Are they selling it under the SEAT nameplate, or VW's? Mitsubishi is also going to enter the Mexican market, so you may soon be able to buy an Evo

Na, it has the Seat name plate , whats cool about this cars it that it could smoke any other car i tis price range, even TT's ($34k to $49k), Stangs ($27k to $30k), and Boxsters ($64k to $67k) , there are other cool cars, that you don't get in US, like the .....Clio RS , Peugeot 406 Coupe , Audi S3

the only thing is that they are really high priced,even if most of the are made here, my 2002 EX cost a total of 21k with taxes and insurance......

as far as fot Mitsubishi the plans are tho brin the normal Lancer, The Montero and Maybe the Eclipse, just like toyota theyre not bringing the cool cars like the MR2, the celica or the matrix

it looks nice from pictures, but those cars are acutally pretty big in size...thier not a tiny hatchback. ive seen a picture of one beside a porsche and it looks about the size of a matrix...maybe a bit smaller. its size would probably fall between that of a protege5 and a matrix.

yeah thats how it's spelld, and the size ain't that big, it uses the universal VW plaform found on GTi's, Jettas, A3, S3, Seat Leon, Seat Toledo, and some Skodas..... so it's about the same size as a GTi
