Woooo. 2004 Charger R/T will own us all. As for the Neon: "booo". I respect the EVO's speed, but I'm not a fan of the look. If I had to choose between the EVO and the STi, I'd take the STi, but I'm not really a fan of the looks of that either.

 

with the specs of both the Sti and EVO, they could say IM A GAY HOMOSEXUAL WHO LIKES LITTLE BOYS right on the side in big pink bubble letters and id STILL drive that either with the biggest smile on my face.

 

found out that there will only be 5000 evo's shipped to tha u.s. by my calculation thats probably like one for each dealership.....is it true?

 

5000 mitsubishi dealerships in the US? I doubt it. Even if there were 5000, they send them to those dealerships that sold the most lancers or have the most orders for them already.

 

I hear that, definately nice cars.
About the 5000 cars produced, I dont know what mitsu's plan is, but if you remember Subaru's goal was to only sell 6000 WRX's this past year. They far exceeded that goal by selling over 18000 of them, which is partly my guess as to why subaru is willing to go all out here with the STi. I think mitsu is just trying to cover their asses by starting production small, and not giving it the all out punch it should have. I think however all 5000 will very quickly sell and then Mitsu will step up to the plate and begin playing some hardball with subaru, a little competition never hurt anyone.

Anyone have any specs on the new GTO coming out? What's brewing in the domestic world? They seem to be pretty skimpy for good cars these days while the imports are growing exponentially. Hope they can do more than just accelerate these days...

 

New GTO will have the Chevy LS1 5.7 litre vette engine in it.

 

Dodge has a lot of cool concepts coming into realities. The Charger R/T, Viper Powered Ram (Ram SRT-10), Supercharged Hemi Wagon.

Ford has made the 2005 Cobra the ugliest car ever and the GTO is coming over here.
