Est Ship dates on the computer were Nov, 18 2011 for the first shipment then Dec, 19 2011 for the 2nd batch... We're trying to get a PB from the Nov shipment. Delivery is probably a week after shipment.
Long as it's gray, I don't really mind, haha. I guess I need to make my way to a dealership and see if I can reserve one.

I had planned on getting a 2012 Evo GSR, but the uncertainty about them even coming out, plus talk of a price increase, made me decide to get a 2011 GSR. There are bargains out there. I got mine about $1500 under list price. A dealership in Florida was charging 30-31K for new Evos in August. I wanted an Octane Blue and all they had was Wicked White, so I paid more for the color that I wanted.

I was at the dealer where I bought my other 2011 Evo GSR and they said they were not sure when the 2012's would come out if at all. They seemed to indicate that the warmer weather states will get them before those of us in the frozen north.

Was going to trade my RA for an Evo GSR but they sold the one they had, and saying there weren't anymore. Would love to hear from someone else in Canada looking around to see if there's any in stock.

Otherwise, I'm eager to hear about changes to the Evo in the 2012 models. Eco button, etc etc.

I do a decent Daily Drive. So that Eco button is nice given how **** the driving is in Montreal

Just got back from a dealership around me, and they said they have 2 2012's coming in by mid Dec/Jan. He said there wasn't much change between the '11 and '12, but I didn't ask much because I was too excited to see evos were coming in

when the 12's come out the dealerships will be trying to get rid of the 2011's at pretty good prices

Contacted another dealership and they said they are receiving a *Mercury Gray* 2012 Evo. Quick google search shows that it may be a tad bit lighter than a GG. Haven't heard anything else about a Titanium Gray though

Yeah the Outlander Sport came up for me...gonna miss that dark effect GG had. It's okay on X's but sexy on VIII's and IX's.

Went to Mitsu's site and checked out both colors side by side, and MG is in fact a good deal lighter (on their car building site at least). I may reconsider the color if that's the case

**Edit - looking at youtube videos, it looks like it really depends on the lighting. Overcast seems to yield a GG, but bright sunlight shows a lighter shade, which definitely looks lighter from what I can see.

I just went to Mitsubishi's site and they only show 2011's, no 2012's. Where did you go to compare GG to this new shade of gray?

I had 2 tabs open in my browser - one on the '11 GG Evo, and the other on the '11 MG Outlander Sport, so I just quickly swapped back and forth to see the difference. I actually went to the dealer and saw the MG Outlander Sport, and it def is lighter if that is the color they do in fact go with. I would dare to say its a shade or two darker than the Apex Silver, with possibly a hint of gold metallic? They had what I believe was a GG Outlander right across from it, so the differences were easy to spot.

Side note - the normal '12 Outlander comes in GG, soooo maybe a GG Evo is still plausible. Both the dealer and I thought Mitsu might be trying to keep the paint scheme the same across models, but not if the '12 Outland comes in GG and the '11 Sport comes in MG. Just some observations.

Long story short - no point in trying to play this guessing game, we might as well wait for the official announcement, which can't be too far out from now.

Was told the MSRP for the '12 is gonna be $35305. Got a quote for the options I wanted as well, but I'm gonna see what other dealers have. Never hurts to know your options.
