Mitsubishi needs more options and packages...

Mitsubishi needs more options and packages to compete with the other car makers, they just cant rely on the user base for sales of their cars they will need newer drivers and newer drivers want more options and packages to make the most out of their stock cars. Like give the ralliart an optional body kit and maybe an optional turbo that makes its 162 to 230HP, and have the opton of having a large carbon fiber wing at the back and an air supported sport tuned suspension for easier lowering.

Now you're probably just gonna go off and have some rant and call me an "OZ fanboy" or something, but it doesn't make sense for Mitsu to have a billion options. All it does is add steps in the manufacturing process, and from their standpoint, that's not viable.

Also, a turbo? 230? Yeah, "let's make our little puddle jumper as fast as our AWD halo car..." I'm sure that's what they're saying right now.

As for an air suspension, I doubt like hell you'll see it on a factory car for under $30k. Stuff like that is expensive, and wears out quickly. Manufacturers are looking for longevity in their product, not making it appealing to the 5% of people who want to tune their cars.

But get mypoint man, if you were to go to the mitsubishi motors web site, and build and price a Ralliart or even an OZ their are very little options and packages compared to Subaru or companies that compete with mitsubishi.

You're also pricing an ENTRY LEVEL car. It comes with all it's coming with. Power windows, power door locks, etc. all they want to know is "Sunroof? Stereo? Wing?" other than that, they don't care. That way they've only gotta roll out a very small number of different configurations, it saves them money.

Thanks for the rude awkeening. If only i had 30k but i dont so i have to settle with the ralliart. Hope fully the aftermarket companies will begin making new parts for the ralliart.

Nobody said anything about how much money you have.

I just said it's not cost effective to have some VERY expensive option packages on an entry level car.
