I have no intention of getting rid of my IX anytime soon, but if I did buy a new car it wouldn't be a Mitsu. I don't even like the X's and with only hybrid/electric in the future screw Mitsu. GTR is the only new car I really want and I would feel bad gutting it.

This is good news and they pretty much had stopped making an EVO after the IX, they just didnt know. my IX just got a lot more valuable....and I hated anything newer than the IX anyway. A few more years to an R34 GTR and Im all set for a long time.

keep the evo forever of course. but if anything im sticking with the AWD turbo so probably and STI

han Mar 3, 2011 02:57 PM

350z or hopefully the toyota ft86's producing soon

OMFG...no more Evo.....



the posts are getting a wee bit outta control at this point. There are sooooo many threads identical to this........

If you didn't drive an Evo....what would you drive...blah, blah.

Something AWD and hybrid or diesel. Im thinking of maybe a used Grand Cherokee CRD.

Evo aint going anywhere anytime soon, but if it does it would be for a C6 Z06.

Idk that would you buy another Mitsubishi. It's all about the evo for me. Oh well I guess..

4g63evoeight Mar 3, 2011 04:34 PM

don't plan on getting anything else.. but if i did it would be either a
c6z06
996 911tt
anthracite mk4 supra with a single.

sblvro Mar 3, 2011 07:21 PM

ATTENTION MITSUBISHI! if the evo goes away, my choice would be the GTR or the P car! keep the EVO!

it's a simple question for those crying about threads above. I was planning to purchase the xi so I'm seeing what others have seen that can compare to the almighty.

it looks like everyone has their own preferences and nothing solid as far as a poll would go. I know everyone would love to get a hand on a GTR but that isn't realistic for most of us.

so maybe I should have been more realistic.

those who are going to buy their next car in the realm of the evo price base: below 35k

What would be your next car and what can match upto the evo?

I think subbie will take my money though I have looked on nasioc and not impressed at all by the 2011. I hate the bulky nasty lines but love the interior versus the evo.

I am a fan of old school so.

2007 subbie stY
2006 g35
1997 Toyota Supra Limited edition
another 2006 evo MR SE
2005 Lotus Elise

I would be interested in more details for the FT86 - exterior looks sex futuristic (if the production vehicles come out the same way)

The price range of all vehicles above are realistic and yes I have researched each vehicle.

Is there anything interesting coming out that I may have missed?

This is and will be my first and only :mitsu: I own. I love my IX and the new evo's dont really do anything for me. Its fine that Mitsubishi wants to go green but you dont need to do that to your one and only selling car?? Make a new specific car geared toward "green" like all other car company's. Every car company has there performance car and they need that. There are more people out there that will end up buying the sports car then there are greenie weenies out there. Vette, GTR, ISF, LFA, S8, mustang. No offense Mitsu but if you get rid of the Evo you mine as well just leave the states altogether.

As for my next car I will most likely just go back to my roots and buy a Ford. {thumbup}

I don't think I'd buy anything from Mitsubishi in the future after this latest move. First, they void warranties, treating their enthusiasts like a fly on their back, and now they do this? Plain and simple, Mitsubishi obviously doesn't want my business. With all due respect, I'd rather take my money to Subaru.
