Nice. Seats remind me of the last Ferrari GTO seats, and the dash has a 3 series feel to it. Funny, the GTO also had a suede dash. More upscale in appearance overall...looks heavier though.
Heard it'll finally be sold in Canada, love to finally try one.
Hopefully the wing is a n/c delete.

I'm still not sold on the weird pattern on the seats. They appear to be great seats but the pattern...
Big *** brake pedal.
This is like Christmas for the Ikemeister!! Enjoy it man...

Go Texas Longhorns!
I certainly like it better than the last one. I wonder if the car is more heavy than the last model, as it shares a platform now. The subi is down right ugly in comparison.
I still trust Subi engineering over Mitsu, but this car will hopefully change my opinion of that.

It looks very good, i agree that the twin exhaust has to go. Pretty cool interior. Although the tacho and speedo is a direct ripoff from ferrari, but hey i'll take it in a 33-38k car!
Hey Ike, do you know anything about the turbo/engine in the EvoX? is it similar to last gen's?

Gee, It think it looks bloody Ugly with the Audi-ish front...the mechanicals are probably very sound, but the body is out-dated already IMO.
Makes me appreciate the RX-8's design even more..

I hope they answer my question. I asked whether or not the Evo with DSG would have launch control. I need to know how many n00bs I'm going to be able to pwn.

sounds really interesting and impressive.
I'm a bit worried at the aluminum block though... I'm sure they will be doing whatever it takes to make it very strong and able to handle good boost from the factory... still aluminum is aluminum... it might take away the bullet proof-ness of the 4g63 and cause a decrease in amount of after market boost it can handle... im waiting to see if the tuning potential of the evo platform will take a hit. This goes to the new GT-R too since the VQ engines also have aluminum blocks.
looks pretty good, if they can make it handle like the current evo then they have a winner.

I'm sure the new engine will be quite strong, but I doubt we're talking 4G63 strong. Though that's probably not a concern unless you're wanting 400+ whp.
