To many bells and witsles on this car and it does not convince me at all.. the thing is that I am not the only one not impressed.

What is that about the RS rims? are the 16", where did the Brembo brake went?
The RS looks like a regular Lancer. And what is all that about the RS not having the Super AYC? . I put my money on the Evo IX for now.

hmm i was reading it and came across the line "this engine generates more torque at 422 Nm (43.0 kg-m)/3500 rpm and has better response than its 4G63 predecessor" 422Nm translate to 315-319 lb ft torque.... NIce
maybe the final version of evo may have more than 300hp

Yeah but that is the Japanese version/specs. Once it arrives to the US shores we will readjust the ECU for emissions and gas resting about 5-10hp.

Look at any other counterpart European or Japanese car imported to the USA, due mainly to emissions the cars are slightly detune.

Eh,

Wouldn't throw away the final US HP numbers so quickly, think the whole reason for the engine switch was so we can have a engine throw out higher numbers WHILE meeting emissions & a engine that'll easily stay above 20mpg.
