Leftlanenews says it weighs 3,109 lbs. It didn't specify which model though.

Here's the link: http://www.leftlanenews.com/2006/12/...ubishi-lancer/

I think the car looks Bad ***. If it looks this good in base forms, just imagine how good the Evo X will look. I can't wait.

the actual look doesn't look as nice as the concept. it looks like a bigger kia rio, but hopefully they can add some blister fenders, front lip so it will be aggressive looking.

not too bad of a weight. i'm not saying it cant look good modded up, anything can look good, but i just personally do not like the look of the new evo or this lancer.

notice i said the look, i'm sure if you asked me about the engine. i'd talk diffrently

I like it. It looks a lot better than the 04-06's(to me) and a hair better than the 02-03's. Again that is my opinion.

You guys are funny. The engine is covered with plastic...how can you judge if it's nice or not? The plastic is nice, it always is

Civics start around 14,800-15,000 + D/H. a base Civic doesn't have A/C or a radio. Mitsu never sold Lancers like that. IF you put those features on you'll get up to 17-18K in a hurry.
