i heard white unicorns are going to come out of the hood every time you boost it......

should be awesome

 

I heard the unicorn can **** gold.

 

Well it's a good thing if they show up at the end of this year.. Then by the time I was originally planning to get an X, they'll have works out some of the production quirks.

 

I posted this answer before, do a search, its the end of the first quarter 2008, price will be 39,999,
I dont think I will be trading in my 9 though.

 

Love to see a source on the 39,999

 

Yeah, no disrespect bro but I'm calling B.S. on the time and price. If you're right, drinks on me.

 

Uh guys if you look at Mitsubishi's website it says right on the main page at the bottom spring of 2008. Just mouse over the 2008 Lancer Evolution Button and it tells you that.

 

Thanks for raining on the parade. Lot's of people expect manufacturers to post the most conservative time possible to allow for shipping delays, possible last-minute changes, etc. Hopefully we can expect it much sooner than that, because it seems like the Evo X is much closer to production spec than the new STi which is expected Jan/Feb 08. One would hope Mitsu would try to tie/beat the STi on-sale, since spec is already finalized, no need to hold back. Of course, this may just be my wishful thinking...

 

Are dealership stated that in August 07 it is suppose to arrive here in Reno, NV.
Also a dealership in Boston is pre-ordering them. They must be getting here soon. I wouldn't pre-order a car unless I get it with in a 3-5 month duration.

 

preorderd mine in May. According to the dealer, it should come out around christmas time.

To be honest, I think their guesses are as good as our's....

 

besides body design, what are the main differences between the VIII, IX, And X?

 

I can't speak about the VIII and IX, all I know is that the IX picked up MIVEC on the intake cam.

The X however is brand new from the ground up. New body, new styling, new suspension, new driveline, new engine, etc.. I doubt it shares many parts with the IX.

 

Spoke with the Evo salesman at Schaumburg Mitsubishi in Schaumburg IL, couple of days ago.

I have no idea if this is BS, but this is exactly what he told me:

>They will have the first EVO X cars by December of 2007.

>The first shipment will be SST units with manual gearbox cars to start arriving some months later.

>There will not be multiple trim levels. None. No RS, no ES, no MR. None. There will only be the regular LANCER and the EVO. The car will be priced in the low $30K range... meaning under $35,000. He said that they are trying to stay away from the inflated pricepoint of the MR ($36,000) because the cars didn't sell very well at that price.

>The cars will have 304HP *he sounded a bit sketchy on this* (I have no idea if that means at the wheels, crank, de-tuned, boost clipped, etc... )



***** Like I said... this could all just be total BS because they guy knows that I'm in the market to buy and he just want's to get me interested / on the line for a quick sale. So take this with a grain of salt...*****

Just thought I'd share my experience.

 

i don't think its gonna be too smart to go in and trade in on a X right away i was thinking about it but im not too sure.

 

and diamonds......
