Hmmm. I am almost sure it was there earlier. I got it from this link:

http://www.iwsti.com/forums/showthre...light=evo+note

It might have come from Autocar, actually. Again, I said "I doubt it" in the original post, so YMMV... No one can be sure what the specs will be until they are actually released, so I wouldn't put too much trust in a a post in a place that is titled: "Future Evo Models: Discuss any rumors and/or news concerning future Lancer Evolution models in here."

It's a typo, it suppose to be 300hp. Anyways, article and pictures are old as they are in the official Evo X thread sticky above.

The article said it will share the Cailber platform as well. No thanks. I guess just stick with the Evo9.

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.

Expect the X to be liked by a broader range of people. The waiting list is inevitable. How long we'll have to wait depends on Mitsu.
