No Evo in Road & Track 2004 Previews

I was looking at the Road & Track 2004 previews and they don't have an Evo. I mean this is practically a completely different car from the Lancer and they just lumped all 7 models into one page with a drab picture of the Lancer.

Disappointing, especially seeing the high marks they gave the Evo. They talk about it slightly in the article but mostly as a secondary trim line.

I saw an EVO VII in 1:32 at Wal-Mart. Stupid thing came in a $20 set with a car mover rig that had a PT Cruiser and an S2000 boxed in with it too. I would've bought it right away if it were loose.

Huh? Oct 2003 edition: New Cars 2004: page 88, both a pix and a separate column for the Lancer Evolution (sep from Lancer). They do list side airbags as "std", which is wrong.

What preview are you looking at?
