Default Mitsubishi Lancer Ralliart 2006

Just had to post about my new car and the wonderful service.
I was looking for a new car.
Not sure what to buy.
Heard so many good things about the Mitsubishi Lancer Ralliart.
Went to their showroom "Cooksville Mitsubishi"
Sales guy, Dan Howarth,not the usual car salesman.
Amazing,no pressure,boy oh boy,how could i not buy this car.
Had it 3 days,so much fun.
I have owned a lot of cars,this is a pleasure to drive.
Seriousily,if you are thinking about another car ,see Dan,the Royal treatment.
If you also own one of these please let me know if you are/where excited as i am.
P.S. I am not related to anybody,just a regular buyer.

I actually work at a Mitsu dealership as an apprentice. Markham Mitsu to be exact. Ralliarts is one of the best sedans i seen/driven/PRICE. From my experience...the Lancer and Lancer Ralliarts have almost no problems at all besides regular check ups. The Ralliart is fast if you know how to drive stick shift. We got packages that make them even faster such as a manaflow catback system and cold air intake systems. Even better we have evo spoilers that make the ralliart look like the exact evo besides the headlights.

for bang for buck the mazda3 is still better value than the ralliart. THe interior of the mitsu still looks like econobox circa 1993. Yes it is a fast car with 160 hp and tons of torque, but the mazda 3 gt is faster as is the subaru imprezza and you get more standard features for the same price.

How do i like the gearing?(5 speed manual)
Nice,close and fast,very snappy.I can double de-clutch with ease.
I had a Jaguar "mark 2" many years ago in England and it seems very similiar to the Jag.
Basically,i love the car all round.
Do you have one and what do you think about the gearing?

They've been saying the Evo's coming since the 8! Every year the dealers say that they "hear" the Evo's coming, but there's some safety regulations that's preventing it from selling here. Two years later, still no Evo...

Although I did see an actual black Evo VIII parked up in Markham, so exciting, it's the only Evo VIII I've seen besides the one at the 2004 auto show though. I wonder how much it costed that guy to import it from the States?...
