Bought my white Ralliart this afternoon. So far so good. I love it. I looked at both the Evo and the Ralliart and decided on the Ralliart for a couple reasons. The evo was an extra $600 a year for me on insurance (23, clean record, progressive) over my 2007 Civic. Also the Evo was a little over 5 grand more. I work full-time and go to school full-time so I really didnt want to choke myself on payments. Also the recaros were uncomfortable as f*ck. I used my paid off Civic DX as a down payment and got $12,500 (paid 14,000 two years ago ha) for it. Got the extended bumper to bumper warranty of 5 year/50,000 miles. Overall I'm pretty happy.

The performance obviously isn't what the evo is, but the fun factor is still definitely there. I took it pretty hard around a few corners and seems to hold its own pretty well. The brakes are touchy and seem to stop the car decently, but i guess anything is better then the brakes on the civic. The transmission is sweet, and would recommend any of you guys who havent gotten a chance to try it out yet to do so. I paid $25,119+ttl blah blah. The evo's they had were going for $31,060 w/SSS+ttl.

Plans as of now are just some coilovers when they become available, and some nice lightweight wheels.

Here's some pics from the dealers website:

Congradulations

 

you might be the first one on this forum to own a Ralliart lancer. Can't wait to test drive one in Australia.

See for the Price you got if it was under 26k was a good deal now what was the APR if you dont mind me asking. Im in the works with a dealer here in Rahway,NJ and w/ O APR for 60 months i got approved for but if they would offer a Ralliart for Less then 26k i would do it.

 

Thanks. Go stillers!

 

I guess mitsubishi motors re did their credit score tier system due to the economy so all the other morons who didnt pay their payments screwed me. I got 6.9% with a 704 score. The guy told me that 2.9% was the best on the ralliart and that was with a 800 some score.

 

Do you know which reporting agency they use to check credit? My score varies by almost 100 points between agencies.

 

6.9% isn't awful and I think it doesn't negate your getting it for under MSRP (assuming "blah, blah" didn't set you back any). I think dealers are nervous and want to move these things that Mitsu appears to have dumped on them seemingly without warning.

 

OMFG! White is pure sex!!

 

wow..nice bro...turbo !!! ftw.!!...everytime i see the front of ralliart, evo. or lancer i'm lookin for an intercooler..now it will be even harder to spot an evo
