Only in looks. The genuine Evo widebodies started with the IV. Evos I - III were still just mostly unaltered Lancer/Mirage chassis'. Besides, it was an entire new chassis built in the switch from III to IV.

Just to point out, Paul. The wide body started from CP9A (EVO V, VI and VI TME). The CN9A EVO IV is only normal body EVO in the new chassis.

Look-wise, there are couple companies in Aussie that make body kit of EVO IV to VI to fit CC, CD (93-96) Lancers. I just can't remember them on top of my head.

Are you THAT sure Lan? I could've sworn that in one of the brochure package pictures you posted a long time back for all the Evos up to the VI, that the widebody started with the IV...I'm gonna have to try and back that up I guess. Argh.

Well, actually, I think you can only put the front/rear bumpers, fenders/flares on the car, but not the taillights. However, if you want more details, check out the Mirage fourm
