I Got info on tha new evos!! ok lessee... it sayz itz goin to be called evo viii... itz still got evo vii bodi.. 250 hp allwheel drive...

From what I remember Evos usually came with 280-285BHP as stock, that's what the UK spec one comes with. If you Americans are getting it with just 250BHP then that's one seriously toned down Evo!

The Evo VIII is suppose to have 300BHP-330BHP, looks simlair to the Evo VI styling but it's a coupe... though I could be wrong, has a new 6-speed gearbox (Yes i know you Americans dont like manual transmission), revised 4 wheel drive system and new brakes.

Not ignorance, just dont understand why more Americans use automatic rather then manual.

some people are like windows when driving a manual transmission. so they crash when they use cellphones, eat or drink and etc when driving a m/t (multi-tasking). thus forth the a/t came along and the american citizens got even more lazy.

The Lancer EVO is worth getting if it is around 30k. Know why? Try to find any other import from the dealer that does 0-60mph in under 5 seconds. Also, Rumors say Mitsubishi is tryin to keep the 280 horsepower and not detuning it. And for all you fools that are comparing th EVO with the OZ Rally Edition, have you ever fucking driven a "OZ Rally Edition" Lancer? Well if you have, its no faster than my mom's 4dr 98 Civic LX. So I don't know why ya'll are comparing the prices of the OZ to the EVO. EVO flat out outaccelerates AND outhandles the 350Z.

shuddup about tha rumors and get yourself tha Lancer Evo brochure or booklet or wuhtever itz called from a dealer and read it!! it is detuned and itz 0-60 iz at 6.. well ish still good buh, 350Z's 0-60 is betta.. itz onli got 250 hp.. less than tha Z again.. and Z got betta stylin!! I like tha older models of tha evoz betta..

i read europeancar or scc or some magazine and i saw the picture of the evo that was coming to the states and may i say it looked mighty ricey with the plastic headlight covers and i hated how they got the diamante grill and stuck it on there. crap, ill try to find some pictures.

not so...

the evo VIII will cost about the same as the Z..about 25-30g...however...it is a hell of a lot faster....wit 0-60 under 5 seconds..and quarter mile in the 13's-14's
