ATTN: mitsu will you produce a limited IX fq360 version to the US?
I know that the X is going to be out. But this thread is just to see if mitsu can produce a limited number e.g. 50-60 samples of the evo IX MR fq 360 to the US. price? $40-45K? ATTN: MMNA? with full manufacturers warranty.

It would be nice to have a factory warrantied slightly modified car. Maybe the new evo in the FQ360 version could somewhat keep up with a bone stock IX

that is for US version evo IX. FYI they still had 2007 production for UK hence they had all these versions that came out. Their evo IX MR is different from our MR that ceased production in august 06.

the fq400 was only on the evo VIII MR.

You can buy the BR330 and BR350 and they both come with factory warranty.

they ceased production because auto manufacturers had new guidelines they had to follow. from sept. 2006, all vehicles are required to have side impact airbags and some other things. I guess mitsu figured they would implement the changes with the new evo.

+1 on the br350
