Mitsubishi had the 1973 lancer 1600 at the Detroit Autoshow. It was all set up to rally too.

And seeing that car up close made it very clear that it was beat on in the past.

thats easy to know, by just thinking on the name: EVO

EVO = Evolution

theres no way the evolution of something can came before the "something"

my 2 cents

I'm just curious as to what people this guy is referring to...if anyone on here thought the Evo came first they should be stripped of their car and then drug naked through broken glass and thown into a mound of salt.

Great videos! That new 6 speed definitely seems promising on the X and it looks like the Evo is finally getting cruise control.
