It's not too too bad, but I still don't like it. when buschur or ams run low 9s or 8s in it I may change my mind

I hate the front end. The rest is OK. I guess it is growing on me. It looks heavy as $hit though. I look forward to seeing one in person next year. Doubt I will ever buy one though. I love my VIII.

I hope it grows on me cause right now I don't like it. The 4g eclipse failed to gain my interest, unless they come out with that turbo edition. This new Evo looks like it's gonna be a beast and fun to drive though. But I'll be sticking with my VIII. Maybe when i pay it off, I'll get a X as a daily.

Unhappy

looks like the base lancer with a diferent bumper. I'm kind of disappointed.

different headlights, cool body kit and a bad *** spoiler was the way to go.

whats the point in driving a high performance car if it looks like a regular car.

Playing devils advocate here: Think of it as a "sleeper" in a sense. Your average person can't tell the difference. So you just may get an idiot in a camaro or mustang who thinks he's pullin up on a stock, base model lancer.

Not bad, still looks better than the new subaru. I miss the stance of the prototype, but a drop can fix that easily. It does look quite heavy compared to the IX.

Oh Really? The photos were provided in a press release by MITSUBISHI MOTORS:















It doesn't get more "final" or official than that.

They watered it down big time.....the rims are different, no turn signal on side mirrors, the fenders don't look as aggressive..

Anyone see a resemblance of a galant in the front? it's like a bunch of old mitsu styles mashed together

I think it's a big improvement. I would never have considered an Evo, but this is something a grown man might be able to drive without people thinking your driving a kids car.
