We allready had the colour and use it on the outlander and RVR, it has been popular so maybe thats why they replaced the brighter , bolder octane blue. I like both colours.

Refresh means major updates. Most models and makes do this every 5 years or so.

Seems like the '99 oz eclipse, just enough goodies for the average consumer. If it had more power/performance I'd be interested. The color does look awesome though!

I think so say a colour is better or worse is pretty specific to a person... otherwise they would all be white.

not exactly....public opinion and preference decides a color is better or worse in the consumer market. sure some may like a color over another but you know right off the bat when something strikes a nerve. when mitsu release the MR in obp buyers immediately flocked to it. not so for this color, instead you hear, I'll wait and see....granted it's completely new to the line, but still bland reaction nonetheless.
this new color is similar to the plasma blue pearl subaru has and though many like it, by a large margin the preferred color is world rally blue(obp for mitsu).
lucky for subie buyers they offer both.
thx for posting the video though.....

I like both blues, in the sti I prefer the Plasma, on the lancer I prefer the octane blue. I will post a video of the first 2013 Cosmic Blue Evo that rolls off the truck for you guys.

I agree, that I would have liked to have seen a bump in performance, not just a different color for the car.

Hopefully the refresh will give us what we are asking for.

That isn't really a SE is it? I noticed on the inside it looked like a MANUAL shifter style plate than a automatic shifter plate. I thought SE only came automatic, I believe that is a ES model.

No it is a SE. The badging and names are different in the U.S but we have not had an ES here since 2009. The SE can be had in Canada with either a manual or an auto.

Then why not both options in the states too, Manual or auto? They would sell more SE's here if available in manual too. That makes NO sense at all.
I'm looking at picking up a SE model around Christmas time myself.
Anybody know for certain if Fast Key can be used on the SE model. All Mitsubishi sites say NO.
