The Jury is in. The new 2008 Lancer Evolution has the heart, soul and yes, DNS of Mitsubishi’s racing heritage. A new 2.0 liter turbocharged and intercolled engine is what makes this a ride like no other. And with 291 horsepower and Super All wheel control (S-AWC), what a ride it is. With a shark -nosed front end inspired by fighter jet air intakes and borne from the stock of performance vehicles costing far more, and with four consecutive World Rally Championship titles as validation*, the Lancer Evolution is in a family all its own.
BMW 1-Series gets exhilarating is with the 135i’s 300-horsepower engine mated to the automatic transmission, which has an instant-shifting manual mode controlled by buttons and paddles on the steering wheel. Cruise in sixth gear, punch the button for a rapid downshift to fourth and the engine automatically blips to match the revs. The little coupe rockets forward and pins you back in the seat.
BMW is famed for supple suspension systems, and the 1-Series is no exception. It offers an optimum trade-off between rapid, balanced handling around curves and a good ride on rough surfaces.

The wait is finally over. Subaru has released official photos and initial info on the new JDM-spec Impreza WRX STI. Details remain scant, however, as Subaru only tells us that the new STI is powered by a 16v 2.0L boxer with a twin-scroll turbo mated to a 6-speed manual.
SI-DRIVE, multi-mode Drivers Control Center Differential (DCCD) and Vehicle Dynamics Control (VDC) are also standard. All of these things have been widely speculated on and/or reported already.
The STI is more than a car, it’s a culture. Built upon a rally car heritage, the Impreza WRX STI is for those who want to be a part of a brotherhood of speed and performance. When you are part of the Fraternity of STI, you feel like you’re tearing up the track - even when you’re just sitting at the light.
