Test drove Evo MR

Finally a car that gives real driving pleasure!!! My experience was mostly positive. The car asks to be driven hard. Taking corners is pure joy. I really liked the sound of the exhaust. The steering is quite sharp, although not as sharp as bimmer's, but still very close. I would attribute it to the AWD vs RWD. Interior is not that bad, although cheap plastics show especially on the doors. There is no a sunroof option. The trunk is really small. The Recaro seats are barely adjustable, which a significant other I doubt would like... Also, the price is too high, which is in the 335i territory. All and all, I have to give a credit to Mitsubishi

Its a great car. Slightly overpriced, but I'd definately have that over a 135.

I'd love an EVO for a track car so I don't have to abuse my baby

I learned to love AWD with the Audi.

It was very responsive and in super sport mode it keeps revs up, so it's ready to go. Even in the normal mode, I didn't feel any delays in power delivery. The tranny seems to be very satisfying.
