Talking 2015 Ralliart Lancer should I jump on it??

Hi how is everyone doing? First time ever posting on here. I'm Looking into buying a 2015 Ralliart lancer 2.0l turbo. Just would like to know more about anything I should look for when shopping around and anything that would help me choose what year would work best for me? I'm Looking for a good quality new car that's not going to break the bank and still have a nice small turbo for extra power. I found one with less then 1,000 miles and for only $19,000 Let me know if this is something I should jump on? Thanks for taking the time to respond to this. Have a great day!

2015 Ralliart $19K and only 1K miles?

Something is fishy check the carfax and/or even better check with a mitsu service department the history tied to that car VIN number.

I bought my 2015 RA used for $24K and less than 10K miles.


Keep in mind that these cars are pretty expensive to own. Some of the maintenances all mandatory and costly (Transmision oil & filter ~$400 doing it yourself).

Don't forget to call your insurance provider, it won't be as bad as an evo. But it's still going to be a whole lot worse than a regular sedan. But you need to do as much research as you can, find one that has options you want, preferred color, good condition, etc.


The worst thing you can do is jump the gun and buy the first one you see that looks good, you'll regret it later.

Agreed with other poster, check the Carfax on that thing first. It just seems weird it's basically a brand new car still, for $19k, while they retail for $29k. That's a huge drop in price even with a few miles on it.
If possible take it too someone who knows cars(or evo's) and see what they say about it and inquire why it's so cheap??
*is this from a dealer or someone selling it personally? Maybe having financial issues if so?

Make sure its AWD with a turbo and not a GTS with RA badge.

You beat me to it Bom's Evo.

I would have an official Mitsubishi dealer inspect it also.

Based on his profile, he picked it up!

Flush the tranny get that fluid out of there.


Save money for tranny flushes! ESP if you plan to mod it.
