Which one do you prefer......US Lancer or Taiwan Lancer??

Yesterday I came across the Taiwan version of Lancer and they have done some pretty interesting changes. Just curious how many people here would prefer the Taiwan version over the US version we have right now??

Personally, I like the rear of Taiwan version but not so much for the front. The US version's tail light is just plain too simple.























Not sure if it is ok to post this kind of poll here but I couldn't find anywhere else to post. So let me know if this is the wrong place. thnx

I'm not driving it if it doesn't look like it can inhale the car in front of me on the freeway.

Butt looks the part.... front looks like a Kia Forte Koup Mockup but I think this Taiwanese Lancer was out before the Kia Koup, and the Forte is a carbon-copy of the Civic... lame.

rear bumper and maybe even the tail lights other than that they can stick that gold "Made in Taiwan" sticker on it.

True that, ppl in Taiwan are hating Mitsu Taiwan for changing the front end of the car....lol

Now aftermarket companies are developing body kits that will convert the Taiwan version to USDM version ^^;;
