Well, not always under the hood. Especially considering the added length of a longitudinally mounted v8 versus a transverse mounted I-4. Most likely they had to shift the firewall WAY back, thus shoving the driver further back in the car. No small task.

They look pretty sick but what's an Evo if it doesn't have the 4G63 and AWD.

Anyone notice that it looks like the rear doors are welded shut and smoothed?

Awesome looking cars though, LOVE the wheels

I don't think they are built on the lancer chassis. Looks like a welded tube chassis like those nascar ones to me. The body panels just resemble the Evo ones.
