Concept EVO X
 
At first i thought this was Galant VR 4 . i really do see the lancer it, but looks pretty cool.

That car would look really great without the wing. Can anyone PS that wing out of the 2nd pic?

yah i agree with you on that one, i think the best evo's where from 94-97 sytle wise.

Ike 04-06-2006 02:40 PM

Maybe next time bump one of the 5 threads already discussing this car, most of those threads have the same pics from last years as well...

bascho 04-06-2006 02:46 PM

Nice job Mugatu.....looks much better without the wing IMO. I still don't think I would ever get one though.....reminds me of an Acura TL.

Asmoran 04-06-2006 02:49 PM

I want the hatchback version (which probably won't be made :( )

rx8wannahave 04-06-2006 03:27 PM

Yes, this is a major repost but I'll say it again...

Finally, the looks match the performance. I think it looks WAY better...I would consider it big time, without the cartoon tail of course.

The new Camaro and this concept EVO…are very nice future options….hmmmmmm

RENESIS_NEENJA 04-06-2006 04:42 PM

I think this car is freaking SEXY!! I really hope it makes it to market looking like this..

Moostafa29 04-06-2006 07:54 PM

Car would be great without the wing. Nice photoshop. I can't wait to see the final engine specs.

Rootski 04-06-2006 07:59 PM

Finally, an Evo that doesn't look like hell.

zaglo6204 04-06-2006 08:03 PM

i like it. first time i saw it, which was quite a while ago, i thought the lines reminded me of a galant... still do. but only... better

Japan8 04-06-2006 09:56 PM

If the price is right and the looks VERY close to the concept pics... this would make a great next car (they'd better offer a MT option and not just SMG/DSG though).

Steiner 04-06-2006 10:40 PM

I wonder what it will cost?

Ike 04-06-2006 10:54 PM

If it ends up coming to market below 35k with any sort of options I'll be shocked.

fenderlover 04-06-2006 10:56 PM

i'm sorry but that look like crap. i wanted a evo for a while but decided i'd go with the sexier 8 after learning more about the evo and how fast it was i accepted it's current uglyness for inner beauty. but this new one look like s-h-i-t-e

Japan8 04-06-2006 11:10 PM

^ everyone seems to disagree with your OPINION...

Steiner 04-06-2006 11:14 PM

To each his own I guess. You can buy my VIII when the X comes out, OK? :)

The only thing I'm worried about are the 1st year bugs...new engine, new platform, new tranny, etc, etc. Just look at the '03 USDM VIII (which is basically just an '02 JDM VII) and all the little annoying problems lots of the owners are having. If the interior is improved, the curb weight stays the same, the power is improved and they (more or less) stick to the prototype X then I'm OK with spending $35k on an Evolution X. In fact I would say it's very likely right now. I just hope the Japs iron out the bugs in the earlier JDM release before it comes to our shores.

FlyingLeggs 04-06-2006 11:18 PM

Possibly the best performing and looking sedan (unless the 8 is really a sedan!) under 35k. It's a future option for me. W/o the spoiler it looks like a pissed off Acura TL. I like it.

saturn 04-06-2006 11:30 PM

I do like this, but it just doesn't feel like the Evo anymore. I dunno, it's just becoming more like the Galant than the Lancer. Pictures are kinda hard to judge though, and concept pics are even harder to go by, but this thing just looks like a bloated Acura. Absolutely not my cup of tea. Though, it'll probably grow on me, just as the 8 did.

I'm with you, if it outperforms the current Evo I'll love it. Something tells me it's going to be watered down and compromised by heavy design features, time will tell... If they try to make the majority happy rather than the minority this car will be a huge disappointment for me and I'll be looking elsewhere for a new car.
