Comments on: Mitsubishi’s newest Evo getting drivers out of fancier wheels http://www.leftlanenews.com/mitsubishis-newest-evo-getting-drivers-out-of-fancier-wheels.html Car news, reviews, and specs for the auto-industry Sun, 8 Nov 2009 19:04:35 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: Z06ified http://www.leftlanenews.com/mitsubishis-newest-evo-getting-drivers-out-of-fancier-wheels.html/comment-page-1#comment-392664 Z06ified Wed, 02 Jul 2008 14:22:01 +0000 http://www.leftlanenews.com/?p=7924#comment-392664 Yeah, this is also a function of the crappy economy. People who are in debt up to their eyeballs driving cars they couldn't really afford in the first place, are trading down to cheaper cars like the Evo. Many of the fancy cars people were driving were financed by 2nd and 3rd mortgages on their over valued homes. Now that the artificial wealth is gone, its back to souped up econoboxes like the Lancer Evo. These people aren't the sharpest tools in the shed. Yeah, this is also a function of the crappy economy.

That Ferrari guy was obviously in bankrupt.
I mean,
-”Hello Car-salesman, I was wondering if you accept my F430 and I would want to get that super-makesmemast*rbate-Japanese-F430ownsit-30k-car?
-Sil, ale you alllight?

I don’t think so, I mean nobody sells a Ferrari and gets an EVO, they can get an EVO AND the Ferrari, but no sell a Ferrari to take an Air-Conditioner brand car.

But if you search the web enough, a person in either a high end WRX STI (mighat have been a spec c) outran a Ferarri. He tried to catch up with him but the WRX pulled away. Suffice to say that ruined his day. Why they had to **** up the front end grill on the new model is beyond me.

The EVO is a bad ass car. My only gripes about the EVO X, is that 1) (as with all other cars) it got way more expensive... 39k U.S.D for a MR? No thank you. I'd get the GSR and call it a day personally. and 2) The EVO IX performed better then the EVO X, probably due to the EVO X being larger, and heavier. So that would make me want the IX for that reason... Haha that’s awesome! The EVO is a bad ass car.
