Whos not buying an X? for whatever reason
I like Ferraris, Lambhorginis, Bugattis, yeah I will get one of those
In all reality, in the 35K range, I don't think anything beats an Evo and the next generation shouldn't be that much more expensive. As far as the engine is concerned, Mitsubishi had to drop it for something totally new sooner or later (4G63 is over 20 years old). I know Evo X has a lot of haters on this board but somehow I have a feeling a lot of you will be converted back (probably under different nicknames lol) when the actual Evo X will be revealed.
And some of you guys are talking about luxury cars, that is one of the Evo X areas that Mitsu wanted to improve upon, Evo X as a daily driver/cruiser, I don't think it will be as rugged as previous Evos but that doesn't mean it won't be faster or more nimble.

2)Everyone is right when it comes to luxury. “I still don’t understand why anyone would buy an Evo with leather seats, it puzzle the mind =?, lol”
3)Dealers suck big time + service and warranty hassles.
4)The Evo X looks like crap, Audi wannabe with IS350 taillights
5)It looks like you are a fan of the Evo X...wait until you see my CLK AMG, it will blow your mind and take your girl =PP

So far.
Not sure what your point here is. As it is, the X isn't very "luxury." Cruise control is expected in anything over 20K, and even under 20K it's frowned upon if a car doesn't have it. The Nav is nice and a touch lux, but you don't HAVE to get it. And an I don't think I've ever heard anyone saying they LIKE cheap interiors. There may be some who don't mind them, but they usually strip them out.
True.
Really, I don't see a ton of resemblance. THere was acomparison pic posted in another thread of an RS4. To me, the X makes the RS4 look like the designers were practicing with the concepts, whereas the X is the full execution of them.
I will be buying the X for a completely differnet reason. Frankly, I buy a car because it pleases me, I don't give a crap what others may think of it. So I have absolutely no envy of your AMG and would sell it in a heartbeat to pay for an X. And as for a girlfriend, if she would leave me for you just because of your car, you're welcome to her.

IF you take a girl that wants you for your car then your the dumbest ***** ****er alive
By the way how is the EVO X a luxury car.. wtf... someone care to explain or is this another bull**** line that people are trhwoing cause you guys are running out of ideas.
Check the IS350 interior then look at the EVO X interior or CHECK 335i interior and compare i dont see luxury in the X interior at all.. I know its better than our interior.It's funny how alot of people complained about the EVO 8 and 9 interior being ****ty and when they upgrade it people say its becoming A LUXURY car.

2. And I ask, what luxury??? Last time I checked the new base Lancer has a very understated, simple interior, it's more sporty than luxury, and leather seats/navigation/DSG will probably be an option so if you don't like it, don't get it, simple as that.
3.Actually I have very good experience with my local dealer, they are always willing to negotiate, service is also decent, every time I go they don't give me prices out of this world for simple tasks, they are pretty comparable with independent shops, basically it all comes down to a fact that they want me to come back again and who knows, maybe I'll buy another car from them in few years, most of the staff is knowledgeable and not pushy, but then again, maybe it's just my luck.
4.Actually the new Lancer is a huge improvement over the last generation. Even if they did try to copy Audi, at least they know who to copy and how because the new Lancer looks more expensive than it actually is. And if anything, the new Lancer was designed in Germany by Europeans and if anything the taillights were inspired by Alfa Romeo, which again, is not a bad thing.
5.Ahhhh, Mercedes CLK AMG, while I like the performance aspect of that car, aesthetically it doesn't do a whole much to me, actually except the CLS I find the current Benz designs to be pretty much stale and all looking the same, if anything I prefer the BMW designs and would buy a BMW over a Benz anytime, anyday. And my GF is a fan of Italian supercars so you still have a long way to go, nice try but no cigar, looks like another weekend at a corner for you

Aww i bet you got hurt thats why you feel that way huh.... it doesnt matter if im looking for love or not the fact is i respect women.
Usually guys who rely on their cars to get girls are UGLY
An ugly guy with a nice car can get hoes, but not a genuine girl. Maybe thats you

A lot of people thought the Mustang had to have a 289, then a 302 and now the modular V-8. Those engines evolved to be better. This engine is the next step in the evolution of the lancer. Love it or hate it. It is what it is. I am not planning on buying a car for more than 40 K for a while.
Cars these days are all about 'evolution' and the 4B11 or whatever can only be a step up. Ford used iron blocks in their first ohc engines, then switched to aluminum for a few years, and those Al blocks turned out to be some of the best and most durable. The Teksid block from 97-99 cobras is still in high demand today.
I've never owned an Evo, but I have driven one a few times. I'm willing to bet that even though the X is a tad bigger and has a different motor and all that, it will still be the best Evo yet. People always complain about new stuff until they see what it is capable of. Wait til AMS and Buschur get ahold of this car and motor and they will be tearing apart tracks and drag strips all over the country.
All I know is, as soon as I can afford one, I'll be purchasing one.
