hmm... maybe this is the first GTS with a turbo, the article says that is is probably the new RA, but I guess we'll have to wait and see. I am more leaning to it being the RA.

oh yeah and the winged ES thing is REALLY common.. dealerships are putting on GTS wings and sometimes GTS like aftermarket rims .. so the people that couldn't afford the GTS have something that looks like one
the local dealership gets all their rims done through the shop I work for

most of the lancers at the dealerships i've seen have the spoiler and are ESs or DEs. They also put the ES wheels on DEs a lot of the time, but I don't think I've seen GTS wheels on anything but a GTS yet.

the stock muffler was gone i could see that wasnt there, but if she had a smaller muffler i couldnt see it. it was so loud she didnt even notice me. im pretty shure it was probally cut back at the axle and probally welded but no mounts.

We need pictures of this mythical turbo Lancer's turbo to prove that it really has a turbo.
Most likely the loudness is from not having a muffler or a huge portion of the exhaust has been deleted and the turbo decal is just that, a decal.

those '09 ralliart pictures.. I noticed ALOT of things on this car and it is so much like the X that it makes me wonder why make a car so close to the X?
it has projectors, dual exhaust, the ribbing going down the roof (aluminum roof?) vented hood, intercooler etc...
only way to keep it from taking X sales away is for it to be FWD and 5 speed. I wonder if it will keep the 4B11
how old are these pictures? if they are old it may just be pre-X pictures like how they tested the X on a previous gen lancer body but I doubt it

it prolly sounded like it was idleing high because of the straight pipe exhaust making it a very high-mid range idle sound, a 2.0 wont be deep and sound like its running fast
no turbo...
