Dont know if this is old news to some of you, but mitsu has now released the 400 hp mr here in the states. They have one down at Ed Voyles mitsu on windy hill. 400 hp, 395 torque. I was tempted to trade in my evo8, but 40k for the car is too much for me. I'll just spend the extra 10g and have a 500 hp evo

 

That is a preposterous bunch of BS. As Cartman of South Park would say, "I call shenanigans!!!"

Please prove your ridiculous claim. If you are referring to the British MR FQ-400, Mitus built 100 cars for sale in the U.K. only.

 

there is an mr at ed voyles, but it's not 400hp and it's not $40k.

 

Lol man

 

did they just bolt-up aftermarket adds and then try to charge a premium for them. the FQ-400 sells for 60k euro, if i am not mistaken, that is closer to 90k i think in us dollars. maybe it was a typo or something, if not i want to see pics. actually give me the number of the place, and i will buy a plane ticket tonight.

 

Yeah. Total BS. Look at the website for the online inventory.

If it has 400, though, I'll take it at the advertised $36k price

 

The only 405hp to be correct is the FQ400 in the uk that is the only 405hp MR I know of and That would be cool if someone really had it in the US

 

remember when dealerships first got the evos... a few of them were hooking up the evo and selling them w/o warranty... like that mark's mitsu or whatever in arizona that sold that evo for 26k on ebay...

 

that's bogus...but i'm watching an evo on ebay now...hoping i can get it for $15k!!! haha

 

My mechanic who works at ed voyles honda "which is in the same parking lot as mitsu is the one who called me. I thought it was a load of bs too, I said that I would have heard of that way b4 they came out. What do you think I gain in lying? Do you think I want to be known as a lier here? There is a possibility "saying this it sounds like im lying," that my mechanic could have been mistaken, but he is the one who got me a deal on my evo and works on it all the time. I'm pretty sure that he knows his ****. I'm going to drive down there tomorrow and find out for sure, but if im right I expect apologies!! And I am bringing my camera with me.

 

you do that. If its a FQ400, try to U-turn that baby outta the lot

 

10 bucks and my left nut says this isn't kosher

 

Ok, sorry for the false statement. I didnt think it was true either. I just drove up there and they had no clue what I was talking about. I will tell you he's not working on my car anymore. Go ahead and make fun of me, I deserve it.

 

it's ok by me. i would be drooling over the news too.

 

Sorry your were wrong. Would have been cool though. Although for $80-90K or watever the exchange is, you could definitely get more than 405 out of the evo.
