Evo X Released in Japan!

DAMN, It looks just like my car!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

A lot of that info is for the JDM models.

I received a call from Mitsu Corporate North America about the letter I sent them a while back asking a crap load of questions concerning the X and the Ralliart.

The following links are the provided information and preliminary technical specs about the US model Evo X:

Our Models will be the base GSR and the more high end MR.

As for the Ralliart, the lady, Melinda, that I spoke with from Mitsu Corporate North America told me that while they can not currently confirm there will be a Ralliart edition/trim because final fiscal year sales have not been documented, she assured me that they record sales over the last 2 quarters are a very good sign. She stated to look for info about the Ralliart to be released around January 2009 about the same time the Evo X arrives in U.S. showrooms.

Furthermore, as of the 2009 model for the base lancer, all lancer trims will be switching up to the 2.4L I4 engine. This is not the world engine, but one of Mitsu's own design, testing, and creation. I hope those who got the 08' can switch up to the bigger engine 8O otherwise that would suck...

Kinda makes me glad that I decided to wait .

yo i want that hood

 

anyone notice the gas lid is square compared to Lancer is circular

 

Oh, btw, the price for the base GSR will be about $31,000 MSRP with destination charge and the MR will be about $35,000 MSRP because the extra goodies both interior and exterior.

and still no cup holders

 

Im just sharing my opinion, Im not trying to be a downer...but the more I look at the Evo X and the upcoming STI....the Evo doesnt look that amazing and the STI looks better. :lol:

 

Hahahahaha good one :? I hope you are joking, that STI is ugly as hell

 

Who needs cup holders when you are hauling THIS MUCH ass 8) !

Bill

 

I do believe you mean FUGLY AND F*N Hell!

with the Evo finally out, hopefully we can see alot more parts for our cars, the brembo brakes look sweet, i wish I waited for the Evo for more HPs but needed a car and I LOVE MY GTS!!

 

True that!!!! where am I going to put my cel? LOL

 

Nope I am being serious. I would gladly turn my Lancer in for the STI over the Evo.

i don't know if it is just me but itsn't wired on the interior pic of the evo, the e-brake is on the wrong side,
