lol, everything beat the new evo. The evo does look better from the front, but not so sure about the rear or the side view. Will be interesting to see an MR version going up against the sti and the sti ppp. Please lets hope prodrive follow the mr route and offer a few special models!

2 things.
First, we in Britain will get the FQ models, so will be faster than the Jap models.
Second. People won't point and laugh at you if you're driving a Evo X.

I thought the first ones into this country were going to be 280 Bhp same as Japan. Due to the fact Mitsi doesn`t know how far they can reliably tune the new all Aluminium engine.

The Manuals will be FQ's straight away. Its the automatic box that they testing to see if it can reliably handle the power/Torque.

According to the article in Evo magazine, Japan told Mitsubishi UK that the new Evo couldn't be tuned because of the complex ECU. Mitsubishi have already cracked it and FQ models will be available. Although the FQ360 is set to be £37,995.......Gulp

I am more interested to see what changes they do to the outside of the car, i am still not 100% on the side of the new evo.

I noticed the evo drivers wearing their helmets whilst talking to the camera - Probably too embarrassed to be seen in an Evo
