I don't know how many arguments ive been in or seen on a daily bases here that people like to dispute the obvious. So now for the non believers, Mitsubishi themselves will show you in there video.

Enjoy!

P.S. Anybody know where I can d/l a hi-res version?

 

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

 

who the heck thought the evo was first? hello, it's lancer EVOLUTION, because it was the "evolution" of the standard lancer model. =/

 

More on the 2008 Lancer. I really like the vIPOD video on navi screen feature, that is gonna rock!

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

 

yah that was the real rally car they used. I was geeked when I saw it.

 

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.

 

the inflated ego doesn't allow them to see history.

 

I actually learned to drive '76 or '78 (Can't remember) Lancer

just like in pics difference is the tail lights...it was L type.

 

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