New York Times: Mitsubishi Evolution VIII

I would have never thought the New York Times would ever do a multimedia presentation on the Evo.

http://www.nytimes.com/packages/html...URE/index.html

enjoy.

If you count being profiled as a bunch of illegal modding, street racing, reckless driving morons being positive attention then great....

That body kit would look ok if he was actually pushing power

its not 400 anymore. It's 360whp. It was 400 with the alcohol injection it used to have. 12.3@117. You think the car is rice? Of all the things we've seen on this forum? The whole evo exterior is stock with jdm heads and tails with 5zigen wheels and a cwest bumper. This is a fairly modest car. You couldnt hear the turbo because the cutout was blasting, that thing is so loud the microphone was even popping.

Looked like most evos I've seen, slightly modded. I wouldn't have let all that water in the interior. And 236hp? Maybe to the wheels.
