R/A is nice but if I tried to trade in my car I'd get nothing for it so might aswell just keep it.

Yep. But people in my city are pretty dumb... i could probably pass it off as an Evo to some idiot punk and get lots of money through a personal sale... haha.

I went to my local dealer and the RA premium there is $39,500. The Evo X GSR is $41K. Extra $25/month payment for a way better car and can mod it a whole lot more. I heard you can't do engine mods to the RA because the tranny goes into safe mode and brings it back down to stock power levels. Don't know if that's true but I've heard quite a few say that(including my sales man)

the ralliart will fail in sales. the average buyer is not likely to consider a 40k compact car, and enthusiasts, if already forking out 40k for a mitsubishi, will most likely go straight for an evo.

They should've scrapped the GTS, GT, DE, ES whatevers and just had the RA for the GTS price and then the EvoX lol

i think the GTS should have been the ralli-art. so a turbo lancer for around 31k taxes included. and then have the evo starting at 40 something. I really think its dumb on mitsu's part to have sooooo many variants of the lancer. Its like a domestic car line up!
