    whats good is that the recaro seat comes with an airbag so its good to swap the evo seats to the 08 lancer

    Very nice but I don't know about swaping the seats, I would rather swap the engine then the seats.

    that would be cool, usually they only do that to 'serious' buyers

    They say that even if there are only 70 miles on it, the buyer knows that those are 70 Hard miles on the car, and people don't like that :argue:

    yeah the dealer of my 08 lancer let me test drive their cars too including the evos...the reason is that ive been a mitsubishi customer all along...got an 06 outlander for my dad, and an 07 eclipse for my bro...so i think i got special consideration...and they know I'm waiting for the RA...

    Lets just say that the Evo X is going to be a huge disappointment in the hp #s.

    re...

    can't wait either, still waiting for those damn EVO'S here in east coast (NJ).
    but having doubts on trading my '08 GTS, too much money i think and haven't seen or heard any MR's out yet only GSR's anywhere.

    plus i didn't know they relocate the batteries and windshield washers in the trunk, how cool is that DAMN!!!!

    mehh.. i would do some reasearch before saying that.... there are companies around already like AMS and AGP with X's already doing 345awhp with basic bolt-ons WITHOUT tuning... i used to think that the evo was really over rated and over priced.. im starting to change my mind

    i dont wanna post links here cause it would be disrespecting LT.. but just search around ;) its easy to find

    I agree with serious, it is actually disappointing. i drove the X and wasnt really feeling it. Seats were very comfortable, pulled hard, rides on rails but it seemed slow, even in the drivers seat. I hang out and ride and drive with IX and boosted 2g eclipses and I can say those were better then the X. The turbo is covered, the engine cover pops off, no slotted/drilled brakes and seems heavy like the 3000 gt. IMO.
