In the market of an EVO

Hi,
I'm waiting for the X to come out
but also wondering that how's the reliability of Mitsubishi?
and what is the average life of an EVO?

I've never owned a Mitsubishi but have always wanted one

thanks very much

The X will be a completely new chassi with a completely new engine. Be prepared for those gremlins that plague any new platform.

This Evo is my first Mitsu as well and I am very pleased with the performance and daily aspects of the vehicle. I have a little under 10k miles but there are quite a few owners in the 100k range running just fine. Beware of the dealers though, they aren't referred to satan for no reason....

You are going to have to wait till November of 07 for the X to come out. I was going to wait too, but I just got my IX MR and I couldnt me more happier
