It's closer to a PT cruiser than anything, but regardless...spool, you've been instigating a lot recently. Please stop.

Let's get the thread back on track. Criticism is one thing. Baiting is another. Let's try to keep it civil.

although it is similar, and maybe its just because i have a grey interior, but i really like the interior of the new ralliart. i really like that the new ones come with blacked out headlights and fog lights, i think they look much better in the black housing. but i don't see why anyone would spend over $300(correct me if i am wrong) for that 315watt infinity system with an 8" woofer when for that amount of money good components can be bought and a sub added with a lil more cash. just my .02 i am obsessed with my system.....

Mine came with Bridgestone Potenza tires. I am not sure if they all have the same though. I bet from region to region they may be different. The handling is the best part. It is very responsive. It is interesting. It is stiff and has a real solid feel but yet it isn't too bumpy on the highway. The brakes are one of my favorite parts about it. the four wheel discs help out a lot. the power is smooth and it is easy to squeeze on the power coming out of a corner. very little lag between the time you apply the throttle and when you feel it kick in.

I like the seats also. from what I have seen they are supposed to be the "sport seats" out of the Evo VII GTA. that car came with three types. leather, the typical awesome recaros, and these "sport seats" if you have a GTA brochure(PAGE 16) you can see them (in blue not red) in one of the small pictures that showed all three seat options.

the stereo thing is funny. i love it cause I am not real hands on with stereos. i wanna buy one, turn it on and enjoy it. thats it. if you are a stereo guy. don't do the package. save the money and do your own. sure you lose the sunroof but it may not matter. to each his own.

As for the color topic. My first choice was white. However, the white is diamond pearl white. I was hoping for more of a true white. The Evo V had Scotia White. that would have been great. So I went with Thunder Gray. i thought it accented the interior nicely and I am getting the silver anodized shift knob, silver gauge cluster surround, and the silver anodized e-brake lever. I figured they would go well with the gray.

As for price the MSRP is 19,972(including the sun and sound package). there is a $500 rebate. you should pay just over 19,000 then take away the rebate. So about 18,600 or 18,700 with the rebate taken out. then add taxes and tags.

One thing I will say, I love being a Lancer owner. Yesterday I drove up next to a guy in an OZ and he said, " cool man. just get it? you'll love it." then later that day I drove past someone and the guy waved to me! Sounds cheesey but at the same time its cool.

i like the forum as well, a little ball busting going on but just clean fun. Everyone who dishes out can take it so its cool.
