Here it is guys!!

http://sportcompactcarweb.com/roadtests/0505_scc_evo/

Initial first impressions say that it's almost identical to the VIII handling wise
Noticeable increase in power
Better looking interior
New aero....no mention of rear bumper/diffuser.....but gurney flap on top of wing
Comes in RS, GSR and MR flavors
All models get ACD.......NO AYC
Only MR gets 6-speed
Weight of all 3 models are the same as VIII
Slight price increases

 

Looks like another SELLING Car from Mitsu! Great Job! Who every buys one needs to let me test Drive

 

with the exception of the revised gear ratio's, MIVEC, and some other tidbits; the US gets the watered down version yet again..

stock for stock, its a mild improvement but i am still very happy with my VIII and refuse to trade it for the world

 

Thanks

Nothin to be jealous about thanks to no auto climate controls or double dins

Very surprised no S-AYC

 

Nice Find, Can't wait to pick mine up.

 

poo, I wanted AYC. Then again, I have an 03 so maybe getting ACD wouldn't be that bad Those seats look even sweeter tho! Mitsu, come on, don't leave us hanging again, because that is just gay

 

how come the headlight is like that again? no taste

 

is too cheap to crash one for DOT. Anyways, love the black steering wheel but where is the double din and auto climate controls?

 

With the exception of a higher first and lower third, fourth and fifth gears in the five-speed transmission (used in the EVO and EVO RS), all three models will retain identical drivetrains to their respective ’05 EVO VIII versions.

Interesting, different gearbox ratios.

 

nice find

 

That car is so

 

Actually.......if you read the article, it says that teh headlights and taillights are going to be smoked like the MR's.

 

great find, is that in the new issue? because my copy didn't come yet....btw, still love my '03 lol

 

Thanks

 

Has it even debuted in New York? I hate that's it's watered down...AGAIN! All I wanted was the S-AYC.
