Wow somebody in this thread is butthurt.

Lol i'm sure you would be butthurt too if you were called stupid. But I think one meant one thing and the other meant something else. It's all confusion.

No one wants ES's anymore. I certainly don't. xD

Ooooohhhh sorry >.<

To avoid confusion, the Cruze SRi-V is not even close to being an RA rival, more of a VRX competitor actually. Its 132 kW of power is obviously more comparable to the 4B12's 125 than the 4B11T's 177.

anyways forget i mentioned the SRI-V and lets move on mmmmkay

Yes it is true the Lancer Ralliart sportback has been deleted from the Mits Lineup.

You will see the old Ralliart wheels come back however they will be a charcoal color.

[quote:bc1dbf20c2=debonaire]Ralliart is a rival for a Cruze? Either youre trolling, or you are one stupid dude.[/quote:bc1dbf20c2] umm that was a bit harsh...... i was speaking in terms of hot hatches that are turbos.....ralliart sportback is 40k, focus ST $34k Cruze SRI-V $30k

Mate you're just digging a deeper hole. Why are you calling a Cruze a hot hatch, because it has a turbo? It's a lukewarm hatch at best. 0-100 in 8.4 seconds isn't even close to quick, its equivalent to a VRX!

Perhaps Mitsu marketing are trying to reposition the RA in the market, and re-enforce it's position as a "performance" car rather than a soccer mum runabout.
Best leave the mumsy cars to the lower end of the segment.

RA is their performance car with the Evo being the "halo" brand for Mitsu.

These marketing manoeuvres usually have a reason, may be signs of things to come for the line up when the full new facelift comes around for 2014/MY15.

or maybe its just that sportback RA`s arent selling well, i think the ratio even in this club is less than 5% sportback to sedan.

[evil.ralliart]

Woohoo...Just added a couple of grand to my Sportback...Never selling it though...Its a keeper. I see more x's than Ralliart SB's on the road.

On that note if I bought a ralliart it would be a sedan. Sportbacks are far more useful but if I'm going to buy a sporty car I'm gonna get the lighter one
