Sup guys, usually I dont post these kind of stuff but this is really interesting (and look pretty nice too)

This is the Lancer Fortis they have in taiwan. Insead of getting our lancers, Taiwan-Mitsubishi motors modifed for the general Taiwanese market. They are complaining they dont have the shark-nosed lancer so they made a sports edition to compensate. Lancer iO

I think it looks like a fusion of previous Evolution + golf GTI + bmw (from side)

Enjoy:

EXTERIOR










ENGINE BAY:




INTERIOR (pretty much the same):


HOPE IT"S NOT A REPOST!

Looking at it directly from the front, it looks a lot better. But I don't like what they did with the rest.
