I think it is a sales thing down there or something, but every damn car has it almost, its strange, i mean who cares.

Yeah that's what I thought. I'm almost certain we're not getting '09 Evos Badged "MIVEC" WTF is that lol. First thing I'd say the sales manager:

"take off the MIVEC badge or that's 2,000 less im paying you"

I know it's based on the market. In Santo Domingo (Dom.Rep.) Lancer GTS are badged "GT"

Regarding the Taillights... I dont know... somehow it seems as if they're made only for the Ralliart. They don't fit that RGO-GSR IMO.

Is anyone else here old enough to remember seeing DOHC on cars? 16-Valve? EFI?

The taillights don't look as good as I thought they would, but I'd take the steering wheel audio controls. I've been wanting to do that mod from the HowTo section but never got around to it.

I just got back from Puerto Rico on business (Stayed out in Isabela and Rincon)

It seemed that all Mitsubishis there have that 'MIVEC' badge, even the lancers.

Probably just a different set of logos for their country.

Did this car have the cup holder cover that the 09s in Japan got?

I wouldn't buy it but I think it looks kind of cool... I saw the same color on a Ralliart and it looks a lot better in person.
