Just got back from the UK, after a week back in the homeland, read an official article regarding Mitsubishi moving away from the EVO, and the new 2012/2013 models will now be a 300 bhp diesel engine.

 

Whaat? That's crazy. Would suck if true.

 

eff that i dont believe it !!!! ;-( ..atleast disels will get more torque

 

wtf

 

The designs are changing. The WRC is going away from its turbo car attitude. They are making regs regarding several things and making it a bit more economical like everything else on the planet. So, we will look and see what is going on with it when it happens in 2012 or 2013. But I have a feeling the Skoda and other cars like that are going to start taking over.

 

link to said article?

 

The Evo moving to Diesel isn't a secret. There have been rumors about it for quiet some time.

Fast sports cars are dying. The only sports cars that are selling right now are the Camaro and Mustang. Sad

 

This is bad news for me.....

 

that is just tradgic one of the best tuner cars ever

 

I need to get my hands on an EVO before they all die out due to extinction of gasoline powered turbos

 

That sucks but a 300hp stock Diesel might really have some potential in making power. Diesel is so much easier to make power. 600hp and 1200ftlbs awd car sound like a ton of fun to me

Trying to be positive in some way

 

Fixed.

300whp and normally double torque in a high revving diesel (like the R10) is gonna rock. 60psi on pump fuel? Whats not to like about diesels?

 

If it's anything like the R10 I'll take one

 

Look at BANKS and what they do with diesel, they have HUGE trucks running under 10s and have one of if not the fastest top speed street legal diesel truck...

 

also look at the AUDI diesel turbo car they built...killer gas mileage and a ton of power and speed...
