Some of us have heard January, others have been told March.

What have you been told the US release date for the Evo X was going to be? How reliable is your source?

My money is on March.

Well if they're late, my district rep is going to get a bat to the head.

That shipment is only going to have GSRs though.

Any idea on how many?

When's the first batch of MRs due?

I have a rally red base model GSR coming and a fully decked out graphite gray GSR with accessory navigation package installed coming.

MR's are due out approximately a month to two months afterward.

What's MSRP on those guys?

MR's are due out approximately a month to two months afterward.Wow, why so much later? Issues with SST?

Not an issue... rather the GSR's are the first to go out, so the factory is tooled and setup (kaizen style) to rapidly finish the GSR orders first and then bang out the MR orders. Remember, 150 countries have orders on hand and Mitsubishi is only using 2 factories to output these cars. This isn't 'Gung Ho'. LoL.

My dealership told me that every dealership will get 2 evo on the first shipment, and the first one will be arriving at the end of dec.

This is for Canada!

I spoke to the GM of the Annapolis dealership. Says his first batch are all GSRs.

Well, FWIW, it will take an extra few days for us east coast guys.

god-dammit! :wallbash: :computermad: I WANT MY EVO NOW!


Those MR's are late due to TC-SST fine tunning according to a motortrend article in this months issue. They reported some lag off the line in all dual clutch versions.

why do i get the feeling these dealers are going to rape me above MSRP.....i mean yea, its legal for them to charge anything they want but 10k over msrp!? thats absurd...:rant:

im just bitter about the last post i guess...50k for an MR? if thats what they wanna charge me for an Evo i'll be on the five-o-clock news in march.:uzi:

Hahaha.

Don't worry, you won't be paying $50K for an MR.
