MR suspension info
Wow, this can't be the MR suspension right? Did Mitsubishi really delivering a true sports car in the states? Forget the spec C this suspension looks awesome.

Bilstein/Ralliart Adjustable Suspension Kit looks kick *** with the double springs for stock ride and coil over performance.
With ACD, SAYC, and front LSD i'm willing to pay 35 grand for this bad boy.
Anybody know's the difference in suspension? Shock, stiffer swaybars and etc?

I went to the UK Mitsubishi site, and did a little math to try and guess where an MR would get priced.
The base 8 over there is about 42.150 in USD
The top-of-the-line FQ 340 is about 57,950 in USD
Assuming the MR is about what the FQ 340 is, and assuming it's about 1.4 times more expensive to buy a car in the UK (Divided 42,150 by 30,000 the rough price of the 8 with wing and sunroof) that would suggest that the MR would MSRP for about $41,400 if we actually get it.
I know it's a guesstimate, but you won't be seeing a $35K MR in any dealer showroom in the USA, that's for sure.

Why wouldn't it sell for 35k? All the magazines, which is quite a few now, are all saying that it will be under 35k. If you are talking about dealer mark-up's I don't really think that will happen too much because look at what happened when the dealers marked up the 03's when they were brand new.

Who knows, why not make those coilovers optional on the MR?

You can't just take the UK price and convert it to US and expect that to be the price
