Mitsubishi will launch a more powerful version of the Evo X with new MR (Mitsubishi Racing) designation.

Subaru, meanwhile, will add a lighter and more hardcore version of the WRX STI dubbed the Spec C.

Sorry, but the Subbie still looks like a stubby Lexus RX350 to me.

You have never seen the Subie in person then. Looking at cars on the internet doesn't qualify as seeing them first hand.

As a Subie owner, I'll tell you that quirky looks are part of the package. I personally embrace this.

The US has already seen a MR version of the past evolution. The spec version of the STI has been around in other markets based on the previous model(s), just not legally in the US.
