I got one a year ago. I love it. The TC-SST is awesome!
The stock tires are shit though.
If you buy a tactrix cable (you can find used ones online for around $100)
Then Google search: 2009 Lancer Ralliart - GST Basemap (Don't worry its for all years) find evolutionm (the first result)
I did it on my car (Basemap + Boostpill). Now I consistently rip 0-60's in the mid 4's with that and a cat-back. With the stock tires you'll probably run high 4's low 5's though. 1/4 mile in low 13's. =)
funny thing is.. japan doesnt have the Ralliart version they have the basic and the evo... and in between they have the GT which is 2.0 Fwd but has all other features like this just not boosted n awd..
I don't care if its the fastest or not between the WRX and this car... daily liveability and non- down syndrome looks really make the ralliart stand out
Russia, watch what people say in every company advert below about words near tsars its what u searching still about money that is is not hier for sure of course
i got the base one but i already put HID 's with DRL bypass and just installed Eclipse Navigation which i really like... i didnt get the sports package coz i can install it myself and much more cheaper...next is project is the Ultimate Racing Exhaust and short ram intake..and AMS base flash which will gonna put 277 whp
actual 0 - 60mph is 5.3 seconds and topspeed is 145 MPH i have one is awesome car!!!!! just race my cousin in his lexus IS 350 stock to stock result the lexus is just half a car faster but just a few mods the ralliart will fly.....5 star for the Ralliart!!!!!
@kitikitiboy how much do you pay a month for the ralliart? and is fun to drive? I'm just wondering because i need to know if its worth it to pay the extra money for a evo as my first car.
@NasahrSandi9 i have the 2010 ralliart bought it 26 G's .......it always put a smile on my face everytime im in a highway....its quick...if i can afford the evo i will chose the to buy it but it cost too much and the insurance cost a lot too.. but i love my ralliart just breaking in the engine then i will buy an exhaust and intake that will help a lot in performance...
@kitikitiboy the thing with the ralliart is that with the options I want recaro seat pack, navi, 700 watt, stero, etc it cost about $33,000 dollars and this car without a navi or the 700 watt stero and recaro seats would be much cheaper but much less satisfing. anyways what options does ur ralliart have?
People have tuned the RA Lancer to about 270-280HP just with a reflash. Take it to a good tune shop, and you will be able to unleash some serious power thats been locked away.
lolz, everyone here seems like money grows on trees. The Ralliart is a good car to buy for those who want more from their lancer GTS but not break the bank and go nuts to get a full evolution.
Sticker prices are so close tho Ralliart 29k, and EVO 33k. Dealers easily come down to 30k on the EVO GSRs so honestly I dont want to get a Ralliart for that reason alone. Its such a small gap that the EVO would be stupid not to get.
So what makes the Ralliart different than an Evo X; performance wise? I know it has less horse power, and different wheels/tires, but what else is there?
It's about 2 sec slower to 60..60 less hp..wheels..smaller wing..no body kit...smaller turbo...no brembo brakes.. i drove both of them before i bought my evo x.. it doesn't sound like a lot but the evo is a lot more fun..you can really tell the hp diff when you spool it up
hi all I HAVE JUST ORDER MY RALLI ART WONT GET MINE TILL NOVEMBER AS I ORDERED THE SAT NAV FULL LEATHER INSIDES AND ROCKFORD SOUND SYSTEM .. CANT WAIT TO TAKE IT FOR A SPIN ... I WOULD LIKE TO SAY I WOULD OF BOUGHT A EVO 10 BUT I JUST DIDNT LIKE THE SEATS ... TRUE .. SO I ORDER A RALLI ART LANCER TO GO WITH MY GLXR TRITON ... WELL LOOKING AT THE COMENTS DOES ANY ONE OWN ONE .. THEY ARE STILL MAKING MINE ... I ORDERED THE JET BLACK ONE AS YOU CAN SEE WITH EVERY EXTRA I COULD FIND FOR IT ...

