Very nice! Now this Evo X is something to get excited about. It's a little less garrish than the earlier prototypes that I've seen in pictures.

I like everything but the seats. They look really cheap IMO.

First the article states the shift paddles are made out of magnesium, then later in the article says that they are made out of titanium,
im going with high quality japanese plastic.

There will be a Ralliart. It's not unveiled yet and it will have the 4B11T, not a 2.4 like this article speculates.

The new Lancer is going to be a winner.

I'm thinking plastic paddles as well.

It's going to have the same paddles as the Outlander. They're not Plastic, just go to your local Mitsu dealer or Autoshow and check it out. They're Magnesium Alloy, and very good quality.
