That thing is sick! Thanks, Juicyfrys, for the pics. Those are the first really good ones I've seen. I just might sell a nut for one of those. That's beyond tight.
The only thing I don't like is the name, "Concept X." Are they dropping the Evo line and replacing it with the "Concept?" The Evo name is so widely known and respected, that to me would seem like a bad move.

Gotta Love It!!!!
Finally some good looking pictures, I especially dig the side view, for the production model they will probably rework the front hood/lights and the rear lights but it shouldn't be anything drastic.
I am just glad that the Concept X wasn't designed in California where all they can design lately are overbloated/heavy cars. So thats already a positive. It looks sexy and sleek. Mitsubishi Colt was designed in the same studio and I think the production car looks fantastic for it's segment.

put it this way
mitsu is not making much money from current Evo
u should be happy they re still keeping the name plate for the X
it is almost like BNR34 => V35
it is almost having nothing to do with the old one
customers like us is codemed to throw more money into aftermarket parts than paying mitsu R&D
they would rather make a car that have zero mod.ability and u pay them $9k more for 500 HP
I bet everyone here bought the car below MSRP and pay full price on parts w/o a poker face

Black X for me.
