You would be fugly too if you had a bra put on you and someone covered you with dirt Same with the evo IX, put a bra on it, cover it with dirt, take of the spoiler and sideskirts and you got yourself a fugly looking car.
No offense though, I love evo 8,9s and i'm sure 10 will be great too once the coplete package is released.

They wouldnt be testing a car thats going to be 330bhp with 225 width tires max on the car. Can you digitally enhance the pictures to show a brembo logo?
A few key observations and make me think it's the X:
- FMIC
- Hood vents in the camo

How can you tell those are 225 width tires?

That looks like the X to me, given all of the subtle hints everyone has already pointed out.

It's cover up so that you don't know what it looks like. It's supposed to look fugly. That's why it's called a "sneak peak," or better yet, "spy pics."

I, too, am happy with my VIII. I'm going to keep telling myself that until I have a X.

Looks to me to be the new Ralliart. AWD, turbo.....this will be real nice car. This months' MotorTrend has some shots that look like this. I'm really digging the new design on the Lancer's.

if you look at the license plates you can see they are 2 different cars and it does appear the ralliart has a fmic, pic #1 is the evo and license plate has 271 and the ralliart pic #5 has license plate # looks like 91 or 93

are you serious people.....the evo X isnt using the 4G63 block anymore because they are switching to an aluminum block(opposed to cast iron) plus...the evo X is nothing specialin fact it is worse...just like when they changed the 00 civic body style to the 01...the new X will weigh too much and it wont be as agile as the current GEN

ok... since when does an evo have to compete with a ferarri? its a totally different car... completely friggin different... an evo is the only car under 90k that made the top ten list of guys dream cars according to aol motors... and like honestly, i like the fact that the only cars out there that someone can say are similar is the bmw and the sti... i laugh at subaru's and the bmw is much more expensive and less car. so compare away, i dont want something thats built to run with something completely different from anything that looks like it. you up the hp too much and you lose your cornering... i love the cornering of the evo thats why i got it, not the base hp and not the 0-60. if i wanted a drag car i would get a cobra.