lol 0-60 in fucking 6.6sec its so sad it sucks for a 37 000$ car .. I paid my litle japanese car 6000$ (180sx) with minor mod. and i can do 0-60 in 5.7 sec and im sure the handeling is better
yes that is true, the acceleration of the ralliart is 6.6 because the CVT, BUT WITH MANUAL TRANSMISION OF 6 SPEED THE ACCELERATIOS IS NEAR TO 4.9 SECOND, the handeling is superior to the 180sx, remember it have 4WD
i have this car !!! only that is not really this one ;( is the cheaper one the one that is not evo or rally or anything like that but is the same color XD
I have one and it is a blast to drive, and, IMO, looks hot, you have to brake torque the transmission to get those 5.3 second 0-60 times, since it has no Launch Control, but let me tell you, one it gets going, it puts you in your seat quick.
I'd say that - for those who enjoy winding roads - the narrower tyres are actually a bonus. You'll also learn a lot more from driving such a car too, but I wouldn't recommend it on public roads.
Is the Ralliart the highest performance trim on the new Lancer? I have the new Consumer Reports guide and the two highest engines they have is a 237hp and a 291hp. However, where they list all the features on the available trims, Ralliart is the highest one and it says it comes with a 237hp engine. Is there another trim or can you just get a Ralliart with 53 more hp?
oh and i like how we went around a corner with gravel on it doing 80 and never slipped once and the smartkey where you get in and turn it over without putting a key in and the lock button on the handles and the unlocks with ur hand
i wet on a test spin with this the other day and all i can say is damn like he was doin 110 60ft from the stop sigh and no screeching tirs we stopped and it picks up speed so well and it shifts faster that you can blink an eye so im basically gonna buy one as soon as i getthe money and i suggest you get one too lol : P
They only come with an automoatic with paddles in the us. In japan you can get of with a manual. I personally own this car and I love the auto in this car. It is very responsive and very quick at shifting. Overall I love this car a lot and it's definetly worth getting considering an evo mr starts at 40k.
"Although the Ralliart's turbo is smaller than the Evo, there's almost no turbo lag"
...Because bigger turbos give less lag?
The Ralliart is not too bad but if I was going to spend a large amount of money on a performance Mitsi I would just go all out and get an Evo. Although if I had the option of a new WRX or one of these, I'd take this. I hate the new hatchbacks.
not to be mean, but you guys should drive the car before judging it and saying how good it is. i drove one and it was very sweet and had lots of power. the sterring was also very direct and tight. definetly worth the 10k less than a similar evo mr that base price is aroung 40k..
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
At $27, 500 this car is over priced and too slow, with only 237 horse power. The auto magazines say the same thing. I'm not concerned about inside line video, trying to tell me how great the car is.
The just explained it in the video if you watched it all, if not watch it.
He states that the AWD system was taken right off from the Evo edition and slapped onto this vehicle. this is a pretty big bargin. forget a typical WRX... this is a much better choice.
Too bad it only comes with Dual Clutch Automated... it's fast maybe it is, but you still don't feel like you are driving the car with it... I think manual tranny would still provide funner and overall better experience, only reason WRX might win by sales is manual tranny
Im thinking about getting an 09 Ralli...does anyone know if this can come with a sunroof? I've gotten different answers from different dealerships...we got it priced at $5,000 off sticker...
I was thinking about getting rid of my MKV R32 for this, but the interior sucks and it's slower. Plus it's priced almost as much, I got my R32 for 25k. Eh, the 09 WRX seems like a better deal since it only takes 4.3 to 60.
The 09 has sportstronic shift, and paddle shifters. Everything but the clutch. If you like the stick and clutch, then odds are you may not be happy, but if you don't like the clutch and stick but want the performance factor of a manual, then I can tell you from owning the Ralliart that it is just as good as a manual. There is no lag from shifting, it's actually awesome.
Lets see the video for the new test Edmunds did when it beat the 2009 WRX and they like the SST transmission BETTER than the Audi R8 supercar, now that says a lot!!!
Hopefully Mitsu gets it right for 2010 and puts better tires and fatter wheels on the Ralliart so the Ralliarts badass handling setup can be used to its potential.
I actually just bought a Ralliart. It's NOT a Evo, but it does come close. I actually like the looks, some don't, but I hate Hatch backs. As far as it being automatic. I can speak from saying I learned on a stick and I would love to have a stick, but as far as losing performance, you still have the paddle shifters, and sports shift. You just don't have the clutch. The turbo is smaller, but you still get the kick. You can always talk the price down on these, and they do get better MPG.
Depends on a lot of factors. Odds are your GTS is a clutch, which NO ralliart is a standard, they have the sportstronic shift and the paddle shifters which to me are just as good but some want the whole stick and clutch bit. 500 dollar is not much, depending if you are giving money down you can get it a little lower. If they have already told you 500 under invoice, then go back and say if I walk out today what kind of deal can you give me. They might drop it a few more, or throw in a upgrade

