GlobeCLK yeah I live in OC; Garden Grove. I don't know about manual/auto for either Mitsue dealers, but they told me what they get is what they sell; expect it to be 2 manuals and 2 auto. BTW they are asking for $5K down and you are guaranteed one (don't know if it's refundable or not). I asked about options and they said they don't know.
I'm getting my Evo VII in November because my friend collects cars and he can get them in advance. Mine will be fully loaded, the whole deal wth Xenons, and manual. I'm getting a corporate book soon so I'll post the final specs and we'll see the packages as well. Here is the phone number of the Anaheim Mitsu, talk to sales and ask about the Evo:
(714) 533-2200
You can try Costa Mesa too but they couldn't give me any info; the Anaheim guy knew his ****. These guys in Costa Mesa said they would call me back, after I personally talked to the lead man in sales. I'm expecting them to get 1-3 EVOs, but you need to call and ask in August like with the Anaheim dealership. Here is CM Mitsu:
(714) 545-1700
Hope I helped,
Lancer-Evo-VIII

EvoVII
Hey Lancer-Evo-VIII,
As soon as you get the specs, scan them!
I'm really excited for y'all on the list to get the Evo in December. I expect a full account of performance, inability to stop smiling like an idiot, and kills of Vettes, Porsches, all
.
Anyone gonna mod right away?
I'm still contemplating when I'll buy... I know a couple of people that, although they can't elucidate on specs, can get me a car at MSRP and pretty much the way I want it without money down... which is pretty cool. Can't complain. It's all about gonnections, yah know.
I just don't know if I want to be first or wait for later performance models- RS's, GRS with AYC and ACD, Ralliart Extreme Pack- or even for the EvoVIII... plus I wouldn't mind for the after-market scene to be established so I can tweak with an already amazing machine
.
Plus, I don't know what color... silver, blue, or black?
Anyone with a good site with the EvoVII in all available colors?
Anyway, I hope all who want an Evo right away get it.
G
I'll just sit back and admire the Evos, while I rebuild my block for 400hp (bored to 2.0L and bullet-proof).

...has anyone seen/heard estimates of US spec performance? , beyond whats in C/D March/April segment.
Anyone in the OHIO area? ...the Dealers here are clueless!

The only thing that we REALLY know is that it will have 250+hp and will be under $30k MSRP.

: Where abouts are you in Ohio?I really want to be the first in my area with an Evo but if there is a possibility that RS's will be available I would rather wait for that model.
Oh yea, white(rs) or red(gsr) is cool with me.

You know anything about Browning Mitsubishi in Cerritos Auto Square? I live like 5 minutes away from them.

I just talked to them (it was hard getting through) after calling them a few times. They told me that they have absolutely no info on the Lancer Evo. The lady from sales mentioned that people had been calling about it, but she couldn't give them any info, even after talking to the GM of the dealership. I directed her to Hooby's topic with th scan of the release date and she said she would show it to the GM and call me back. She was very friendly, but admitted she never heard of it until recently. She knows the basics, but specs and a down payment was a no go. I'll post when I get a call back.
BTW, GlobeCLK, the CM Mitsu said they would call me as soon as they got an Evo in (the managaer told me this and took down my name and telephone number) so it's still possible to get one from them. To summarize:
Anaheim Mitsu - four (4) Lancer Evos; two silver, two yellow; auto/manual unknown; $5K down in August; no other info; "A little bit under 300HP" the guy quoted; nothing about packages/options
Costa Mesa Mitsu - one to three (1-3) Lancer Evos; color unknown; no confirmed info though; said they would call me back the instant they got an Evo in; nothing about down payment or packages/options
Browning Mitsu (CAS) - nothing is known; barely ever heard of said lady in sales; said they would call me back as soon as they could get some info

Just hope that I don't end up getting 1st on the payment list and got to a green one with 8000 dollars in alarm and stereo

LOL.....there is no green and I think they will be pretty bare Evos. I don't think there will be an optional stereo, but I could be wrong. They said it will be $32/33K so expect to pay that price, they even guaranteed me. Just keep checking back with Anaheim Mitsu and ask them as much as possible
