Hey, that DOES look better than the new STi. Hell, it looks way better than the regular Evo sedan, too! No garish rice-racer wing! Nice.

hahaha i gonna say not true!! why is it posted on a gaming site? when you google "Lancer Evolution Sport Hatch" you get this http://www.google.com/search?source=ig&hl=en&rlz=&q=Lancer+Evolution+Sport+Hatch+&btnG=Google+Search

no legit car site's even talk about this car or a production of it. i think it is a good photoshop.

Mitsubishi does plan to return to WRC with a hatchback, so this car is likely the candidate to just do that.

I like the WRX/STi look than this Mitsubishi hatchback though.

I see they borrowed the front end from the GTR.

why does it remind me of the Audi A3 with the rear-end of a Lexus RX?

i keep telling my friend Lance to buy a Lancer... :grin: would be perfect I tell him! alas, he'd rather drive a Lexus or some other 'luxury' sedan, rather than a 'sports car'. I'm sure he wouldn't really like a BMW because of their taut suspension...

they should have just released the wagon version as the evo ix wagon that they came out with or that was supposed to come out last year. oh well though, if i was ever to buy an evo it would definitely no be a evo x wagon.i could make one with parts from the audi a3 as mentioned above, a new gtr, and the rear end of a mazda cx7/cx9 or lexus rx-300/330

All new cars seem to have a "scowl" on their fronts, that represents how angry they are that their designers made them so ugly. I think that the automotive studio designers must've dropped the clay a couple times too many.

I'm sticking with cars made before 2000. Plus I hate airbags. I'd rather have a car or truck with 5 point racing harnesses than thinking about an airbag ready to go off on me.
