+1, stop *****ing and wait for the product to come out. There is no way to say anything good or bad until there is something on the road to actually drive.

I would love to stomp the $h!t out of expensive sports cars and still get 40mpg.

They just need to change the front of the car. That's my biggest issue with the X. I really just can't get used to the gaping mouth look. I recently picked up a nice used IX MR. I'll keep that one until they give the X or XI a new front end.

The front of the car is the best part - makes the car having THE look.

If the come out with the eclipse GSX again it will more than likely be a awd model, and that is what would compeate with the STI

I'll believe it when i see it. Which i hope not to, because it will be a big mistake on Mitsu's part.

It sux but in all honesty, the Evo X sucks already. It's a fat pig and nothing like the earlier models. Imagine how much fatter the XI will be.

Imagine plugging your car in for a charge?

Or having an emergency like driving your pregnant wife to the hospital and sitting there in front of the "plug" saying comon...cmon LOL (peter griffin comes to mind)
And who doesnt like to shoot fire from their exhaust from time to time...

GTFO

Seems like car companies arent too concerned with the enthusiast needs/wants period. How can they do this to the Evolution name?!

I was real upset when Audi stopped their biturbo B5 S4 engine and produced the V8 4.2 that you cant push **** out of and that REALLY pushed me to leave the Audi scene, which I did. Now my evo?
