Is that dry weight or wet weight? That could explain the difference.

It looks weird to see a v6 mustang having run good times on a track. They have come a long way.

The 08 Evo X started selling in 07. Mitsu usually launches a model year the summer/fall before the year actually starts.

The 08 Evo X didn't really start selling in the states until March 08 (I had a down payment on one, that was the soonest they could get one). But they did seem to trickle in a tad before that.

I bought my blue X at South Coast in January, 2008. It was the fifth one sold in the country AFAIK. Door panel showed a November 2007 build date.

Because HP has everything to do on a tight road course....
