Question How popular are the RA's where you are?

How popular are the RA's in your neck of the woods?

When I went into the dealer to purchase mine, they had just started getting them in and hadn't really sold any. I was just wondering how the RA's are doing in other parts of the 'States and the world, because it seems like the RA's are a lot more popular outside of Houston, TX.

Haven't seen any RA's in Orlando but I have seen the 04 lancer as a popular rental.

I'm the only one running around with one in my area right now. The dealer only had the car for less than 24 hours before I bought it. Had only 9 miles on it when I got it so I was the only person to test drive the car except for the mechanic and the guy that drove it on and off the truck.

I have not seen a single one. In fact, i have never even seen an EVO in motion, only a couple parked ones. Have seen a few STIs and SRTs around though.

I've had my ralli-art for about a month and I can say I have not seen a single one other than mine, unless it was at the dealership. I've seen a couple of '03 oz though, but no ralli-arts in mississauga :P

Up here in MN, I haven't seen one on the road yet. I've checked the dealership that had the first one in the area and they haven't even sold it yet. In fact, I've only seen one 04 Lancer and an old lady was driving. The 02-03 OZ Rally are a dime and dozen now. I see more of those than the regular Lancers on the road. I'm sure that many people looking for new cars don't like the new headlight design on the 04 Lancers. They look allright on the Rallyart but on the base ones without the side skirts and front lip, they look too plain and ugly. Same with the new Galant. When the 97-03 Galants came out, I saw a ton of those on the road. It's been like four months now and i haven't seen a single one. I say down with the pontiac styling. It's just too weird for the general public and is starting to ruin the sales and image that they worked hard to get during 97-02. In fact, the dealership that I get my Mitsus from used to be in a building with Suzuki and Volvo which was across the street from their Nissan only building. But because of successful sales, they moved Mitsubishi to the Nissan building by themselves and Nissan moved into the other building with Suzuki and Volvo. Its a good looking building for Mitsu, but I hope it lasts this next year.

They have three here, Ralliarts that is they've sold one and I'm getting a base modle when they get another one from their other dealership. I saw one leaving but I think it was an OZ modle they've sold the ES and LS ones pretty well.
