#24 of 80 Lost Character by volos Apr 28, 2007 (3:02 pm)
I have to admit, the design changes from the Concept X body to the Prototype X (and very likely, the actual production Evolution X) have disappointed me. I really liked the very aggressive head lamp treatment, and the crisp body line that was maintained down the side of the car with the circular wheel arches. The intact body line especially reminded me of the BMW M3.   The current head lamp treatment (that is to say, the shape of the body around the lamps, not the lost LED's) has cost the car some of its character in my opinion. And the boxier wheel arches have interrupted that line. The greenhouse also has a new shape, I'm supposing to give the rear seat occupants some actual headroom. It seems to me that Mitsu transfused the BMW genes with Evo 9 genes, and they haven't done themselves any favors.   Its not a bad looking car now, but its lost alot of the magic to me. The Concept X actually managed to replace my computer's GM backgrounds for a month, as I seriously considered the possibility of buying a Japanese car when it was released. I don't think thats a possibility anymore. Replies to this message: rcpax (Apr 28, 2007 10:58 pm)

Replying to: volos (Apr 28, 2007 3:02 pm) To me it has not lost any of it's magic, and I always bought Japanese, so yes I will buy this car if I had the money, but that would be after I'm done with my current Outlander loan. So in 5 years I'd be looking at either a 12 or 13th encarnation of the Evo. And talking about GM, I don't see anything on their lineup that would make switch wallpapers. But that's just me and my 2 cents worth.   And may I ask what are you considering instead if you don't buy the Evo?

Replying to: byronwalter (Jan 12, 2007 4:46 am) It's actualy 4G63T engine in the Evo, EG6 is an early 90's Civic, popular with the ricer crowd, and with the potential to actualy perform if properly modifed. The Evo X will sport the 4B11 engine which will sport an aluminium block. Actualy the block is a Gema block also used by Chrysler and Hyundai. But the rest of the engine will be designed and tuned by Mitsubshi. The 4B11T is reputed to be roughly 50 lbs lighter than the engine it replaces. Rumored power is between 300~329 BHP and roughly 300~325 lbft, The most recent rumored spec's i saw were 300 bhp and 325 lbft of torque.   I love the idea of a DSG, but traffic is a real issue where I live now, it commonly takes 35~50 minutes to commute 6 miles to work.   My real concern is weight, The new Subie is actualy going to loose 50 lbs, but carry over an unchanged powertrain. The Evo may end up as fat as 3500 lbs. I however still rember that Mitsubshi said early on that they were making far more extensive use of aluminium on the Evo X than ever before, I was shocked by how much of a weight gain the new lancer got over the stock car, and I realy hope that Mitsu keeps the weight down this time.
