Is the only reason why you're trading it in is because of aesthetics? Why not just vinyl it white? That seems like a major waste of money just for looks.
cool man, ww looks great! I love my pearl black though. Flies under the radar quite a bit.

Also that, why not just get it painted for $3,000?
Well the 11s have the new diff pins too right? So that's a major upgrade.
hes not just paying for a paint job hes getting a newwer evo with upgrades to the 2008 evos flaws sounds like a good deal to me man !
it just not the paint job...if it the paint then ima jux keep my pb...like guswaym say it a newwer evo lol
trade it in for 2012 not 2011!!! much changes were made on the 2012!!
Had WW, was a pain to keep clean. So is black, but at least being under the radar is nice.
I love my WW. I had a rotor glow 09 ralliart before that. I can tell you that white is easier to keep clean than the orange lol. Good luck let us know what you end up doing.

I call bullshit. How is that possible?

Actually my '11 has more differences with the '08 and more in-common with the '12.

The only differences between the 11' and 12', is the economy shift light, parking sensors and door insert upgrades that I actually can't even see, because I have Sun and Leather, so if he's looking at a 11GSR with Sun and Leather, virtually no difference than getting a '12.

Compared to the '08, 11' has different skirts, different (color) LCD on the dash, different center console, TSB's taken care of for relays, ecu flashing for chain stretch, diff pins, etc. Different available options ( like I said, I have the first year Sun and Leather was available for the GSR), FUSE, etc.

OP - Congrats on the new car, hopefully you're able to get all the options and accessories you're wanting!
trade it in for 2012 not 2011!!! much changes were made on the 2012!!
probley like 25 changes from 08 ---> 2011 and like 5 from 2011 ----> 2012

and the important changes to the engine, ecu, ect ect were made in the 2011
I drive a 2010 GSR.. Wow I thought that 2008-2012 were all the same once you get it tuned. What changed? I know my dash is different from the 2008.

Leather seats are being offered on '11s too. So, thats not '12 specific.

Looks like only differences are cosmetics...
Probably is gonna cost him more, he said WW with 3k miles on it , so its probably used.

so changes for 2012 is (2008)25+ (2011-2012)5 = 30 changes win.. dont tell me they didnt carried out changes from 2011 to 2012 ..
