I was talking to a good friend of mine who works for a Mitsubishi dealership and he was saying that even tho the car is going to be turboed and ahve awd he did not believe it will be a sucessful car due to the sheer size of the car as it will be coming out of the small car market and be entering the medium sized car market it will be about the same size as a Toyota Camry/Altezia (bigger than the current model)

It's really not that much bigger. 1.5" or so longer, about 2" wider.
Also, FYI folks, since the 08 Lancers are out, I'm going to be splitting this thread up (as soon as I have time, this weekend?.) The Ralliart info will stay here, but the Lancer info will join the mega merge in Lancer general.
Interesting thread, too.

They took care of that last month. 
It's blended in with the Lancer section. Basically, any general Lancer discussion, no matter which generation, will go in Lancer general. Then there's a seperate area for 08+ technical discussion. The same thing will happen here when the 08 Ralliart is released. I imagine the 08 Ralliart could get tied into the Evo section, though, if it's really similar. We'll see when we get there.

k, guys, was bored last week, and i am just now posting these. I photoshopped them (didn't get toooo detailed with the photoshop work) but i hope u appreciate how cool these look. Just a few ideas of "mods" and stuff like that for the new 08' models. By the way, this is not the Evo X, it's the Lancer GTS. (the pics, here is the stock GTS)
GTS model with carbon fiber EVO X hood and spoiler with tinted windows
GTS model with OEM carbon fiber hood, tinted windows and EVO X wheels
GTS model with Tinted windows, Springs, EVO X wheels and wingless
GTS model with Tinted windows, Springs, EVO X hood, wheels AND front bumper
And that concludes my photoshops. I didn't get a chance to mess around with colors, i DID do a BLUE EVO X, but it's still in *.PSD format, i need to export it to *.jpg later. - chris

When i was leaving the dealership yesterday after picking up my car, i saw the first one they had come in. It was a red ES or DE i believe. No wing so i doubt it was the gts. But it looked really good. A lot smaller than i had originally thought. But still looked good.
I might go back in a week or so after work or school and take a glance at the gts if its in.

Already test drove 2008 GTS dark gray and it was frickn sweeeet,BUT it had the CVT and acted like a wounded dog, so no auto tran for me evn tho pattle shifters were cool as hell. But i am going crazy with this 2008 ralliart topic dont want to purchase a GTS then have the ralliart hit the floor 3 months later for $3-5 k MORE AND HAVE MAJOR AWD and TURBO gooodies on it!Please some one help me on this topic have run the net and read some much crap on it that i dont know what to believe 2.0 or 2.4 AWD or FWD before or after EVO X hits the market. Dealer told me EVO X was going to be a 2009 but then again they dont know shiiiiit. So any info on this matter would be greatly helpful going back to dealer to look at Rally red GTS monday.

All Lancers will be based on the 4B11 engine (2.0L). Both the Ralliart and Evo will be AWD with the 4B11T engine. There's a chance they'll have different turbos. Expect the Ralliart's HP to be around 240 at the crank. Earliest release date I've heard for it is January. Earliest release date for the Evo is the November area, but that's just rumors. The only certain thing is that the Evo will be released before the Ralliart.
