You can't just change the personality of a car to make it feel more high strung.
you do understand that for 90% of the population, a high strung car is dangerous right?

in order to increase appeal to the masses, you simply have to cater to their tastes even if it's not what you personally want or like.

ITS A CONSPIRACY

X SUCKS, eventhough no one has it yet.

Please dont buy one because you will be a victim of lies and deceipt

X is actually a n/a lancer with different body pannels on it

I honestly do wonder what Edmunds got in return for that article from MMNA.

Well, I wouldn't say dangerous as much as undesired. Totally understand what Mitsu is trying to accomplish. Maybe they feel there are enough I-IX's out there in the used car market to accomodate the hardcore Evo fans.

America's law is bull****. In Illinois, We can't even tint the front windows, and there are only approximately 5 states with that gay law. People who complain about the X as a heavy and slow car should really think about it. Who actually drives an unmodified Evo? I would think there are very few people like that. Just look at ARC's evo. It already have brought out a lot of power. Only time can tell.

"Mr." redteam22003 ", what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this" forum "is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul."


LOL!!!!!

has done this before ... just look at what happened from the Evo VI to the Evo VII.
