh and overly firm on rough pavement.
