I didn’t think I’d like it either until I drove one but it’s a really nice transmission. It’s way more similar to a manual than an automatic with fancy shift buttons.

50K? You can buy a Z06 for that much and have an actual car.

Paddleshift is a nice option, but manual should be standard on ANY sports car. 50k seems a bit much to me even though I paid somewhere in teh ball park for mine…

Mostly aluminum super sedan? How much does it weigh? For that much money for a Lancer it better weigh about 2800#. lol

Wow, so much evo hate.

Although, I can’t see spending $45k, when I got basically the same thing for $28k and 0%.

But seriously though where else can you spend under $3,000 on mods and be making 360-380 awhp?

I loved my Evo but there is a point of diminishing returns. When I sold my Evo for $21,000 it was like new and pretty damn quick.

Voiding the warranty a $50,000 Mitsubishi does not sound like something I want to do. It is just my 2 cents, I am sure these things will sell.  
I would rather buy a used RS4 but again that is just me.

I wouldn’t spend 50 on it, but I also expect that you can probably haggle it down to 45 pretty quickly and that not totally unreasonable.

I look at the X vs. 8,9 the same way that I look at an E30 M3 vs. an E46+ M3… they might as well be a different brand with how different they are, but they are both great cars.

Jesus. A lancer with a $40k upgrade package? You can buy real cars for that price!

See that’s the funny thing. Fuck the S4. The S5’s base price is $52,400. :roflpicard:
