If only that screen was on the new lancers instead
Not too much I can see that is different.. maybe a bit more chrome here and there
But sound insulation? = more weight!

all MY10 Lancers got extra deadening. And the Evo has actually lost weight according to that article, thanks to different plastics or something

Inside, a new full-colour multi-function LCD display in the centre of the instrument cluster replaces the existing screen, bringing more functions at the same time.
I've been envious of this for a long time

LOL... good to see people read TMR
Yes, it seems even with extra sound deadening that the EVO has lost weight
perhaps that would mean faster times?

I've been a TMR reader since it first started!!! They used to copy articles off Autoblog almost word for word, and use the same pictures! Thank goodness times have changed!

Everyone has to start somewhere I guess
Anyway, they are apparently the fastest growing Aussie Independent Motoring journal/blog/review website, which is a good thing
They have very balanced views imo.
How do I know about it? Tony O'Kane is a friend of mine
He's the senior writer
He brought around the HSV R8 the other day - what a beast!

Oh the MY2010s have more sound proofing now? BAH!

It wouldn't be much. The main addition is the insulated windscreen.
Road noise is helped greatly by different tyres more than anything
I'd know, I have a 2007 build ie bugger all deadening

Ah.. so they've switched the tyres? Good to hear...
To be honest My 09 doesn't really sound that much better than an 07... only on the highway you can tell a slight difference.

I meant change tyres yourself. I don't think they changed from the factory

A speedo reading upto 300 kph is so NOT JDM.
