<< In the U.S., we had the Lancer this year. Next year, Airtrek and Lancer Evolution. And then in fiscal 2003, there will be three models. >>

It should come in under 24k. :)

The pricing should be the same as the WRX.

They always detune them until they are crap before they send them over here anyways. Look at the WRX, crap. This will be crap as well.

Ok, it may not be as potent as the Japanese version, but it's not crap, sorry buddy.

It's real easy to mod a detuned version. Just change the exhaust system and re-map the computer and you have the Japanese version :)
