So my old xoqʇıɥs has turned 200,000 km and I figured I'm not gonna spend any more $ on a timing belt, brakes, etc.

My dilemma is: should I go ahead and just get a 2009 GTS 5spd WW or should I wait for the 2010 model?
Maybe the latter will come with HIDs, ASTC or perhaps, like in Japan, AWD option? (I'm in Canada, so no Touring Package for me.)
I tried bugging the local dealership about any changes to this year's model but I got no response.

When do you guys think 2010's are gonna hit dealers' lots? What changes do you think are coming? What would you do?

 

from what i've read around and heard at my dealer, the only new model next year is the EVO X Sportback. As for the lancer i would assume its gonna stay with whatever is on the 2009 model for at least another 2 years. personally, i'm waiting for toyota to release the AE86 Sprinter again...go RWD.

 

But they usually upgrade the different trims, options and so on.
I was actually considering the Hyundai Genesis Coupe 200T for quite some time but it's going to be a while until it becomes available. There's also the insurance issue (2-door, turbo).

 

I haven't heard of any new model coming in 2010. Even if it does the changes will be minor.

 

id try to pick up a used gts if its possible. I know your in canada but down here in texas ive seen some crazy prices. An 08 gts blue with navigation and sunroof with 13k miles just sold for 13,100 +tt&l. they were originally asking 19,250 for it.

gf was ogoing to buy it but insurance was too high.
