Ah yes......ignorance.
The EVO VII does not compete with the WRX, it competes both in price and performance to the WRX STi, big difference. Most UK reviews and comparos that I have read prefer the WRX STi over the EVO VII.
And the EVO VII has not been confirmed on making the trip stateside. In fact, the WRX STi has a much better chance of coming here, since the EVO has a Front mounted intercooler, which makes passing US crash tests VERY difficult. WRX STi uses a top mount intercooler. Hence the hood scoop (fully functional, unlike the scoops on Mustangs and celicas)
And one more thing, the EVO VII is not even based on the Lancer chassis anymore, it has moved to the Charisma chassis.
