hmmm, haven't read this review yet but damn, the website is pretty ballin', the layout for this review is so damn sweet.

I'll just post the first and last paragraphs for you guys though:

There has been a lot said on the Internet about Mitsubishi's new Evolution X, much of it not fit for print in a family-type magazine, and most of it centering around the notion that the new car is heavier, bigger, softer, and therefore not as pure as the outgoing model. At the risk of losing you right here, we'll let you know up front that the new Evo is a better car in every way — including performance — and all the fears about it being too grown up aren't nearly as serious as the keyboard commandos would lead you to believe.

No matter which you choose, Mitsubishi has built a vastly improved Evolution model. Ride, interior materials, handling, power, space, safety and features have all gotten significant upgrades, making this Evolution model the best yet. Now, please argue amongst yourselves.

can you say, hell yeah?

:cool:

Finally!!

Good article.

Nice find!

Much better written then most stuff I see.

I like how the Evo X is more refined but it can frantic when you push it to the limits.

As much as I like the 9, I don't think I can handle the spartan interior so the X would be perfect for me!

Mitsubishi has told us it will be very difficult to tune the TC-SST models because of the transmission's torque limitations.how does the HKS Kansai SST Evo X (http://www.evoxforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1490) do it?

how does the HKS Kansai SST Evo X (http://www.evoxforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1490) do it?

Not difficult enough for HKS i guess?

Maybe I'm pessimistic but someone tell me the point of 4wd if its only going to use three in the turn *refering to article picture* LOL Im just playing I've done worse in the Sentra SE-R I currently drive.

I love their minimalist website design. Mods please adapt their forum layout! =D

Mitsubishi isn't formally announcing it, but there is also a launch control feature in the TC-SST transmission that allows the car to spring hard off the line.
good new 4 everyone who will be getting a SST
