So I was on the Mitsubishi Japan site and I saw this http://www.mitsubishi-motors.co.jp/g...ial/index.html It looks like a Lancer... but its not?



EDIT: Click the red box in the bottom right hand corner after the flash site loads.

It's just a sporty version of Lancer w/ extra junk added on the top and they called it a GALANT. I am not surprised....lol

That's nice that the car is a good enough platform to pull off being called a Galant.

looks like the lancer is still the old style lancer, and the 08 lancer is called the galant fortis.

OT: with the honda fit selling so well, hope they bring over the colt ralliart version r

Click on it and it take to this weird virtual showroom with a man, women and a hello kitty. I just think its funny. But then again, I'm easily amused.

Hello Kitty FTW.

I also like how the license plate on the Galant Fortis page is the chassis code (CY4A) followed by 411 (for the 4B11, I'd assume).
