Las Vegas Mitsu Meeting NEWS
#31
Ok GPTourer, what info do you know? You said you were dropping off you GM but you haven't told us anything. You seem to think ALOT of us will be dissapointed while WIdealer seems to think the majority of us WON'T be dissapointed. All of you were quick to give us info from your "sources" before the dealer meeting but now none of you will give us the info you know straight from ?

Figure of speech.

and Endeavor, the two SUV's. They showed the future Galant, Eclipse and Diamante and the pick-up. The EVO they showed was yellow, and was probably just a VII with the new front end stuck on (I'm guessing), and no specs were given out, other then the 255+, under 30K bit. The under 20K "Baby EVO" or OZ probably won't be a turbo, and is probably FWD. Not sure.

Okay so what, some people won't wait big deal, I still think they'll(we'll) sell everyone of them that we can get our hands on, regardless of who buys what between now and then, and I don't think posting specs before a car is finalized is a good idea, and they are obviously still working on it. I also think that some people just like to ***** no matter what, and no I'm not singling any of you out, and no matter how good the car is, if it is one iota less then the Eurospec car, or one penny more then they think it is supposed to be, then Mitsu will have failed in their eyes.

GPTourer, is the 255+ a promise by mitsubishi at the meeting? They claimed over 250hp before. It's still targeted for sale during Dec-Jan? I see your point but it'll be nice if they told us if they are going to use a 6-speed or 5-speed. Are they going to call it an evo8 with the new bumper? Did your GM notice if the intercooler was maintained around the same size?

Sun and Sound Package? or DE?

Nothing about transmissions. He did see the intercooler in its FMIC glory, but he didn't get close enough to it to break out his tape measure.

The range.
I think the way he worded it was around 260
Still pretty nebulous, but it is coming.

y informed opinion on this is that they are just going to call it "Evolution", no number. It wouldn't make sense to potential
I really don't know if evo's are OBDII but i hope the car is easy to tune so nothing matters. I'm glad to hear 255+ . That sounds like the untouched JDM engine with U.S. emissions cork.
By the way did you get a chance to see if they have red brembos as promised? Seats and etc are secondary compared to the FMIC space and engine. I really hope that what they said about changing only the things that pass us regulation is true. And everythign intacked is promised.
Thanks for the info and keep us updated.
