Just checking out their top 10 sports cars list. Evo wasn't even on it but not surprised since it's a general survey from the masses. 350Z is #1 over Lamborghini's and what not. Mustang is #2??? Kind of surprised at that one. Anyhow I decided to check out their Lancer Evo review. In one of the reviewers write up he said something interesting. I'll quote it here and post the link to his review. All favorable reviews as far as performance goes.

"The engine is hooked to a slick short-throw 5-speed manual transmission, which works with a long-throw clutch that has a "springy" feel. No automatic transmission is offered, but a high-performance unit with race-car-style button shifters might become available if Mitsubishi dealers demand it. "

"Race-car-style button shifters"?? Does he mean Formula 1 paddle shifters like the SMG M3?
That would be sick although highly unlikely.
