The Subaru Impreza has undergone several facelifts already and a new model is in the works but it will be some time before they fire back. So the advantage goes to Mitsu.

The two cars have always been fairly on par with each other, the choice between the two coming down to personal preference as to the feel of the vehicle. Both the new Evo, and the new STi, are going to be excellent pocket rockets. Can't wait to take them for a spin. #17 I sincerely doubt the new Evo will smoke the STi easily.

Awesome car it's better than the toaster on wheels of a car they call the Lancer they are offering now. Current Lancer Evo is a beautiful engine, with ugly sheet metal on the outside. The evos engine is awesome, especially the FQ400 (these models stand for F*ckin quick) which produces 400 hp, which is 200 hp per liter. One of the highest specific output per liter for an engine in a road car. Anyways awesome concept, just make the production model the same don't change too much on the car I’ll take one in blue please…

The car will debut Fall '07 in Japan (lets just call this October for our purposes). This puts it's debut SIX months after hitting the roads in the US. So am I reading it right that we could see this car on the roads here in the states as early as April? This is certainly interesting to say the least. I wasn't expecting the car to hit the US until August/september at the earliest. -Adam So…let me see if I read this right…

It would be a competitive car if the price is right. Most of Mitsu's current line-up have ridiculous MSRPs. How can you sell your cars if your MSRPs are higher than Honda and Toyota?
