The C-Class is a horrible car for the money. Cheap interior materials, weak under-performing engine.

Mitsubishi has lost 98% of the Boy-Racer cool factor of the Evo with the X, they tried to make it a more Grown-up car by making the looks less extreme, made it SLOWER than the last model, and then make it 5K more expensive than the last model making it too expensive for over half the people in the market for a car like this.

Wow! Still a great value! $32K (NOT $39K FOR THE BASE MODEL) for an EVO is very close to the last gen, but far better looking, more refined and just as exciting...

I agree w/ S4. Its really not that much of a price jump. A loaded 2006 MR will run you $38k. Therefore, with the new transmission and much nicer interior, its really right on par.

I'm with you most of the time, but not this time, S4. First time for everything. But I'm still with you, Fastonekiller.

I don't fully understand the new Evo and STi pricing strategy this time around. The only thing that I can attribute the over-pricings (in my humble opinion) to is the downward windfall of the dollar vs the yen.

i think the sti tried harder than the evo on growing up, evo x is less rewarding to drive than the older ones, is like for people who dunno how to drive, sti is the same with computers, but it has the sound of a sports car not a ps3 video game.
