Nope... another me too car. Further, in order to get the one I would want it would be $40k.

Did you test drive a Lancer Rallisport? I don't see too many of those on the road.

You mean this?

Yeah that's it, in your price range and AWD turbo. Plus they are better inside than a subaru or mazda.

I see that... I have checked 3 of the 4 dealers online sites, it says they don't have one. But I will call the closest dealer that doesn't have a website and see if they have one.

Problem is, I would rather have the Evo. But that's $38k. I hate that.

It's like owning a Camero RS when you really want the SS.

There are so much aftermarket for the Lancer it's crazy. You could have EVO power levers easily.

See but that's the "me too" aspect I don't like. I could roll up to the car spot friday and see 7 other lancers of various model and year. It's like the gsxr of these car types.

But they sold way less of the current Lancer than the one before it.

Gas Man · 06-15-2011, 09:33 PM

I understand that, but still.

But to be honest about it all. I will go test drive one... maybe this weekend.

I think your too worried about what others are driving. In the price range your going for you are that a lot of people can reach. The Volvo seems like your best bet in that case.

If not someone else suggested getting a used car that used to be in the $50000+ range that is now at what you want to spend.
