So true. Long live the Evo and its CO2 emmisions and "weekly" service. I wouldnt have it any other way. Not so long ago I was one of those PS3 kids who grew up and bought my dream car. Life is good!

Very true, I grew up in South America with Evo II's and III's, then saw a few IV's through VI's. Moved to the US and wanted an VIII when I graduated with my Bachelors, my GSX was my "Evo Coupe" and held me over for a long time. I am finally in a position to properly afford one and pulled the trigger on the X.

Interesting article, except he ruined his credibility for me by saying "big boot". What is he smoking? A 1987 ferrari has a bigger trunk space than the evo...

In all reality, I just cant see mitsu "killing" the evo. It just blows my mind to even think about making the evo a TDI/Hybrid. If mitsu engineers/management is that clueless, time to go steal myself a MUT so I dont ever have to deal with mitsu in any shape or form.

I agree with you, they are stupid to think about dropping it or changing it to some other hybrid or whatever they decide to do. Thats what happens when everyone wants to be green.

Color is way better than the movement.

Interesting read. I surely hope they dont stop making the Evo

I guess the value of our cars will go up if they do?
