PICS: Road & Track October, EVO VIII and WRX S202 STi
Here are some pics from the mag, I took them with a camera because I have no scanner, so if you don't like the angle, TOUGH LUCK, it was the only way to eliminate flash glare.
Oh yeah and because Im limited to 100k attachments, the text might be just a BIT hard to read with mega-jpeg-compression... good luck!

All I have to say about this pic is.. WHOLLEY **** THOSE LIGHT COVERS ARE UGLY. Oh and so is the grille. My god.. what are they doing. Oh yeah I particularly like the first sentence of the article above: "Here is the first unofficial image of Mitsubishi's upcoming Lancer Evolution VIII" HUH!??? THAT MEANS NOTHING!!!! I CAN HAND DRAW AN UNOFFICIAL IMAGE... man.. anyway..

One other disturbing piece of information in the article was this:
"The Evo VIII (the official name has yet to be decided) will continue with...."
Uhhmmm... official name? Uhhhhhhh.... Please.. don't tell me they are going to come up with some PANZY *** NAME for the US... maybe they dont want to offend christian zealots!!!

Ok. That is NOT an accurate picture. I think we've all seen..or should have seen the real pics of the Evo VIII by now. It doesn't have those headlights...the only thing similar is the grill where the Mitsu emblem is.
Keep in mind that magazines are a good month behind....
They say around 28k...I did hear a few months ago from someone that the goal for price was around 28,600.
All the other things they mention...we've been talking about for awhile.

I'd also like to point out that later on in the same mag, they have a feature on cars destined for 2003, yes the EVO VIII is in there, and get this, they state the following:
"It's coming, with upward of 270 bhp, all-wheel drive, 17-in. wheels, sport seats and four doors. The Lancer Evolution VIII is a $30,000 rocket ship..."
Uhhmmm..... 20 pages ago you said 275 bhp and $28,000... WHO IS YOUR EDITOR!?!??!?! SHOOT HIM NOW!

Gotta backup bfdd...the black Evo concept has been around for a while. Probably one of the earlier shots we saw a while back, following the gold hand drawn picture.

Hooby
P.S. - I don't think EITHER of these pictures are very accurate.
