Singapore Mitsubishi Evolution Club

hi all, i am considering a evo x (pre-owned, brand-new, pi...), can bros share your thoughts on:

1) why evo x?
2) do you still thirst for m3, gtr, porsche in terms of power....
3) whats your avg fuel consumption?
4) what u dislike and dis-satisfy about your evo x?
5) lastly....why evo x?

thks.

simply.. its not about the car its the driver.

cause we are a happy community!

we all know that we are having fun each time we meet up.

the jiao bin, jiao jio, jiao lang.. hahaha

ans

1) I've sat in STI.. CTR.. Evo X. only evo X gives the secured feeling when u attack a corner, stock wise.

2) POWER IS ADDICTIVE!!!! *need i say more?*

3) 9.8km/litre

4) Dislike --> Stupid pillar always blocking my view when im trying to filter at a junction

5) Coz its evo... and i meet pple like jiao lang, jiao bin and jiao jio

for me as a new owner 2 share.....................

1. cos its e infamous evolution series! so tis TEN shd be even more foolproofed, though i love my frd's evo9.

2. 12mths ago, i had wanted 2 buy cooleh's evo 10. then some "bugs" beside me keep telling me bimmer bimmer bimmer..... then fell into infactuation on e 335i, eventually bought e 525i, due 2 omv n other factors considerations. drove for a mth, sadly passed to wifey 2 drive, while go back behind e steering of my euro R............... since then on, i started saving up again, etc............ finally got my EVO X las wk!!!!!!

3. sad 2 say, my consumption SUCKS!!!!!!!!! for e past 3 tanks, avg @ 6.2km/litres. driving patterns r "virign" non-turbine (<3k rpm) 70%, turbine on only 4 overtaking. no showing off of launches unnecessarily. very sad tat it DRINKS more petrol than my alcohol intake every evening...............

4. nothin dislikes! cos 4 e past 7 days, i've tried w CTR, STis, Golf GTis, A5s, 335i, ................ greatest feeling since i've started motorsports 10yrs ago!!!!!! ONLY hate its fuel consumption!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! can someone old birdies help? i'm on injen intakes, n HKS HP exos............. tats all!!!


5. all of e above!!!!!!!!!!!!

bro have u gone for a remap?

GTR is a different class (but trust me, it cannot be a daily drive), M3 is long forgotton and as for Porsche, unless you get a Turbo or a GT3, no way.

The E10 is a car which is meant for performance. (FULLSTOP)

There are not many cars that can beat the price for the performance you can get from an EVO. The M3 does not feel as torquey, put it this way, 300 brake ponys and 300 wheel ponys.

For the price there is nothing close. Even with another 100k more there is nothing close.

"it is the innermost me....falling deeply in love with the outermost you (EVO)"

Weird that no one mentioned the huge turning radius... thats my pet peeve for all Evos.

4) Dislike --> Stupid pillar always blocking my view when im trying to filter at a junction

I Hate this...i hate this....i hate this....

I can never take a confident corner on our congested roads with this.....hope this doesn't affect anything when i go tracking. Haven't brought the car up yet. Anyone can give me some reasurrance.....dun want to slam into something cos its exactly located in my blind spot. will be damn stupid.

Actually there are quite a few cars with bigger pillars....if u ever try filtering in a GTR u will know fear

What were the designers thinking when they create a car with such blind spots.....crazy. Not the back but in the front somemore.

Yup...Like wat LCL says...the turning radius sucks...But everything's cool big time

tks 2 concern. i m going for remap tis sat......... wish me luck!!! tks guys!

Speaking of turning radius, does anyone have problems doing a clean u-turn on the roads here?

No problem.... for those 3 lanes U-turns. Ahhahah

Haha....what about those with only 2 lanes?

Oh forget about those, i'll just drive one big round than to risk & attempt a 2 Lane U turn

For EVOs, two lane is impossible. Unless you turn from the 2nd lane when traffic is all clear at your side.

I see...initially thought that only the X will have this problem...so the same applies to the previous generations of EVOs as well...

U r right. Owned the E8 prior to the X. All de same.

its easy to do 2 lane u-turn... pull big time hand brake and slide out... =X someone in my group taught me that...
