Has anybody heard anything about these cars? Considering it as being my next car. Does anybody know how much the Evo X is going to sell for when it comes out? 35,000? 40,000? Also considering this car as well.

i got to drive an 08 evo. really nice car actually... its really fast but you don't really feel the speed. it has a ton of luxury features too. but mitsubishi is not really my brand of choice. i wish that toyota would manufacture a sports car... but i digress, for it shall be far too long before they do.

When did you get to crive the 08 Evo!?!?! Mitsu has been really tight lipped about the new Evo, only releasing final produciton photos last month. Did you ride in the test mule they have running around So Cal?? Canyou give us any more detail??? there isnt much known about the new Evo. What we do know is that the Evo will be the same dimensions as the new Lancer, but 3 inches wider. It will have the new 4b11t aluminum block, open deck engine with MIVEC which has an 86mm by 86mm bore. Some speculate this means the 4b11 will need less boost to produce more power by using a much higher reving engine. Power numbers in all trade magazines are in the range of 300-320 hp. The turbo will be near the firewall, improving heat isolation and flow. The new Evo will have SAWC with AYC (active yaw control) for the first time in the US. Specluation on weight seems to be 3200 to 3500 lbs. Price speculation is around $35,000 to $40,000. Mitsu expect to debut at the Frankfurt Auto Show in October so as not to be overshadowed byt the GTR during the Tokyo Auto Show. I think we have all seen the production photos, if not: edit: I forgot to mention, The new Evo will be offered with a 5 speed manual or a dual clutch paddle shift manual similar to the VWs DSG.
