08 Baby evo?

http://www.leftlanenews.com/mitsubis...k-in-2008.html

Looks pretty neat, what engine do you think it's using? The V6 from the 4th gen Eclipse GTV6, or a de-tuned 4G63? It would be awesome if they used the 4G63.

I don't think that version, or any 5 door Lancer, is destined for the US in the near future. The version of the Ralliart destined for the US will look just like the GTS from what we've seen on spy shots. As for the engine, if the Euro one gets the same engine as the US model, it'll be a 4B12 (2.4L) turbo.

Also, the 4G63 engine is done, you won't see any new cars coming out with that engine from Mitsu. All new 4 cylinder cars from them will be from the new 4Bxx series.

The sirius (4g) line is no more I'm afraid. Outdated design, or at least that's what they're saying.

Yeah, figures. But, heck, it's already a lower-level car compared to the X, might as well use the 4G63 that's still laying in the parts box, eh? Oh well

Wins for the biggest winshield I have ever seen - it will have to go through some significant changes before meeting the road. Could it be this is Mitsu's answer to the new STI?

I think the evo is the answer to the STI. This is probably the answer to the regular WRX.
