Pretty soon Dodge will be manufacturing the Evo in Illinois.
93% U.S 3% Can 4% Japan instead of 100% Japan like it says on my window sticker.

It'll be exciting to see some photos of a prototype of the actual production X at the Detroit Show - come this January. Can't wait, guys. Only two months remain.

To follow in the USDM, from the Mitsubishi side, is the 2008 Lancer ES, Lancer Ralliart and Lancer Evolution.

So, how can the (Mitsubishi Motor Lineup) be 93% Dodge? Everything besides the platform will be completely different for both manufactor. The lancer lineup (ES/Ralliart/Evolution) will always and continue to be made in japan.

Did you not read my first post? I was being sarcastic about the 93% U.S thing. But thanks for the Wikipedia facts.

this is the second pic of the same front end I have seen now.
The first time I saw it was on that Silver Clay model of the rally version. So who really knows.
