Default Evo X

A Japanese magazine finally drove one and confirmed some things that were only rumored.Power will jump to 320 hp/ 325 tq and it does feature that dual clutch DSG styled tranny. 0-60 was 4.4 seconds, didnt run the quarter but its expected to be high 12s. Mistubishi is determined to sell this for right around what the outgoing 9s are selling for which is about $35k here in the US. Of course they were raving about the new AWD features and upgrades, dont know how it could handle much better than the previous versions but apparently it does.

Man, I got to get one to go with my Mustang. The feel of that AWD turbo'd 4 banger is a different one than the RWD V8 but just as fun. We'll see what Subaru is up to with the new STI, it better be good.

I can't wait to take the new EVO X out for a spin, the EVO 9 was awesome. The two I test drove were fantastic cars. Great build quality, good acceleration, superb handling,comfortable, etc... The only thing I really didn't like was the fact that it was still a 4cyl and it had 4drs. Other than that, I could see myself owning one someday.

I used to hate 4 door sports cars but now that i've owned one and seen how practical they are I love the 2 extra doors.

Yea, I dont look at the cylinder count, I look at performance numbers and how it drives. If it does indeed run high 12s stock, that will be better than or right there with alot of V8s anyways. 4 doors are great I think, still have room for **** when I need to travel haha

I think the EVO X looks pretty good in black.
