shown during SEMA? thanks

 

No. It will be at the autoshow this year though.

 

What is that show called

 

From what I know, the actual Evo X prototype (not to be confused with Concept X) will be shown in January at the Detroit Auto Show (http://www.autoblog.com/2006/09/28/d...ets-new-evo-x/)

 

it will be at the detroit auto show in january but there havent been any mentions as to whether mitsu will be showning anything about the new X model off at SEMA

but apparently the model they have currently is 90 percent done so i mean they very well could show something or just wait until january and unveil the actual production ready exterior and possibly interior for the 2008/2009 model

 

nope

 

This is good news. Is the proptotype going to be 100% what we can buy?

 

2008/2009. i have heard like everyone else likes to state, that it would be released end of 2007, i guess to be a 2008 model. rumors only though

 

I wish I knew. Mitsu execs were saying that aesthetically Concept X is about 90-95% production ready so if I would to believe them I would say that prototype will be pretty close to the final version but then again when was the last time any car company released a car that was 100% based on a prototype? There probably will be some changes, probably the overall shape and roof line will stay the same but headlights or tail lights will probably be altered.

To make it all short, I don't know, no one does except for Mitsubishi designers and execs. All we can do is guess and predict.

 

I think I'll fly to Detroit for the Autoshow! I sure hope they are going to start selling it at the end of 2007.

 

You think?

 

I go to detroit every year for the show. I know the Evo X will be there, but I am really leaning toward the new supra. I hope Toyota shows up with one of those too.

 

I hope so we could shoot some pics as a stop gap for 2008.

 

i was talking with someone here on the boards who works for toyota and the supra is going to be released as a lexus and be amazingly expensive. it doesn't sound like the supra of old at all. things may change though

it would be awesome to see this X at a show and have some actual pics. I'm guessing Mitsu will shy away from SEMA because it seems they are distancing themselves from the tuner image.

 

Doesn't it bother anyone else that they're building the X on the Dodge Calibre chasis?
