Suspension makes popping noise but it will be fixed soon under warranty. Sunroof creaks. window whistlest above 80mph. Clutch is weak. 2nd and 5th gear synchros don't perform well, often resulting in grinding. paint is chipped to bare metal in some places, no optional mud guards available from mitsubishi. Accelerates quickly, handles well. Rough ride but that's to be expected. Fun car, but mine needs debugging and a better clutch.

The car performs like the better and more expensive cars, but its dependability is atrocious. The breaks dont wear evenly, so when you break at higher speeds the wheel vibrates uncontrollably. Mitsubishi will not warranty that. The interior of the car is made so cheap that 6 months after I got the car, the noise coming from all the panels is unbearable. No Warranty on that either. After 15,000 miles the transmission is giving out. Guess what? Not under warranty. BTW, I am not racing or doing anything crazy that would warrant all these problems. It's a cheap car that becomes very expensive, very fast! Save your money. Dont get this car.
EVO8...raw & edgy

Most responsive car I've ever driven (had my share of very fast cars). Most familiar with BMW's & older muscle cars,but also have experience(s) with Audi,Acura,Infiniti,Lexus & Porsche. The EVO is not in the same league as far as luxury,comfort,features,"image" as these brands,but from a performance/ "bang-for-your-buck" perspective,this car can't be beat!Plus it's one of the most tuner friendly vehicles I've ever come across(reminds me of my previous 3.8L GN turbo small block).I have no regrets with with my purchase... already on the list for the new EVO MR coming in Sept. To summarize:this car is very quick/precise with "cat-like" reflexes.
good drive bad clutch

this car is fun to drive and has good handeling. The engine is other than the clutch and the flywheel. If they were gona put a car out there with that muck horsepower they need a high performance clutch ot they need to put the clutch on warranty.
