New limited edition 'platinum' pack released for Aus. See http://www.mitsubishi-motors.com.au/pag ... tinum.aspx

Looks like VR spec but with the MMCS and rain sensing wipers and a chrome upper grille (on the sedan only for some reason).

No details of pricing as yet.

MMCS is the satnav screen isn't it? Can't remember.

Yes, it also integrates Bluetooth for compatible mobile phones and a 6(?) stack cd or maybe even dvd player. I am not exactly sure either as there isn't one in my car!

Only a single CD player ... but will play MP3 files from a dual layer DVD

Yeah it is the touchscreen sat nav/DVD player, is pretty cool actually draws pretty graphs of you l/100km average speed etc even has a lap time stop watch.

Bandit, think they all get the chrome front grill, it is the chrome boot lip that only the sedan gets

That would make sense yes, but the flyer says:

- Chrome belt line moulding (sedan only)
- Chrome upper grille surround (sedan only)

so I found it a bit odd that sportback would miss out on the different grille.

so... not worth it then ??? lol
Better of getting a VR and putting your own screen in

P.s... no offence but i just cant seem to make myself like the sportsback.... jsut looks funky

Depends on the price, their specials are normally good value. Wouldn't suprise me if they priced it the same as the VR as a promo.

Does it have the 40GB Digital Music Server? Here in the U.S. you have to have the Sun and Sound package and Navigation package to get the MMCS. Also stability control, traction control, dusk sensing headlamps and rain sensing wipers are only available on 09 GTS models with the Touring package. You have to get both of the other packages to get the Touring package.

So basically those of us in the U.S. have to buy the top of the line model fully loaded to get some of the things you guys can get at lower trim levels.

Bobcat, our MMCS is crap compared to what they have in the US. No music server and it only will take a DVD-DL for MP3s tops so 8.4GB tops!!

better off getting a VR or even ES... change rims, cd player and get dark tints and you have th "same" thing i rkn.

Other then that ... FAIL!!

Unless its teh same price as a VR... then get it

That stinks, but you did get some other good options standard, like the ASC with traction control correct?

Bandit · Postby **Bandit** » Tue Jan 13, 2009 7:24 am

Yes, all models come with the full suite of safety gear, except ES I don't think has a driver's knee air bag.
