Ok guys, I know there's a few of you with the new Lancers running around in here.
It would be great if you guys posted some pics of your ride in the gallery. I've only seen the '07s and earlier in there, but not the '08s.
The '08s have a new look and I'm sure you guys wouldn't mind some of us to gawk over them right?

Now that's what I'm talkin' about. Thank you.
The new look is just badass, IMO.
I saw one the other day and I had to do a double take and almost curbed my rear passenger wheels doing it while making a right turn, lol.

I'm holding out for the Evo X.
But I might get the GTS model and eventually do a conversion just b/c its $22,000 less than the X will be

Don't wait..The prototype X is going to be so expensive. over $40k when they first drop!! Just get the ES and Drop a old Evo engine in it. you'll save $18,000. everything else is the same.....it's not like your getting a diffenrent looking car!!

This was taken from a website. I was in Las Vegas 2 weeks ago and I saw this driving past me. He slowed down next to me and gave me a thumbs up
. After that, he just took off like nobody's business and that gave me a f!@#@$%^& semi!!!lol. I did notice the fmic as he pulled up and the dealer michigan plates.

First off, I was informed it would start aroun 33-34.
Second, I could easily afford it.

Sorry, it's hard to tell whether or not that car is a X, lol. What are these guys thinking when they cover it up like that? Do they think that we're really dumb, lol.

I highly doubt mitsu will raise the price of the evo for the X, it'll most likelly go for what the 9 goes now. No matter how much stuff you drop into a car to make it "evo-ish" it will never be one. There are many things on the 10 that are gona make it a trully great car and verry hard to swap into the base lancers, like the SAWD and yaw controls and many other improvements in the drivetrain, plus the chasisis will always be reinforcd with braces and extra spot welds. Although the new Lancer is hot! and is said to be even stiffer than the last gen evo's.
