The door would have to be a little bit shorter. There wouldn't be much room for a back seat if you look close. Still, you have much better photoshop skills than I have.

I don't think Mitsubishi would ever do this. I think if everyone expressed enough interested in a coupe that they would go ahead, and like Subaru, give us a hatch. Using the current sportback of course.

oops, forgot about the trees.... (edit)

their used to be a lancer coupe you know, back in 1999, i think it just never made it to the evo trim, dont know why, but subaru did come up with an sti coupe, also in around 1999. (pics down there)

i think it wouldnt be a bad idea, really dont think it would subtract anything from the evo soul, on the contrary it would add to it.

Interesting idea. I'd be all over a coupe version if anyone could ever convince Mitsu to try to build one

You guys have got to be kidding, the Evo has always been 4 doors... it's the only reason why I bought it =D Although, it does look nice as a 2-door.

looks bad since the rear section is way to small, the front door looks freakin huge..
That front door makes van sliding doors jelous lol seriously it looks like its got to be 6 feet long.

Oh that reminds me of the cobalt coupe? same idea there front doors are 10 feet long.

I think this version looks a lot better.

yea, could be, although im more into the idea where a coupe has a more drastic appearance and a chopped roof and lower profile like this renault and buick, i dont really like those coupes where the car looks practically the same just with 2 doors instead of 4, its boring, like this ford focus or toyota tercel, in that case i think it wouldnt even be worth it to get bothered with the coupe. i think if they would build a coupe they should go for something more like an exotic sports car, something with style that would help raise the evo's presence, and not go for something that would look like a boring econobox coupe. but i guess to each his own

Nice skills. But about the coupe version. Make a decent looking eclispse first. the eclipse looks like crap imo. redesign the exterior, put the 4b11t (either evo or raillart version) with RWD, and i'm sold. there you go mitsu now you got 2 of your cars in my driveway.
