IF one cannot see that the X follows the lines of an EVO then you my friend are BLIND. IT might look a bit more futuristic but the future is HERE. Aggressive front, 4 doors, big wing, fender flares, big brakes, still TURBOED i dont get how it isn't an EVO.

Its not an Evo because its missing the 4g63.

From looking at pics of the X, I still have to say I prefer the IX's looks.

evo's have always been made to make the person driving look like he knows something about rallying/racing.
Evo X/Nissan GTR- Made to make person look like an alien/soccormom/gayfer

Chuck Norris would drive an Evo I-IX
Chuck Norris would not drive a Evo X
LOL!!!!!! you'll prolly be the first one on here to buy one.....!!!!!!!

I don't own an evo, but since you are talking about looks
I voted for X because it looks way better then 9 or 8 imo
If you dont like it, that's cool. Evo 8 and 9 are still very nice cars

Regardless that **** is gonna have like 7 airbags as well.. so compared to an IX MR.. that RS is going to be the chubby one..

Can you say weight:Power ratio.. yeah despite it having a lighter motor.. so what.. an advantage is going to be weight distribution which is good but when ppl attempt to mess with it.. oh man is going to be fun.. Warranties go left and right.. now imagine the X.. same thing buddy..

Tell me Aluminum is not a great conductor of heat.. that's why they got them iron sleeves in there buddy boy.. but again its engineering.. I doubt the bish was engineered to withstands more than what they are already giving it. Out the box once again is gonna be good but once someone tries to bump the boost up, install a bigger turbo which btw is not gonna be that easy now cuz am like 99% sure they are going to invert the bish just like the lancer.. all that aluminum crap is gonna go bye bye..

Many say mitsu is not gonna let their flagship car down.. of course not.. its gonna perform better than a stock IX.. but beyond that point they already have let us down..

Now hating something you drive.. i dont hate the evo itself cuz its in my financial situation the best bang for the buck.. but when it comes to it.. I enjoyed my 06 350Z even more.. the only thing it wasn't was faster than a evo..

I'll post a poll amongst 100 ladies.. which one looks better.. a 350Z or a Evo.. got 100 bux the Z takes the majority of the votes.. I had chicks walk up to me cuz the car did the talking.. something that with the evo barely happends.
What do you know about HP to weight ratio about X? X is going to be a bit heavier no doubt. Did you read that it's gonna be 320 hp? yeah, lets talk about ratio
What do you know about how well it's gonna mod? How about you get one and post some facts instead of theories about a car that you know a few things about.
I love when people talk about cars that gonna suck when it's not even out yet.
If it doesnt mod well, I'm with you, I will get IX but lets jump into conclusions yet shall we?
350z is pretty fast. Did you see that 07 with HR engine ran 13.3? They only advantage Evo got is from dig and on twisties

Definately need to see a X in the flesh but so far I like what I see. My real concern though is the weight increase. It would be hard not to improve on the VIII/IX's interior so that will most likely be a plus.

Most people on this forum will like the 8s and 9s (since that's what they have). However, I'm confident that the majority of non 8 and 9 owners will prefer the X. Sales will reflect this.

/prediction.