This car is aweful when compared to ALL of it's competitors. This car is 1. Overpriced. 2. Overweight. 3. Underpowered. 4. AUTO-FUCKING-MATIC...how the hell could they make THIS car without even the OPTION of a manual...Horrible move by Mitsu...09 WRX > 09 Lancer Ralliart by a long shot. This is the car that DSMers have been waiting for for YEARS and they screwed it up this bad?!?!
I went to a dealer, the car is worth 35K in my country, where the Evo 9 MR goes for 31K is a much better deal, Another thing, Mitsubishi estimates 235 BHP!!!! Expect the RA to have barely 215 at the wheels, if that. Car is not worth it at all.
yo me queria comprar uno pero esta demasiado caro, pa eso uno se compra una mazdaspeed 3 que sale en $29,000, pero al final me compre un Spec V, por el precio de un carro nuevo no hay nada mas rapido
Why buy thios car? You can buy a brand new camaro 6 cylinder for thousands less than this. This car isn't worth $27,000, by a long shot. They sure have a nerve asking that price. And I'm sure other people watching this video are thinking the same thing I am.
comparing a lancer ralliart to a camaro makes no sense..."Drag" Car vs. "Rally" Car... The two cars are in completely different classes. ...no offense
The car looks sweet, just needs some changes..wheels, rims, needs to be lowerd way to high, and needs to be cheaper dont really think its worth 27 almost 28 grand. I went to Bell Mitsubishi in NJ and didnt like the price to much.
Just test drove it! Really nice. Good power, handles great. A little more road noise than I like and the engine doesn't seem to be that smooth. Yet for 27K, I do think it is a definate bargin.
It's a good base. seems like it needs to be tightened up thats about it. I been watching the skyline and vette videos so that's probably why this seems so slow but it's actually okay!
If I were to get this car, I would change the wheel/tire to something aftermarket. Maybe drop to 17 inch, with a wider tire diameter. Maybe like a 225's instead of the 215. That will improve the handling and braking right there.
personally id still go for vw gti. though its doesent look as cool as the ralliart, gti is lighter has better brakes, handles better and has that german refinement thats makes it soo great. but thats just my personal opinion.
its sad that in about 4 months its not gonna be so great. subaru impreza wrx265 is gonna cost as much as it but is gonna be faster, only problem is that no more automatic transmisson on all wrx's
gotta look man I find them all the time for the most part though the majority are still 20k to 28k blahhh paying for the name which is stupid.When the evo 9 and 10 are out price should have dropped wayy more for 8 ne ways
I WANT THIS CAR!!! they said its to be cheaper than EVO so i would say 28K???? well still ITS WORTH IT i think THE mitsubishi is the one gettin ripped off
An Evo is my middle age dream car. I love evos and have for years. But I dont understand what they are doing with them now. They have been making them heavier and slowing them down. 6.6 seconds from a turbocharged mitsu 4? My buddies N/A 3.0L maxima does it quicker than that. And my spec V just about matches it and its naturally aspirated and front wheel drive. The cornering..well... Its simply amazing, in the ralliart and the evo. But they should be making them faster. Not slower.
I forget where I heard or read it, but I remember someone saying that Subaru was aiming towards a wider audience with this year's WRX, so I'm guessing it might be a bit softer compared to earlier versions.
Either way, the Ralliart looks like a not-so-close attempt at taking on Subaru's WRX. The WRX was lighter, better engineered, produced only slightly less horsepower, and didn't seem to be the product of a raided parts bin. For god's sake, the Ralliart has SUV brakes! Literally!
I agree,that's a good way of saying it. It is a not-so-close attempt at taking on Subaru's WRX. It's shame they couldn't make the Raliart quicker, it has plenty of horsepower. I think they would sell a lot more Raliarts if they could make it as quick as the Subaru, and keep the price where it is now
No, according to the official numbers from Subaru UK the WRX does 0 - 62 MPH in 6,5 seconds.
The WRX STI does 0 - 62 mph in 5,2 seconds, but comparing that to the Ralliart would not be fair. It should be compared to the EVO X which does 0 - 62 mph in 4,7 seconds according to Mitsubishi.
No, those 6.6 0-60's are without a good launch, when you Brake Torque the Ralliart, it will do 0-60 in about 5.5 seconds, some have reported doing it quicker than that, it all depends on the climate conditions.
fuck people shut the fuck up its tur that the american economy is bad but :( kill bush kill bush!! ur paying 4 bucks a gallon because of that fucker!!
No, they aren't "holding all the gas" all our refining is done domestically, which means the "gas" is coming from the US. The CRUDE OIL that GASOLINE IS MADE FROM is being produced my Middle Eastern countries like Saudi Arabia, however, those producers have seen a dramatic decline in production output as their formations have already reached their peak. Clearly, you have no understand of how oil is produced, and as such, you should keep your stupid fucking mouth shut.
If Bush is the cause of escalating oil prices, then who was to blame for the oil shortage decades ago? Do you have an answer for me? Because I'm sure I, and all the other mature, educated people here would LOVE for you to PULL YOUR HEAD OUT OF YOUR ASS and give us the name of the SINGLE PERSON who caused that crisis. Our country has been heading for a steady economic decline for years, and it's not Bush's fault.
stop tech offers there high performance brake pads as replacements and are great cheap upgrades right out of the door.

