What do you think about Mitsubishi's Lancerio in Taiwan



I was talking in another thread about hp and manufacturer claims, and mentioned the new Lancer iO they have in Taiwan. Earlier this year mitsubishi released what was viewed by some the old man / luxury look for the Lancer Fortis . http://www.lancerfortis.com.tw/ Still the same car underneath that metal body, but more refined. I rather liked it, as they pandered to an older market segment. some of the young guys hated it and wanted to hunt down the designer, and apply the tar and feather treatment.

Now looking at the recently released Lancer iO http://www.lancerio.com.tw , are any of us North American Lancer owners jelous of the design differences of this. With what seems to be an even more aggressive front end.

What do you think

1. Do you like what North America Mitsubishi has done with your lancer?
2. Does the passive looking Lancer Fortis appeal to you?
3. Or has the Lancer iO got it right??

That car right there is how the Evo X should look like. I know a lot of you guys won't agree but someone with photoshop skills can perhaps put a wing and the hood scoop and you will see what im talking about. Lancer iO FTW!
