... Not legit at all. If you read it says that ; "So with that in mind, it was decided to speculatively render how a future Evo could look."-(carscoops.com) Basically they decided to show what they think it will look like and might I ad I hope like hell they don't smash the ugly front end of a lexus on to the X and call it gold. The new "Evo" if that is what it is called is going to be a completely new chasis not a refresh of the CZ4A

Sure, it may LOOK nice, but there isn't really anything about that concept that says "rally."

Man, look at those as-tested prices. People always talk **** about a Mitsu that costs 40 grand and think they can get a German car for the same or less.

I'm guessing this is it for the X... Hopefully they wrap it up here. It's time to move on honestly...

I suspect most of us will be shopping for a lightly used GTR in a year or two.

Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X to be axed this year, successor not planned - report

39 hours ago | by Adrian Padeanu

Due to a weak demand



Japanese media is reporting Mitsubishi will kill the Lancer Evolution X towards the end of the year.

If we were to believe Japanese newspaper Nikkan Jidosha Shimbun (Automotive News Daily), production of the Lancer Evolution X will be terminated by the end of 2014. This decision has apparently been taken due to a decreasing demand for the hot sedan and it seems Mitsubishi isn't planning an Evolution XI at all so the model will likely be canned for good.

On sale since 1992 when the original model came out, Mitsubishi managed to deliver 92,000 units in Japan and another 154,000 units worldwide. The most recent iteration of the Evo X is a UK-only special edition called "X FQ-440 MR" which packs a respectable 440 bhp (328 kW) punch from the familiar 4-cylinder 2.0-liter turbocharged engine.

Although this latest report indicates a direct replacement is not planned, we should remind you that back in November last year there was a rumor about a hybrid Lancer Evolution but such a model is still a few years off.

Timing is everything! Just when everybody is converting to 4 cylinder turbo? Mitsubishi drops the bucket and cancels the Evo? Porsche is converting to 4 cylinder turbo, the évoque and other cars all are downgrading to 4 cylinder turbos. Now is the time for the 4B11T to shine

So those 40 special EVO's they just made for the UK mean the end of the EVO's?

I thought it was a good sign of better things to come????
