Maybe in 120 years but not 20. We will have some alternate fuels like Ethanol and perhaps fuel cells but thats about it. The combustion engine will be around for many years to come.

Father of all rally, that is harder, however since rally has been around long before the EVO, I don't see how any EVO could get this title. Some noteworthy examples would be the old ford Escort or perhaps the old Lancia.

in 20 years i think the Evo will still be remembered as one of the most affordable and capable sports sedans. unless honda and nissan and toyota and mazda start to make sports sedans as well...i believe the Evo will always be the signature bang-for-the-buck-race-car that can sit 5 people comfortably.

that is if the STi never catches up and surpasses the Evo

i doubt we will run out of fossil fuels, i recall hearing canada just found a new place full of it. and also read up on other locations. i think it will be hard to run out. but as for my car. i plan on keeping it for some time. after its done payed off. i plan on getting maybe a truck or something and messing with that but the evo will remain in my driveway modded the **** out and looking as clean and sharp as can be.

True..there should be enough for awhile. And it may not even be "fossil" fuels, some research indicates it could be slowly replenishing from deeper within the earth and have nothing to do with the dead. But of course if it was true, we are still probably using it too fast for this process to be worthwhile to us.

Once a lot of cars begin to run on E85 and we only need a little bit of oil to mass produce fuel it will be all good.

I'd like to have my Evo in 20 years, modded to hell, driven to hell and back, and still kickin. It will make a fantastic weekend track car for many years to come once its paid off.

Or maybe the Rally Monte Carlo winners in the mid 60's. The Mini Cooper's.
