looks pretty good, I wonder how much mitsu will price this.

 

I like this option better then the evo

 

^^ yea cuz its cheaper.

 

The ralliart looks pretty cool, just need to get rid of that chrome strip or make it black.

 

Just like the WRX is to the STI
if this is in the low to mid $20k I could see this being a major success for mitsu

 

^yes. especially the younger kids who can't afford an evo

 

Finally, a Ralliart that lives up to the Ralliart name!

 

Other than the HP levels, it seems like there is very little difference between this and the evo. Differences most people could probably look beyond anyways. I wonder how easy it would be to bump up the power levels, compared to the evo.

 

1 Real question, is it available in a manual. Or will they make you get the evo X for that?

 

looks sweet...i need one since I cant afford an evo

 

As far as I've heard: only that paddle shifting ****...

 

no manual, only auto, haha.

 

Yea from what I saw on the press release it looks like just that freakin SST. I mean would it really be that difficult to provide a manual as well? The Wrx comes in both transmissions and seems to be doing ok....

 

This news sucks! As an Evo owner and future X owner I want to know that my 40k is separating me from the rest of the crowd.

Now that everyone can just go out and buy a Ralliart Lancer and have exactly what an Evo has, it makes the Evo X pointless. If they were going to make this, they should change the hood, no chrome strip, no dual exhaust, and no Recaros.

I'm paying 40k and someone paying around 28k can get exactly what I have. Bull****.
