Nope. Porsche/Audi more or less look the same year after year. When a design is a win, in the case of the evo x then it'll trickle down to the rest of the products. Every manufacturer does it.

If your Evo is clean enough that it looks like the other Mitsus running around town, you aren't driving it correctly.

It is called a "corporate face". Honda is doing it and it is butt ugly. The new Outlander will look considerably different from the 2012, so if that means anything to you, the diminutive lineup will now have some distinction. Personally, I like the look of the Outlander Sport and how it parrots the Lancer/Evo.

As for having a clean Evo and not driving it "correctly", that all depends on the methods one is using to clean an X. Gotta look good while going fast. Of course, down Iowa way, all they have is dirt roads, so that may explain why some people's Evo's might look down and dirty. LOL

Nope I don't mind at all. Because the Evo stands out like a sore thumb compared to the rest of them all.

^ Yez I confuse Madza 3s with Lancers a lot at night lol...

and yes 99% of manufacturers have a corporate brand to identify their cars... Porsches look ALL the same, same as Benzes, BMWs have all the exact same front lol

I actually think Mitsu has the weirdest corporate image... Eclipse front end has a circle gapping mouth, the Lancer and Outlanders have the trapezoid mouth, the Galant kept a 2003 looks till today, the new 2013 Mirage looks like no other car they have today, the i-MiEV has no Lancer looks no matter how you look at it... they're a big mess

You've forgotten the best one, the Mitsubishi Fuso! Nothing like a lancer at all...

It seems like all the brands are doing the same thing as far as styling goes.

The Lancer, Outlander Sport and Outlander all have a similar front fascia with the in terms of the chrome nose surround. But that's pretty much where the similarities end.

The new Chargers look have a similar front portion like the Evo. I drove by a dealership and saw about twenty or so parked alongside each other and thought they were Evo's. And I agree, the rear ends of Mazdas look similar to the Evo as well.
