Well, I haven't heard much about it, especially with it running that much HP. Unless it's AWD, the Evo will still run better. It's hard to say without knowing what has planned for the Eclipse. I would venture to say the Evo will remain as the paradigm of the Mitsu line.

 

6-speed manual or
Sportronic automatic transmission
traction control
18" alloy wheels
3.8-liter MIVEC V6
263 hp and 260 lb. ft. of torque
650Watt stereo system :O

 

650w stock system...nice

 

That sounds sweet. Maybe Mitsu can keep their heads above the water with rides like that. It looks like the Evo may have some more competition.

 

DAMN! 3.8L V6 Mivec. That could have some serious potential

 

what's the price on that thing?

 

get the evo.are you crazy!!! the new elispse ain't ****

 

mark my words:

THIS WILL PUT MITSU BACK ON THE MAP, MORE THAN THE EVO!!!

I went to the LA Auto Show and saw it in person, up close 5inches away from it, THIS THING IS A JEWEL!!! Pictures absolutely, positively do this car NO JUSTICE. I was in LOVE, haha. There is no set price yet, but im pretty sure this could give a 350z, SRT4, RX8 and s2K a run for its money.

Far as power, it could be close against the evo.

 

Hell yeah it will give a lot of cars a run for their money. 3.8L Mivec sounds like it would have a nice tq curve. I bet it will surprise a lot of people.

 

You have a lot of cars...that's cool. It leads me to believe that you probably know what you're talking about. The pics I've seen are sweet. It will never replace the Evo, but it could create a new passion. I'm sure a lot of peeps would pick that over the neon...uh hum, SRT-4.

 

dammmn i wonder what the sticker on the v6 is gonna be..that stock stereo system is sick !!!!!!!!

 

looks nice.. but could never replace the evo

 

The spoiler is fiberglass clear (see-thru). She had her arm on it and it looked like had her arm leveled in mid air, pretty neat. The interior is on par w/ must luxary vehicles, I have a short video clip of it @ the LA auto show, I can up it if anyone wants to see it.

 

Looks like a mix between the Hyundai Tiburon, and Auti TT. This can not compare to the evo, it's like comparing apples to oranges.
