Your problem is the way you respond to people on a forum is inappropriate and rude. Calling m story "STUPID" is not a construtive post at all.

The right thing to do if you felt my post was misleading in any way or lacking appropriate information you could have restated my message in a different manner.


You need to work on your netiqutte skills. No offense.

 

We are just giving him information. We are not telling him he neeeds to mod it were just saying that if he is into performance he should eventually mod it when he gets the experience he needs. The same way you can punch 120mph on a ralliart is the same way you can punch 120 on a impreza non turbo. I just takes the RA less time to get there.

 

We should be discussing its merits along with everything else that is good about the car. The fact that it is highly rated for safety,it has great performance and it gets decent gas milage for a sporty car PLUS it AWD is good enough for me to buy the car at 18.

 

You posted a street racing story, this forum has a zero tolerance policy on street racing plus it's a stupid and wreckless practice ergo, I can damn well call it a stupid story. If you posted that you drank bleach I'd say the same thing. Also, it's not my job to reinterpret your points to make you look less foolish.

 

You posted that he could/should mod it to be even faster and posted blatantly incorrect information (which considering you own the car, is mind boggling). Your second point makes zero sense.

 

BINGO!!! Madcows just shut everyone up. Thank you Sir.

 

My post clearly did not encourage street racing infact it depicts a dangerous situation when street racing that is why I don't have points for it.


If I said Street racing is cool and I do it all the time THEN you have the right to say it is a stupid post.

It is stupid to tell someone that their post is stupid that I have a right to say because it is and it does not answer the OP's question.

According to you it's a stupid story but I dont see anyone else complaining.

and I wouldn't be talking about posting inccorrect information Mr. INSURANCE GUY..

 

Wow a whole month, guess that means you know me completely. Newsflash, you've likely only seen the threads where people say blatantly wrong things and then get mad when someone says they're wrong.I also stated that when I ran the numbers for the cars, the Ralliart did come out more expensive. It makes logical sense that a more expensive and more powerful car would cost more to insure, especially for a young male. I admit it when I'm actually wrong but usually I don't say something unless I know I'm right. Funny how you haven't jumped down the throat of your fellow Ralliart owner who apparently doesn't know **** about his own car and is spreading lies to potential owners. We have an ignore button, please use it then so I won't have to hear you complain about my posts.

 

I said he can mod it with a few bolt ons and a tune how is that incorrect info and I'm not going to qoute my posts you have all the time in the world to go back and check my posts.

 

You posted a street racing story, it was thus a stupid story, if you don't understand that, I don't know what to say and I've lost a bit of hope for humanity.
See my post above, when I ran the numbers, insurance was more expensive for the Ralliart. It is also only one point in the "why a Ralliart is a bad first car" argument.

 

I vote this thread gets locked.

Let these 2 take their pissing contest to PM.

 

My problem with amby is that he writes arrogrant and rude comments and thinks he knows everything about the ralliart 09 when he doesn't even own one. Hes discouraging people from buying the ralliart on a mitsubishi network.

I'm not the only person hes attacked there are many others on this forum that will tell you.

Words like stupid and idiotic are considered FLAMING if you ask me it causes friction among the community and if it doesn't stop I will report it.

If you don't believe me go to the RA vs World forum where he keeps pissing on the ralliart and calls peoples comments idiotic.

If he doesn't have something nice to say then he doesn't have a right to say it. It is a rule on this forum not to say things in a degrading manner.

Thats all I have to say.

 

anyway back to the topic op can you tell US what YOU want in a car?

 

^

I think we need to all cool down a little, but this thread shouldn't just be locked. Whenever discussions become heated everyone wants to lock the thread, but thats usually when some good information gets shared.

To be honest, I have not seen a post where Amby has been really unfair to anyone. Blunt, yes, but certainly not unfair. The whole entire point of this section of evom is to discuss, argue, and share information. When people bring their feelings or wrong information into the discussion, they deserve to get called out. There is a difference between attacking people and attacking their points. Just because they are blunt and to the point when the disagree does not mean that they don't like you or are trying to hurt you. The spreading of false info is the plague of this forum.

Also, it's a little irritating when someone tells me that I'm beating a dead horse with my point and that it is repetitive. What is repetitive is the attacks I'm getting. Safety statistics, monetary costs, and most of all common sense are all on my side here. It doesn't make sense for an 18 year old preparing for college to own a 25k car. If that point is lost on you, it's not even worth it for me to explain why.

I'll share my example to further my point. I am 23. I just graduated from the U of Wisconsin- Madison last year. I am back in DC working. I have the option of going through with a ma/phd program. I had no idea I was interested in doing this until early this year. I had always thought I was going to law school. Now, If I had bought a 25k car when I was 18-20, I would have to worry about paying that off and getting a long term job instead of getting back into school so I can make real money and make my career coincide with my beliefs. The whole point of college is to find out where you are going; I don't want to take out a massive loan on a something like a car that essentially limits my options.

 

mtag your comments were never called idiotic or stupid thats why you don't feel that way.

Anyhow I would really like to hear from the person who started this thread what they want in a car.

I can assure you that will get rid off any ignorance on my part.
