Well since everyone else is B****ing I might as well too..

Make the little a** 2.0L bigger like the shared 2.4L engine that also make..

None of the weak 9hp increase.. 5 hp increase or whatever.. stop being puss's and make it 340 hp and son on.. other cars do it why can't you?

NO LIGHT PANSY WRISTED STEERING! I like a car to feel muscular and heafty so I feel the road.. not if you sneeze and the car wan't to fly off the road.

GET RID OF THOSE CHEAP A** WELDED ON MUFFLER TIPS..

Cut corners any way you can, huh?

They are going to rally the X, so does that make it more of a real Evo than the IX?

No offense to you...just want to try to keep this on topic. We all know how quickly this could spiral out of control...

hmm

Everyone's got an opinion but, few have reason.

Overall attempt that Mitsubishi is trying to pull off is to be respected. Some times change could throw people off but.... Go ahead, switch your style up. Then, watch the money pile up. Remember old habits die hard. Meaning, it's hard to change something that was so strongly established and the change even if it is for the over all best, could lead to the end of what it once was. Unfortunately they are a company thats after money more than inspiration. All in all, even thogh the evo changed in looks, it still lives up to its name in handling and performance and thats what the evo was always about. So who cares if its 0.5 sec slower... Thats easy to fix but, the handling and all the fancy ****s, thats a whole different ball game that should be left to the pros. Mitsu has to play this very smart because of all the changes going on in the car industry. If they mess this up they are gone so, they figured they rather loose a few fanboys in return for staying in the game. It's inevitable, everything has to change over time if not it will fall behind and fail. Ironically, this car is called the Evolution. Evolution takes place for a reason. I'm sure the next evo will be one hell of beast compared to any evo. This Evo X is just something they are throwing out there as a test mule to get ready for the real changes.

Unfortunately I can't wait anymore I want a new car... lol So yea, I will buy this and drive it proudly. Evolution is living up to it's name, why not support it?

Like I said just two posts ago...if you want to talk about how great the Evo X is, there are 100 threads to do that. This isn't the one. We only allow bashing in this thread

Looks like a marketing attempt to take on the mazda 3 speed. Too big, ugly, and well ugly.

The X can't be a true rally car because it comes with a navigation system.

Rally cars do have navigation, it is just the analog type.

Is AYC allowed in WRC? I doubt it. So X is not a true rally thing at all.

I've been following the Evo ever since I saw the Evo 5 and fell in love. This new Evo X is disappointing in just about every category. I don't know what it is, but I CANNOT get into it. I hope whoever gets one likes it, and I'm kind of excited to see the limits of the 4B11 (although I don't predict 'amazing' things from it without major major rebuilds, ie STi)

I'd also like to see how the clutchless tranny holds up to major power levels. But once again, I'm not expecting great things.



Also, even if I'm proven wrong in the future on every single thing I've pointed out , I still won't like that HUGE J.Lo *** it has
