"Headlight Level Control Knob"

 

I think it is of peculiar interest that he did mention the lack of AYC but didn't even mention the diff at all. Mitsu is going through unbelievable lenghts to keep us in the dark on this one. Also on the 7 with the ACD/Mirror buttons side by side to the right, it looks as if it was merely transplanted to the left side of the wheel. I'm not saying that the button is an ACD switch but it is nice to entertain the thought that we might still get ACD.
But don't get your hopes up

 

how many people here wish that the evo 8 looks like this when released?

 

nice photochop....IMO I think it looks cleaner.

 

Do you know if this particular Evo in the pic has a sunroof? I've seen at least one car in the past that had the control for the power sunroof located about right there. I also think I see what is possibly the intercooler spray button right in the center console like someone said earlier.

 

If I am not mistaken, cars with the ACD have the indicator on the tach right? Well in that nicely put together PDF poster a few days ago, looking at the interior shot it clearly shows the tach WITHOUT the ACD indicator. There are three different pics of the instrument cluster and tach nad you can clearly see there is no ACD indicator. I know it is nice to dream but give it up, hopefully it will be offered as a stand alone option later, maybe we'll even get the titanium turbo too!

 

Is it feasable that the button in question could be a blank for now as Mitsu has or someone has hinted at the ACD being a future option. My guess is a car company would not like to have to redesign the dash to include the button for it later on.

 

my thoughts exactly

 

Those tach shots were photo shopped... use the zoom tool on the menu bar of the pdf....also the interior shot is also smudged using photo shop

 

It looks to me to be an active button....you can see the gap around the edge!!!

 

No they would never put those crappy seats with no thigh bolsters in a euro or Jap evo....(sorry I forgot ..Jap is right hand drive)

 

I don't think they would install a fake button in there. This is a bad for the customers, since they would be asking too many questions about the non working button on the dash.

Here is how it was done for the DSMs and I believe if that was the dumb button it would be done the same way!

I kind of thought the same thing after my original post, but I guess we may not know for sure until someone who has actually sat in it tells us or we get a better close up picture of the dash.

 

I'll save the pics on our server so they don't go away. Nice write up and pics!

Well the ? has been answered the red evo is usdm just because on the front of the car is says lancer evolution now look on the back of the car says also lancer evoloution. Now don't u think if this was JDM is would say Evolution VIII. So the interior is of a US spec EVO and that buttom is for ACD trust me guys. Just wait and see
