Spotted: Mitsubishi Lancer Evo 7 in Mumbai

Was with my parents on Marine drive when I was crossed by the EVO7 yes the Lancer EVO7. I guessed it was a EVO7 and not a 8 buy its grille and its rear lights!!

Ok abt the car..its black has amazing road presence, lights are awesome.. and i dont think they were Xenons. The guy was jus t cruising at around 50 kmph. It was damm good. Well frankly...its as aggressive as that Impreza WRX Sti. Its hard for me to decided which i like better!
But the taste of people in India is just getting better and better!!

*Stratos, it doesnt matter what cam u got. Just carry it and shot the car. My previous cam was quite a bad cam, but used to serve a part of its purpose. Paid all of 5k for that crap. It doesnt matter if the pics come bad. Atleast we can get a glimpse of the car (before it moves out to Bangalore or someother place)

Anyways talking abt the Evo, was it an EVO or was it just the normal Evo-7 look Lancer? Cos i guess the EVO-VII has Xenons. Or it cud be possible that the Xenons were off when u seen it.

I doubt anyone would import a non-evo lancer here! Or is it called the Charisma now? its a pretty ordinary car without the Evo tuning!

Good to know the STi's have competition though!

I was just going to ask you guys if theres any REAL evo in the city or perhaps in India. Those who can afford do keep getting all the cool cars but I don't think I've ever heard of anyone get a real Evo. All the evo-ish cars ive seen are definitely kits on the locals.

So does anyone in the city have a real evo? I'd like to pay a visit

<-- drool

Its not possible to put a EVO7 kit on a Lancer....as the design is totallllllyyyy different!! Secondly the EVO i saw was longer than the EVO6 which i have seen in reality!!!

So the LANCER Evo 7 in the city it original.. and nothing can challenege that!!

Aalaap,

Kunal Kapoors white evo 6 has been spotted with pictures. The thread is in this forum itself, so look around. I have personally seen that car. Its the sort that will make a man do anything to own it.
