Sadly, it did. Even with a turbo and an AWD conversion kit, it still couldn't keep up to the other shows

The only way I can see Mitsu getting my business again is if/when they bring over a diesel version of the Lancer. However, by the time they do that, I'll be able to buy a new diesel car from Honda or a VW turbo diesel.

Possibly. I'd want to wait a couple years on that, though, since that'll be the first time anyone's ever built a flat-4 diesel. The AWD would be nice, though.

Now you can exhale. They won't ever make the leap though. But it would be cool.
