Evo at the Chicago Auto Show?
I was playing around with the "live" camera at the Chicago Auto show trying to see what is in the Mitsubishi area. I think the red one in the attached picture is an Evo. Any one else think so? If anyone is going let us know and get some pictures. You can see a yellow OZ in the background.

Couple more close up shots. Wish the X5 wasn't in the way.

This seems to be about as close as I can zoom. Can't quite tell if it's LHD or RHD.

Good work CyberDog.

It looks as though the car is on the floor, as opposed to on a pedastal. Maybe you can actually sit in it.

Yes, this was at the 2002 Chicago show, see link I posted above. There are only two cameras on there web site. I found the Evo by panning away to the left from the VW site over the BMW site to the Mitsubishi site. From the distance you can't really see any Mitsu cars but when you zoom in they become visible.

If anyone can get close see how the interior is compared to the OZ I would appreciate it. I sat in an OZ last weekend at the Providence Auto Show (which pretty much was a waste of time except for the GT40). The OZ's was acceptable.
