cloth seats in the evo are fine...those recaro leather seats on my s2000 showed premature wear only after 15k miles, eventhough i treated the the seats with leather conditioner once every 2 weeks!!

Well, the AYC I might be able to live without - but the ACD I wouldn't mind playing with!
Then fly to Taiwan.. then over to Brunei... no kidding...

okok...here are the info for the EVO...there will be 1500 made!!!! on the realz...mitsu last yr overproduced the evo because of the movie hype 2F2F.... 2 evo's per dealership....out of the the 1500 evos only 300 RS will be available RS's will most likely be special order for the customers.

specs.... same power on all evos

regular evos = 2 packages
1. standard evo, no sunroof, cf spoiler standard!!!! no more small wings.

2. sun and sound package = you get sunroof, leather recaro seats, and a subwoofer (sames as the ralliart)

RS Model:
Yes it comes with AC...but i believe there is no radio and no spoiler...i left the sheets at werk.

I will have more info tomorrow. i have 2 mitsu corp. reps visiting the dealership tomorrow...and i have a meeting with them since i am a retention manager.
This wouldent surprise me....

If Mitsubishi wants to sell more evo's, they should offer an RSII packaged car.

Wouldn't suprise me one bit if Mitsu is fazing out the Evo's and 04 will be the last year for them here in the states.

If that happens i'm sure everyone will trade in their 02 WRX for a STi when 05/06 rolls around . Subaru jump in the market and all of the rally fans bought one and some have enought money to switch over. The evo is an awsome car and many have not realize how good it really is. Just give it time for others to realize the performance and the 4 door look.

Retention Manager. Is that to keep customers coming back? What about the big glaring difficencies.. No Cruise Control? No 6 speed to lose the huge 4th-5th gear drop.. Underbody Aero Panels? Mitsu's racking in the dough with $5 brake cooling air guides for $100+ why not some more panels from the mid section back for a few hundred dollars? improved CAFE numbers, less wind noise and less lift.. How about some mature metallic colors too, like those found on the IS300s?

Is it going to take until the 05 MR shows up to get these missing bits resolved.

now the clutch is a great clutch...but most of the people who ruin there clutches happen to be young guys who race them on the track....you can read it lout and clear in the warranty manual....i dont even have any warranties left on mah car....

dere are 2 evos that are in my town....a high school who i believe is 17....which i think burned his clutch about 8000 miles...and dere is dis old guy driving a yellow evo...who hasnt burned his clutch and he is at 28,000 miles... u see the difference in the driver and experience!

to each his own, I personally think the stock clutch is terrible. I've owned many cars with more power than the evo, and they were driven harder, and I never observed a failure rate anywhere near high as that of the evo.
