The diesel engines can put out some good numbers, as long as you can keep the heads on them. Hope they can keep the engines fairly lite, it is pretty amazing that it will do 0-60 in 5.0 seconds.

I would rather them discontinue the evo than make it into a piece, but hopefully they will realize the fanbase they have and steer the evo back towards its former glory

I heard they couldn't afford the redevelopment due to the quake that hit them. Supposedly some of the 2012 Lancers will be lacking Bluetooth as well.

I don't know why... but I'm beginning to agree with you on this...

Mitsu needs to start making better cars, make more money, and then surprise us all in 5+ years with the rebirth of a turbocharged/AWD Eclipse and Evo... even if they're named something else... we'll know when we we see them...

Time to let the Evo rest imho :S

Might just grab me a X while they're running out the door faster than I've ever seen... RC Hill in Orlando brings them by the bunch and they run out within weeks...

If they are going to make the new Evo into a hybrid like they have been talking about then let it die and bring it back later when they need a new performance car. The move "upmarket" with the Evo X was a bad move in my opinion. They priced the under 30 yr old demographic out.

NEW THEORY
I was reading a Motor Trend from a couple months back the other night, and found a mentioning of future Evo plans inside. It mentioned that two potential scenarios were considered by Mitsubishi, I think it was last year, one being a hybrid Evo and the other being that the Evo would be reinvented as a new car based off of the Colt. Supposedly, they decided to go with basing a whole new Evo off of the Colt, similar to the WRC AWD version of the Ford Focus. Unfortunately, they did not mention a source, but it's a new theory at least.

Electric cars are the next big thing. In the end despite not wanting a performance car to end, in your gut you know moving to greener cars is the right thing to do.

I disagree with both those points, I'm not even fully convinced electric cars are actually greener than gas.

Rainforests be damned I want my race cars.
