Cool, but I prefer the styling of the evoVI. The VII looks too tall and has no aggressive, bulging fenders.

Then they have ones that have bulging agressive looks like the WRX with all types of dips and circles and stuff here and there - the result? Some love it and some just hate the look.

Sigh... yup... Honda's gonna get their *** kicked next year. Unless...

Anyways, that's a kick *** car... and the price is good for it's power. This car should easily woop a stock WRX.

For a few thousand more, you could have an s2000...

But I'm glad to know Mitsubishi is gonna play the game with more than their ugly *** Eclipse. I hate that car more and more every day. I hope they kill the Eclipse after 2004... or give it a serious make over.

Yeah it is fast. Demand will be very high for these cars so the best thing to do is to start reserving one now if you really want it and can afford it.

I was under the impression that the EVO7 would hover right around the 29-32,000 dollar range, and that the US Spec WRX STi will have competitive horsepower and torque for about the same price as the evo7... hovering right around the 30,000 dollar range. 35 is awful high for that car. You can buy a WRX for just under 25, and 5000 in parts will have you pushing 300 horse... why pay the money for the evo7?

I'd love to have an evo7, but if I have to pay 35G's, I'll get a WRX and crank up the juice on it.

It may be fast, but it is ugly. At least my car looks good and will go fast one day!

This upcoming year is going to see some sweet and affordable cars. Especially for the mod-freaks that we are.
