Default Evo VIII

The latest lancer has all the body kit and none of the motor of the Evo cars. The hot Mitsu we see will be badged the Evolution VIII and will be a direct contender to the Subaru WRXsti. They both will end up having a little over 260bhp, four wheel drive, and probably 6 speeds. The cars will not have to torque to match you, but they are light and are based on race cars. So I would imagine reliability to not be such a problem. the WRC is a pretty tough circut and America doesn't have any cars in it currently (I think). Have fun.
