Should I wait until March/April to buy an '06 RS or get an '05 RS now? Confusing.

so i think after 3 years the american version evo will finally be fully equip as the other versions around the world to boost sale and compete with rival competition

since you dont have an evo now

it's only 3-6 month wait if your current car doesn't have major problems then drive it until the 9 is released

If the yellow Evo above is suppose to be the IX then I'm glad Mitsu ditched the ugly forked nose. I still think the VII had the best front appearance.

Is it me or does the opening for the i/c look smaller?
The manafold in that picture looks like it would perform better than the current oem one.

yes the opening for the IC is smaller. they made the supporting column bigger to stick bunch of holes in there.

Now the teeth effect of the IC is gone. Stupid design...

the middle bumper 2 openings are recessed now with boring lines and the side flairs gone for better aerodynamics...

The front bar where the mitsu emblem is now gone on that picture....

completely ugly.

Man, a evo wagon? What next, evo SUV? EVO truck? EVO bus?

I agree. An Evo wagon would be cool. Right after an Evo Pajero and a BadMoFo Wallet.

Have the projected prices been disclosed yet? I'm think everything will get a bump in price comparable to the MR considering the new performance goodies.

arent the rims on the "evo wagon" those of a wrx? Which makes me think they photochopped the wrx wagon into the evo...i dont know. This could all just be blasphemy.
