Taiwanese 2008 Lancer "Lancer Fortis"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8LOGy...eature=related

this video is of the new 2008 lancer being shipped to taiwan. it looks exactly the same but has a different frotn bumper and a slightly different trunk. maybe these parts could be imported?

not saying i'd want the front, but that trunk looks all right.

According to the above article, the new Galant Fortis VR4 will use the AWD system from Evo IX as opposed to the sAWD from Evo X, and it's to be placed between the regular Galant Fortis and Evo X.

In other words, that's likely the RalliArt version we're getting here.

Been in Taiwan for about a week now. Haven't seen any high performance vehicles on the road yet.

I don't like the front end at all, but the rear looks pretty good! I prefer the U.S. version over this one though (looks wise)

Wow that looks about 100x worse than the 08 Lancers.

Infact that looks like something my grandparents might like...
