I was reading autoweek magazine the other day and it had information about an expected 2009 Mitsu Lancer Ralliart. Pricing will be around $24k.

...bad idea! Apart from that, I would say it had the looks and numbers to steal the majority of Subie's WRX sales. As it is, the 85% of WRX sales that are manuals should have nothing to worry about. Soob might lose most of the 15% automatic sales, however.

Initially, maybe. Don't knock the SST Dual clutch till you try it. Also, Mitsu has stated that they are seriously considering to add a MT in the 2010 model. They didn't have the time to properly test and develop the right gear ratio as they were too concerned with trying to get the Evo X right. I am sure it will get there, just won't be till the 2010 model.

Hi Flyboyiii...
 
How can 24k ish be possible for the 09 Ralliart....not loaded anyway...
 
The awd and + sized engine would seem to make it come in at base between 25 and 29k....Wouldnt you think?
 
Any info you could pass on would be great....
 
Thanks

Price is a little steep by crikey

Since I'm waiting to see if the Lancer Sportback is coming to the US, these lofty prices will not be an issue at this time. However, I hope that they come down in price. $30K for GTS Turbo/Evo Lite might be a bit hard to swallow.
 
Sportback:

i just drove the '09 ralliart (and '09 mazdaspeed3).
i like the RA alot except for two things.
the sounds the engine makes when pushed are harsh-but i could live with that considering there's so much to like about this car.
but i couldnt live with the lifeless launch from a standstill. i have driven many cars over the years and currently drive an infiniti fx35. i have never experienced anything like this before. it is hard to believe that Mitsu designed the car this way. what a waste of awd from a launch.
why is there such a slow wind up to the engine from a standstill-no matter what mode its in?
is there anything that can be done to "fix" this major problem?
 
in comparison, even though the mazdaspeed3 is fwd, it is much quicker and much livelier in the first 30 ft.
 
thanks.
