Not bad, but there's something with that front bumper that doesn't sit well with me.

What were the major parts you had to replace? I still want one, but the wife hates them. Looks good!

If i had a car with a wing like that it would be distracting everytime i had to back up.

I would still get an Evo if I was going to buy a Mitsu over the new ugly Eclipse

yea whats with a black wing? what are they thinking...

nice car but i have heard horror stories about them...

and something about an awd system with a fwd motor set up doesn;t make too much sense.

but nice i would love to own one just for a few months.

its actually black... and it is a stock wing, i just had it painted black....

supposed to be red...and its completely carbon fiber, very light wieght (under 5lb's)

And it serves a purpose because its a functional wing (i didn't have my wing on the car a for a while and i could really feel the difference over 90mph

and i dont know what your talking about demolition... the 4g63 awd system is a very tried and true system...

BTW a bolt on the crank pully broke and they replaced the whole pully and sproket...

i havn't had any problems with my warranty

idk on the earlier ones i head horror stories with the car burning oil like crazy.

not saying the awd is crap just seems more logical to have a system like subies and audis.

Mitsu has been using the 4g63 AWD combo for over 16 years now... not to mention that is there rally set up. I'd say it's pretty tried and true.

Nice evo!

I don't really like it..I wouldn't touch the body so much on an EVO I would concentrate more on boost.

My buddy just picked up an evo yesterday, it used to be a showcar for a local shop but they are closing and wanted to get rid of it, right now it pushes like 340-350, very fun car!
