tooooo much though

 

nice car but do you actually think it is worth that much $$$$..?

 

interesting future pics

 

^^^ Aint that the truth!

As an American living in the UK... I hear that kind of comparison all the time. Everyone seems to forget to take everything into consideration when pricing items abroad.

On a side note my buddies FQ340 has a lot of HKS bits on it as factory. FQ360 makes no mention of the same items ie intake, exhaust, FMIC hardpipes etc..

 

Nice car - but if Mitsu brought it hear it would not sell. Approx. $60,000 for an evo with 366 hp? I'd rather have my MR with mods. The people that would consider buying a 60,000 evo would also be considering a Z06 Corvette for $72,000 or a shelby GT500 with 500hp (if they can find one of those **** things for MSRP - yeah, right). OR the countless Audi's Mercedes and BMW 5 Series. Evo's are awesome - but tough sell in this country. However, offer a 366hp special edition EVO FQ-360 for $37,995 or comparable and you might see quite a few MR owners jump to that.

 

From my understanding the FQ-400 Has been announced and will be slightly modified from the 8 FQ 400. The 360 has NOTHING ON THE 400. Except for the turbo lag. 360 is also supposed to be about 7k cheaper. Its probably the way to go for daily drivers

 

 

Here is the info on the new Evolution IX FQ360.
