Also, one stupid question.... RS comes with no sound system. Does that
mean all speakers and wires are not there?? or just missing head unit?

Thanks,

i dont remember the official curb weight but its around 100lbs less than the GSR without a sunroof.

lower center of gravity also aluminum roof.

I think 04 RS has the regular steel roof...
Regular GSR is 3263... so 3163lbs for 04 RS?
Thats slightly lighter than 05 RS.

i think it does come with the aluminum roof but im not sure. I pretty sure its not the same as 04 GSR roof.

And im gonna take a guess and say it should be the 05 GSR minus the 05 RS weight should be the difference between an 04 GSR and 04 RS.

But yeah. Im pretty sure the 04 corners a lil better due to lower gravity ideally. The lack of a wing kinda hurts the downforce and thats why the RS gets around the track like a second later but yeah.

The 04 RS and 04 GSR roof are identical, however the 05 RS gets the 04 MR's aluminum roof but the 05 GSR does not...


and the weights of the 05's:

RS 3197
GSR [w/ sunroof] 3263 [3321]
MR 3285

Any rebate/incentive from Mitsubishi right now?
I only know about the $500 education or loyalty rebate.

Evo incentives: $500 college grad rebate if you will graduate within
6 months or up to two years after.

$500 loyalty rebate if you have a current Mitsubishi
registered at your address. It doesn't have to be yours.

There are no other rebates or special finance rates on the Evo.
