Best Motoring Evo X Drive Impressions

From the Dec. issue of BM. The segment on the Evo X was quite short, but there are a few notable things:

Front:Rear weight distribution (Edit)
Evo X 5MT: 59:41
Evo X SST: 60:40
Evo IX 6MT: 62:38

Evo X C-drag: 0.35
Evo IX C-drag: 0.36

There was also a IX vs. X obstacle course, other than that, we'll have to wait until Mitsu finishes the SST so the IX and X can go head to head on Tsukuba. If you want to download, torrent it.

The only way the SST will beat the 5MT is if they up the boost on the SST car like VW does with the DSG. I'm happy to see you guys cling to your dreams though...

wait a minute...those times around the mitsu track are a bit misleading.

the guy who test drove the SST did not have the car in Super-Sport Mode as he did not even touch the paddle shifters throughout the timed run....or did they have timed runs before all this?

Those are NOT the timed laps, those number ARE front and rear weight ratio !!

If you look at the video again, it says 62:38, FLK must type it wrong
