Mitsubishi CEO confirms US Lancer Evolution
Hey guys, Salvavus may be telling the truth. I just got the new Motor Trend magazine in the mail (one with SVT Cobra on cover) and there is an article in there about Mitsubishi bringing the Evolution VII to america next year. They say that it will NOT be watered down. Japan's EVO currently has the hp listed at under 300, but Motor Trend says the US version may be same engine, which is probably really over 300.... It will have the same all wheel drive, 5-speed transmission....and the big wing!!!!!!! It didn't mention the recaro seats, but it looks like America is getting an untouched monster from Japan.... I'm not suprised that this is happening, as many companies are starting to bring over their cars untouched..... RSX Type-R is coming to america in a year or two, and Volkswagen is bringing over the 25th Anniversary GTi!!!!! (1.8Turbo engine, 6-speed, body kit, aluminum interior trim, recaro seats, performance exhaust, lowered suspension, 18 inch BBS rims, in-dash CD changer, brembo big brake system - only selling 1000 online this summer -source of info- www.vwvortex.com) It's looking real good for the Lancer EVO VII!
