R&D 3/2007 issue (mitsu related, of course!)

Just wanted to share a few mitsu related points in this issue (mods i apologize if this is a repost!), but for the naysayers of the X and those excited about the upcoming Lancer will be happy!

For the X:
http://www.roadandtrack.com/article....rticle_id=4656
"There's an effort to make one worldwide specification for the car, which means the US models will be available with the Super All-Wheel Control package, which includes active yaw control, an active center differential and anti-skid control for the first time on an evo." also, seven airbags also come standard...will come w/ 5spd or twin clutch DSG-type gearbox w/ magnesium paddles shifters behind steering wheel...

For the Lancer:
http://www.roadandtrack.com/article....rticle_id=4685
so far nothing but good reviews...has the new 4B11 aluminum block 16-valve 2.0 L inline 4 w/ MIVEC (with room for a turbo in the engine they add)...options are up to par with today's standards - the upper model, GTS includes: bluetooth, navi w/ 7.5" screen with 30G hard drive...the most interesting part was: "Over the next few years look for several Lancer variants, including an all-wheel-drive turbo model (the Ralliart?) that slots in below the almighty Lancer Evolution."
