Lancer Ralliart First Drive - Edmunds

I'd wait on this one to see if a manual tranny comes out. Didn't Mitsu have problems with the X MR DSG? Shit, has Mitsu ever learned how to make a GOOD tranny?

This tranny is not made by Mitsu. There were a lot of bugs in the programing, but supposedly those has been worked out.

Define good. My Evo transmission is holding up great, and I've put over 30,000 hard driven miles on it in its 68,000 miles of life. Do you think Mitsubishi engineers care what happens when you throw more power than stock at the damned things? No. When you learn how to drive and maintain a vehicle properly then maybe you won't think they suck.

Good: BMW, Porsche/Audi/VW

Wow, way to sound like an ass if that was directed to me specifically. I more than maintain my vehicles, and I have no issues using a clutch pedal and moving a shift lever. I even granny shift my Shep stage 3 because I'm a pussy, and I even use wonderful fluids in my drivetrain parts which are regularly checked and/or replaced.

You need to get out and drive more cars if those are the best manual transmissions you have ever driven! Go drove a NSX, S2000, and/or a '06+ SI and nothing else will compare. I'd take my Evo tranny over the majority of German car transmissions.

Ive only driven one s2000, and it WAS good.

So you've driven a manual BMW, Porsche, Audi and VW then, correct? I have not. It's time for you to stop making your posts sound as if you know more than you actually know.
