Oh, I'm sorry.

I'll check on that today and get back to you.

basically saying is feb 08 a definite date or is it a working date that mmna hopes to have it released by?

also with the 07 outlanders / evo x, will dealerships be having the same problem as they did with the 06/07 eclipses / spyders where they might get like 1-2 when they first come out since mitsu was doing it where as soon as they were done on the production line they were sending them out as opposed to getting a decent amount ready and then sending 7-10 to dealers as opposed to maybe 1-3

Maybe it will be a world car again, and we can get a "JDM" style one. It needs to rock though. whatever you do, you've got to convince the top brass that Mitsu needs to offer Evolite turbo/AWD Ralliart models in the Sportback, Eclipse, Galant and Outlander.

The sportback looks alright. The turbo and AWD are definite plusses.

I am not a fan of the style changes in the Evo X. I do not like the coupe line or the blacked portion of the bumper between the radiator grill and intercooler. Those two things absolutely killed any prospect of me buying a X, which is why I jumped on buying an SE IX.

However, the changes I am complaining about in the X do not bother me so much when I see them on the sportback concept. With that said, that is my opinion of the X and I feel that people at Mitsubishi should know it, since I am a really big fan of Mitsubishi.

Aside from that, I have a question for you. How are SE IX sales doing?

I ask because SE Evos are not being marketed at all on the main MMNA web site.

I cannot tell if they are SE models are not, I just know that they are EVOs.

I think alot people are waiting for EVO X to be release that's why sales are not as good as they should be.

Awww, damn. Well, thanks for the info you could provide. Nice to have someone from corporate actually talking with us.
