2009 Ralliart is on US shores! Lots of pics!

I agree, it is over-priced and I think it may cause them to miss their mark. It'll compete against a fully loaded WRX, but they really need to have a base one available w/o the Recaros, SST tranny, etc. Also, I was not impressed with the SST tranny in the MR, I can only imagine this one will feel even more watered-down and mushy.

it will probley drop in price after it has been out for a while just like all the other evo's droped alittle

mmmmm, ralliart RS. 5-speed, base lancer seats, single piston brakes, and one wheel drive! :)

A stripped down version would be kinda cool, if that tranny would hold up to 300whp (i.e. bolt on a bunch of evo stuff or afermarket evo stuff) it will be fuuuun!

If the insurance on this would be roughly the same price as an Evo, I think id still go *slightly* used Evo.

FWD? No. Just something a little more GSX-esque. Some regular mitsu seats, 5-speed, basic AWD, 16" whatever rims, hell even through some pop-up headlights, then I'd be more interested :)

wow, that steering wheel is hideous!

All of the steering wheel controls are nice though!

Bump .... These just hit MN dealers. As far as I know Walser has a Octane blue one without the recaro package (26,000ish), and Brookdale has a Silver one with the recaro package (30,000ish).
