i thought the cast iron fron diff will be across the line on 08 and up. no??

if you know about cars (h3s) then you can upgrade your car for the better if you can without screwing it up. But if you dont know jack, and want more power, get the alpha. I dont know if it offroads better, but it has more power. I guess it climbs better, but I dont know, i havent offroaded with my 07.
On the other hand, how can an alpha help with highway driving? A 1988 Civic can drive on the highway, so why wouldnt an 06-07 h3 not be able to?
I dont understand people these days.

^whats your problem these other guys already answered my question so go cry somewhere else

2345 (or is it 6789) - What's the price difference on the 08 regular vs. Alpha that you are being quoted?

For the typical H3 owner, the power difference on the road will be the biggest advantage of the Alpha.

^ i heard around 34,000 from my dealer for the alpha

Is that US dollars for currency?

Sounds like a logical idea, but that's not what I heard here.

geeez, that would suck. this shoudl definately be across the line, its just extra expenses to produce too separate parts that will do the exact same task. seems like a waste if its not across the line.

oh and Matt, that price tag of $34000 aint gonna happen, unless your packing some serious discounts, umm... like $10,000 worth

Agreed, lame, bad decision for the consumer.

For sure, they may have partially turned the corner, but still a ways to go.
