Isn’t the chassis supposed to be the same / based off of the Dodge Caliber? I’m more inclined to believe what I’ve heard about it being a direct injected 2.4 with the MIVEC head.

[/quote]

this is accurate to what car & driver or some other magazines early article about the evo X said… however it was from a few months back so I am unsure if they had full info yet

hahahahaha, the mechanic in the trunk would be a stellar idea, probably one of the best from mitsu to date ! Makes sense, new platform, likely to be even less reliable than the typical 4G63 🙂
