Concept-X:

As expected, very reminiscent of the recent Sportback concept.

 

Also, here are some shots of a test mule:

I like the concept.

 

Well, I have to say it certainly looks better than the current shopping cart wing-equipped homely econobox.

 

That's disgusting. Why the obsession with aircraft spoilers? Was it a contest to see how many openings/scoops they could fit on the front of the vehicle?

 

Because the car has no downforce to speak of without it. I have read comparison between the wingless Evo RS and the normal Evo about how the tail of the vehicle starts to feel floaty during triple digit speeds. What does it matter anyway? The whole car is pretty plain. The Evos don't get much of their personality from their looks anyways.

 

I like it.

 

I saw that concept pic many months ago...The EVO 9 looks so much better, that thing is really ugly

 

I like it. Looks pretty badass for what it is.

 

damn thats ugly. Theyre nice cars performance wise, but they sure are ugly as hell.

 

It looks pretty good, and fast to go with it.

 

Wow,this is a polarizing car. For the record, I love it.

 

Tuner wheels (color center caps/lugs)
Shopping Cart wing
Gas cap
Grille (or whatever that thing is)
Swiss cheese hood

If all those things change by production, it might not be half bad. I'd highly consider this car if it doesn't really look anything like those pictures.

 

There are ways of creating down force without a wing that size. It looks like that to stand apart from the standard Lancer and draw attention to an otherwise plain car. That's the real and only purpose of the wing. Any down force it may generate is purely a secondary benefit.

 

Well, it works. This car is nice and stable, even above 150mph. Its designed to be as high and far back as practically possible to reach the best air and is made of C/F to make it stiff enough to push down instead of just bouncing up and down. The many front vents go to an intercooler, oil cooler, radiator (duh), brake vents, and a heat extractor for the turbo. The look is over the top, but its all also very purposeful.
