Yeah you could also get a 20 disk unit for your trunk from a shop and still only pay around 200 or a little more. this is of course if you want to install yourself, I personally would get my on disk changer and do it

 

I'll post pics as soon as I get back home with the car. It should be later today.

 

Kool! Hey, the 05 RA comes standard w/ the new grill and sport (read: aluminum) pedals right??

 

I had to work till late tonight so it wasnt the right time to take pics once I got back home. (a bit too dark) Pics tomorrow I guess.

Im so impressed by this car I cant believe it. Tinted windows looks pretty awesome. and the car sounds awesome!! Cant believe the exhaut sound. Its not too agressive but still quite audible. I chose white color for the car. People cant believe what they see when I show them the thing. Quite funny. Oh well , another day of hard work tomorrow... till night. (sigh). When will I be able to enjoy my car??

The seller told me I didnt need to drive the engine for like 2'500km under 3500 RPM. He also said they use for the new cars a special oil made for that purpose. It only need to be changed at 6'000km with normal oil and not at 3'000km like it is said in the manual. This special oil is worth 125$ for like 6 pint. He assured me there was abolutly no troubled if I decided to floor it till I got home. If hes not right, they'll have to change my engine. I dont think he said that out of knowledge. ...right? (no matter what, I floored it.)

 

Heck, off the lot I was takin it up to 4,000-5000 rpm's, havent had any problems..........yet

 

Same thing here... and did the same thing with the Integra, a car I kept for 5 years without any hint of a problem.


BTW: I dropped by the dealer (Sherbrooke Mitsubishi) and Brian (the manager) told me the same darn thing about that new 6 disk changer being available with the full Sun & Sound and bla, bla, bla... I think he actually wanted to entice to buy one, but then when I said I upgraded to an MP3 unit and didn't need to change disks anymore, he kinda shut up and forgot about it. Which means two things: First, nothing is interesting to these guys unless there's a percentage of the transaction up for grab... and second, he didn't even know his new unit played MP3s or he would have rubbed it in my face for good measure!

 

Oh, I almost forgot... Brian also confirmed that the new RA doesn't get the new grill (at least not for now). He didn't even know there was one available for the '04 model (at an astronomically high price, mind you)!

 

Whats this? A sales person who doesn't know what the hell they are talking about......no.....really?

 

I kid you not! What a world, uh?!?

 

yea, I didnt get a different grill as I thought I'd get; its still the same as the 2004 . And yes, mistu sellers are a bit confused sometimes here in Sherbrooke . Oh well, as long as I have my car, im happy.

 

if he said u were getting the grill, and they offer it as an aftermarket, make them give you the damn grill!

 

He never told me about the grills. The only place ive heard about the grills is here.
