Breaking News!
Take a look at what I found!

Official Lancer Evolution website

Not much there yet except for a flash intro, a few wallpapers, some videos I can't get to work, a contest to win an Evo (I tried to enter but it looked like it didn't work ), and best of all a countdown to the Evo's arrival. 81 days and counting!!! And if the website is correct it looks like the car will officially be called the Lancer Evolution without the VIII designation. Take a look before Mitsubishi decides to take the website down.

P.S. Am I a hacker?

Yeah, and if you look at the rules for the giveaway, it says that the total value of the car, plus destination and prep charges is not to exceed $32,000.

If you let the page load, at the top it shows some evos rallying, then says it will be in America soon....best part though is when it shows the **** of an Evo and it takes off, the sound gives me the chills.....

The rules also say that the contest begins 10/15, which is probably when the site goes active... And it appears that the car will be a 2003 model.

Some people have drugs and booze. RaX has anything Evo related. Interesting site but nothing new. Interesting they show and name the Evo VI and VII, yet they're simply calling it the Evo here. Can't wait for the confusion that's going to cause amongst non-(uber)enthusiasts. *sigh* One thing still worries me, much along the lines of the new Z I saw with chrome dubs: non-enthusiasts...ack.
