see this is wierd because like i said before i asked around and talked to several representitives at the auto show and the guy was selling the ralli art if you put down money and they were knocking off 500$ and this was 25k WITH THE RECARO OPTION PACKAGE.

 

no they will not come with heated recaros bc it will be the same recaros that come out of the gsr which are not heated...

Does any1 know of the time that the RA would be released?

 

I know the recaros wont be heated but I was wondering about the non recaro package, the gts has heated seats so I thought that maybe the base model might have heated seats

 

thats a good question and i have no clue

 

well i dont know if this would count but i got a letter(everyone in australia who drives a mitsu should have) about how the plant in adilade(sp?) is closing and how it affects the workers, current model supply etc.

anyway at point 19. (ill type it out word for word)
What new models are planned to be launched in 2008?
Lancer Evolution, Lancer Ralliart, Lancer Sportsback, Triton 4x2 diesel, a Lancer Luxury model, and a Lancer 2.4l engine option as well as model year additions and upgrades to the full range, with even more new products coming in 2009.

so it looks like they will push for the RA to be released in 08, possible like how the 08 lancer was done, 09 badge but released in like december or something close to the end of the year.

 

I hope we dont have to wait till december to see this car.. My mistu dealer said the RA is coming out with the MR so that should be in 2 or 3 months

 

hey all let me help you guys out a bit with more details on the Ralliart 2009

^^ Old info bro..

 

I dont get it, does it only come in that disgusting orange color??

 

^ lol...i hope you are being sarcastic. Orange is only one of the options

 

I'd like to see this.

It is probably some cool new gauges, you know, mazda stats.

 

Mazda's gauges are sick

 

Sounds very promising awd/turbo/237hp/25k hope it comes out sometimes in the summer.Hopefully ill get a decent amout if i trade in my lancer for it.

 

hopefully it comes out sooner then that

 

the RA has BOTH ASC and ACD. look at the interior pics of the "concept". you can clearly see the ASC OFF button and the ACD controller.
