There are complete list of pic on RRE website. They posted them long time ago.

As far as I know, that's the demo car owned by Mitsubishi of America. Remember the EVO VI on various magazines? (SCC, Super street, and some others) That's the promotional car....

Ah, I remember the RRE thread, but the pics I saw were of an Evo 7. I must have missed this one... my bad.

gplsek, I need details! Is it street legal and registered? What was your impression... power, brakes, handle, ride, etc.

the car is owned by Mitsubishi MotorSales of America, it is their promo car and they had it at the Rim of the World Rally in May.
It was on display in their tent. This same car has been at many rally event and dealer days over the past 12months. I am sure they now have a VII used for the same purposes.
I rally in the SCCA ProRally series in an Audi S2, but lets just say afer a ride in an EVO, I am now awaiting delivery of my car (clearing customs as we speak) and hoping to make its rally debut in December
at the Ramada Express Rally in December (http://www.rallyusa.com)

Wow, now I really want an Evo. Must........import............Evo................. ........V.....

Do you have any idea how to find out where it'll demo next? I'd love to see if it will ever come to the DC area... rallyXing has gotten pretty big here.

Thanks for the info and glad to have a Pro Ralliest on the boards. Please keep us up to date on your progress with the Evo.

not sure if the car will be in DC. They had their promo cars at the
NY Autoshow. There was just a big rally up in Maine at the end of July.
There is another rally in Ojibwe Minesotta this weekend. Unfortunetally
all the east coast national events are done for the year. I think there will be some smaller rally events in your area, with some EVO's in it.

for more rally info check out www.bensrallypage.com

I think that EVO VI was in sport compact car last year as well (april 00 I think).

If all goes well I may be able to have a car in our area (VA,MD) later this year.

Were you at the last rallycross Mark? I was there racing my Galant. I got a flat tire right before the last run.

Russ, couldn't make it. My uncle was leaving the country and I couldn't leave for the day because it was his last. Hopefully there'll be more. Sucks to hear about the flat.

Russ, is this through Evolution Imports or a private venture? Is this going to be street legal? Can't wait to check it out when it gets here.
