Does anybody know when the 2011 model year will be released (or can guess from previous model years)? I am thinking about buying the evo but I can wait if the 2011 is coming out soon.

As a newb to this forum, I tried searching first but I couldn't find anything. I also tried searching to see if there are any known (or rumored) upgrades coming in 2011 but I couldn't find that either (only a thread with a wishlist for 2011/2012 changes). Anybody have an ideas or guesses to this?

 

see: 2009 model year.

Just in case you don't know, Evo's are released every other year in the US. So far for the X there is the 2008 and 2010 model. There will be 2010 Evo X's still sitting on dealer lots come 2012.

 

Then how you explain the 2003-2006.5 models???

 

I don't understand.


I haven't been following the evo that closely the last few years, but I thought 2009 was the only model year they ever skipped.

 

The Evo 8s and 9s were released every year. Every model year, that is.

The Evo X has been unique in the fact they "skipped" 2009 here in the States.

Seeing as how they did a whole new trim package (MR-T) in 2010, I kind of doubt they'll do too much for the next model year release. The most I can see is maybe an integration of FUSE or something in the MR-T, and as an option for the GSR or something.

I doubt we'd see any mechanical changes. Let alone mechanical changes we actually give a damn about. We're not going to see "less rattles" or "a diff that doesn't fall apart" or "a TC-SST that doesn't **** the bed" or "a non-notchy 5 speed" or, God forbid, a "6 speed normal manual"

 

2007 was skipped as well in US.

 

They skipped 2007 in the US as well.

 

Haha. Well put, migs!

 

If you couldn't find any information it is fair to assume there is no information at this time. See the Future Lancer forum.
