WATCH MITSUBISHI LANCER EVO X IN HYPER DORKY EURO COMMERCIAL

European regulators force automakers into awkward situations that we in North America can’t understand. The small print we regularly see – “Professional Driver On Closed Course” and “Do Not Attempt” – isn’t a part of what the nannies want viewers to see.

Why are we talking about this now? Check out the terribly lame advert below and try convincing me that it isn’t an Evo X turnoff.
