HKS: CZ200S (based on Mitsubishi Lancer EVO X) news
 
Press release...


After establishing countless track records with the HKS CT230R Circuit Time Attack Evo, HKS is proud to announce its successor; The HKS Lancer Evolution X, CZ200S.

The CZ200S will be the basis in which HKS will develop its complete parts line-up for the Lancer Evolution X. Much like the development of products available for the previous generations of the Lancer Evolutions, the CZ200S utilizes currently available off-the-shelf and prototype HKS products. HKS prides itself in its engineering, motorsports development and manufacturing quality assuring customers that the same products that HKS sets records with are the same off-the-shelf products that a customer can expect from HKS.

Working in conjunction with the Yokohama Tire Company, HKS plans on lap times under 1 minute at the famed Tsukuba Circuit. During initial testing of the new Advan Neova AD08 radial tires, the CZ200S posted a best lap time of 59.495 seconds at Tsukuba Circuit.

Looks very nice but the engine bay looks like shit. TSX engine bays are way cleaner than that. And yay to canards.

I agree, but it seems like its all about function and access.

Sure what you say is true, but the TSX is about luxury first, then sport (maybe if that) whereas the Lancer is all about sport (period) for a reasonable price. I'm sure if they made the engine bay a little nicer, it would have affected the price a little bit. :shrug: Or perhaps they have engine covers and the such roadmapped into future versions. :shrug:
