Evo X

[stew-S160]

erm, bit bloody big aint it. there is an FQ300 in my works car park, i almost ignored it totally as it just blended in with the vans and estate cars...

not as striking as i thought it would be by a long shot.

Saw one on the road today, ugggggly!
The owner of cost cutters next door to me test drove one, after selling his evo 8. Said he liked the semi auto gearbox, but felt it was a bit watered down. Too aimed at the Audi owner market he said, as opposed to the evo owner market.

I drive a evo4 and its 350bhp. when we had a meet i went in the evo x,it was so slow very slow,it handled very well OK amazing. but it needs at least 400bhp, it is almost as heavy as a 300zx.I caned it in a race. and im not joking a evo4 kicking the sh**t out of the X,mitsubishi have lost there way big time.

hmmm modded 350bhp Evo4 vs stock EvoX....enlightening comparison.

Well you think about the weight alone the x is over 1500+kg. Its a boat.My car is about about 1320kg.Give the evo x 400bhp and it would eat me alive.you cant even hear it when its flat out. It look like the volvo C30.
I thought it was going to been so good

Try 1600 and you'll be closer - the non-SST Evo X was weighed in at 1620 by NZ Autocar, compared with the new STI hatch at 1485 iirc.

the evo x is one ugly ugly thing
I guess mitsubishi saw Subaru's latest impreza effort and said... "we have to start to make equally ugly cars".... hahahaha
