I think it looks excessively concept-ish. I would guess that Mitsubishi tones down the front end before they release it. The body lines going to the rear fender remind me of the newer Acura TL. I think that Mistub is also focusing too much on making it appeal to the younger crowd and it's taking away from the more-refined look that previous Evos have had. If it makes them more money, though, I'm sure they'll do whatever it takes.

first off, look at the new eclipse... i don't think that's too far off from where the evo will end up. very similar style... i don't get why they are marketing to a younger crowd. at 30K plus, and a gazillion dollars a month for insurance, most younger people can't afford them.

GTO-esque anyone? I do see the TL in it too. I'd say once they tone it down for production it will be pretty cool.

That's not a bad stab at it right there.

Mitsubishi has never had much of my respect and I honestly don't see this as much of a surprise. Its future may indeed be similar to the Eclipse (not that the Eclipse ever impressed me) if they keep this nonsense up.
