Drove an Evo 7 GSR last friday. I was impressed with the ride comfort and cornering improvements. But pulling power is much better in my Evo VI TME GSR. The 7 was a 280bhp beast straight outta da Jap factory with a triple plate (ordered by special request). As an overall package Seven is Heaven!.

Nah, I'll never drive a 7, it's in no way as rough as the 6. Maybe the 7.5 or 8 will be worth considering, but otherwise I'll wander to greener (harder) pastures when I have enough money. I still won't sell my 6. I intend to keep it, maybe forever...

I agree. I will NEVER ever sell my 6.5 TME Either. My buddy who owns the VII GSR has a VII RS as well that he races. But he's quite dissappointed with both.

Will Mits continue to produce the VI next year as well? I kinda get this funny feelin that they will have the VI back in the rallies if 7 fails to deliver the goods next year.

There's no way back for the 6 in the WRC championship, Mitsubishi have switched to the 7 for good as they decided to switch to a WRC spec car instead of a Gr. A car. I agree the 7's not delivring the goods, I mean it was nowhere near fast in the three rallies that it competed in and Mäkinen crashed out of two, which I think can be attributed to him trying too hard in a slow car. Next year will really show how bad the car is considering the drivers which have come in to drive it are average.

maybe is just not the way tommi's used to it or they don't have enought testings done
