The car looks nice but I have to agree with them. It aint an Evo, dont try to fool everyone thinking it is. Its like this ES I saw the other day that said Ralliart on the windshield... Its the equivalent of non Si civic owners getting Type R badges on their car.. thats just wrong.

The only Evo thing Id like on the Lancer is the wing, simply cause its the only one imo that looks good on a sedan. Heck it looks good on anything, I saw an Evo wing on an Integra and I thought it looked alright.

The base lancer and even the RA will always be in the Evo's shadow.. and well sorry to say.. you guys made it that way. The car will never have its own identity.

no it isnt. a better analogy would be to put a banner that said Mivec not ralliart, ralliart is teh "special edition" of teh usdm lancer but ralliart is a company that makes aftermarket parts for mitsubishi.

Not really.. since you could argue that the shoulder pads themselves arent just a brand stuck on, but are actual Ralliart products made to enhance youre umm.. driving performance. yeah...

Hmm.. I thought Type R was Honda's racing faction(ala Mitsu's Ralliart brand or Dodges SRT brand) Probably not though.

Yeah, and it would be rice to have a Ralliart sticker or shoulder pads if your car is devoid of Ralliart parts. Don't rep what you don't have. It can be all summed up just like that.

Ah, I gotcha. Hey, I was victim with my Lancer. I had some that had the "Powered By [Kenji] Mitsubishi". They are much more comfortable than stock. When I got my Civic, I just used a knife and cut the lettering off the pad. Now straight black.
