That right there tells me Mitsu F'd this one up.

If I look at it as a new car all by itself it's pretty cool, but I'm pretty worried they missed the mark as far as what's made the Evo a success in the past. The Evo VII-IX is 250-300lbs heavier then the Evo VI. The X is another 200lbs on top of that. My bet right now is that this car won't be as popular/successful in motorsports which IMO was the Evo's bread and butter, but I guess we'll have to wait for real numbers before getting to excited. Plus there's always hope the RS will be 200lbs lighter.
