Hi,
Long time lurker, first time poster...
Just wondering if anyone's heard about a limited edition "activ" lancer? Kinda like the RX that was available late last year but with more stuff!
I'm looking to buy and after calling around one of the dealers mentioned this edition would be out in March. I havent been able to find out any other info tho!
Any help? Thanks!

I have only ever personally seen the "Activ" in the Outlander.... it came out a month after I bought mine in 2005

Yes, the Active edition is coming...
Rumour is that it'll have alloys, spoiler, OEM body kit, Bluetooth and a few other nice bits.
More will be known next week

how hard is it to add an 'e' to the word "activ"?
It should be interesting though.
2008(?) had Olympic edition
2009 had Platinum edition
2010 have Activ
(correct me if I'm wrong)

I think I saw one of these on Tuesday. It looked like an RX but didnt have any RX badges, it had the black tail lights, different wheels (Mitsubishi ones) and an oval decal thing where the model badge would go but didnt say platinum on it.
I saw it going past Chadstone Mitsubishi.
