Sweet!. I saw a Lancer the other day, it was pretty nice looking.
I'm sure it was just a lancer (114 hp ), not the Evo VII (276 hp AWD ), because the Evo has not even gone on sale here in the US.

Yea, the car I saw was just a Lancer, but I had never seen one in person and it caught my eye.

That is a real EVO VII, not a POS 120 hp Lancer converted to look like a EVO. It looks WAY different than the POS Lancer they sell here in the US. I got the scoop on it, the guy bought it, had it imported from the UK to use as a rally car. Don't ask me, that's just what I was told.

I heard it should hit the shores in October, and Mitsubishi said it will be under $30k.

isaw the yellowone at the LA AutoShow. I wouldnt leave the booth for about 20 mins. I talked to the mitsubishi dealer here in LA and he said if i put 4000 down right then, he'll make sure I get one. Most people have put money down already to get on the waiting list.
