Dealers like Hickory Mitsubishi in Hickory, NC are all about bringing the Evo Lancer (and the base Lancer for that matter) back to their store fronts. Looks like each will have a chance.

The current Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X, a "rally car for the street," may be going away, or rebranding itself. Rumor suggests that Mitsubishi will "retire the legendary model for greener pastures after the Evo X's production run ends."

Mitsubishi is planning to phase out three of their vehicles by 2013: the Eclipse coupe, Galant Sedan, and Endeavor SUV. While the idea of these three vehicles hitting the proverbial chopping block is significant, it's important to remember that 2013 is a full two years away.

We all have them? a handful of token points of interest perfect for a dinner or cocktail party. The best of them serve as a key to interesting conversations.

More production-ready than futuristic, the concept CS follows Mitsubishi's current language with a mix of sharp and curvaceous lines, and also infuses elements from its most recent models.

The front grill and side profile bears more than a passing resemblance to the Lancer's shark nose. In addition, the compact car, which is only the…
