Thats good because it increases the price by what $8,000.
And Most people wont be driving that agressive anyways.
This will be more car than I will be able to handle for quite a while.
Plus accidents happen when pushing that hard on public roads!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!And anyone who says different probably isnt in the postion to buy an evo 8 now or in the near future!

Here's what the article says.
It has a pic of blue evo. Here is what the article say.
"Species evolve, said Charles Darwin "so as to acquire that perfection of structure and coadaptation which most justly excites our admiration" Perfect words for the Mitsubishi Evolution.
The modern evolution of a species that began with side curtained 50's roadsters, this rally-bred Mitsu is as well balanced as any modern sports car and capable of quick sprits. The Evo is the under 30k sports car to have, but its impact will be lessened slightly when the 32k 300-horsepower Subaru Wrx STi arrives.
While track testing is forth coming, we can tell you that the car is no low-end grunter. But once you get into meaningful trubocharger boost, it power will push you back into your Recaro. The Evolution's(no VIII on it's badge) driving environment is workaday; it's steering is quick, percise, and light , and its shifter has short, positive throws. This square rigged AWD compact sedan corners with some sompliance at turn-in, stiffening as you carve hard into a trun. It's fairly neutral, with understeer when you push it late or lift throttle oversteer if you get off it late. In quick esses on a short track, its tail hunkers down and slide nicely when reaching for the limit-we didn't miss the expensive Active Center Diff and Yaw Control of the Evo VIII.
The Evo (VIII) feels as balanced and forgivalbe as a Porche Boxter, with the same kind of sneak-up-on you midrange power. This is how sports car have evolved-and it's a kick to drive, whatever generation you occupy."
It also say currenly onsale
That is all and it shows a blue evo on top. Also Motortrend are saying the Civic type R is coming this year!
Didn't look that much to type until you type it.