not to be mean, but you guys should drive the car before judging it and saying how good it is. i drove one and it was very sweet and had lots of power. the sterring was also very direct and tight. definetly worth the 10k less than a similar evo mr that base price is aroung 40k..

At $27, 500 this car is over priced and too slow, with only 237 horse power. The auto magazines say the same thing. I'm not concerned about inside line video, trying to tell me how great the car is.
cougar1233 2 years ago
27,500?????!!!! on the mitsubishi website says 18,350 for a ralliart id where ppl getting there prices from and used ones starting at like 13k

The just explained it in the video if you watched it all, if not watch it.
He states that the AWD system was taken right off from the Evo edition and slapped onto this vehicle. this is a pretty big bargin. forget a typical WRX... this is a much better choice.

This car isn't fast. 0-60mph, in 6.6 seconds. and only 235 horse power. A 6 cylinder altima and a honda accord are faster, for crying out loud.

Actually, it is, these guys didn't Brake Torque the car, this car will hit 0-60 in 5.3 seconds with a proper Brake Torque launch.

Too bad it only comes with Dual Clutch Automated... it's fast maybe it is, but you still don't feel like you are driving the car with it... I think manual tranny would still provide funner and overall better experience, only reason WRX might win by sales is manual tranny

herky303 3 years ago
The 09 has sportstronic shift, and paddle shifters. Everything but the clutch. If you like the stick and clutch, then odds are you may not be happy, but if you don't like the clutch and stick but want the performance factor of a manual, then I can tell you from owning the Ralliart that it is just as good as a manual. There is no lag from shifting, it's actually awesome.

Hopefully Mitsu gets it right for 2010 and puts better tires and fatter wheels on the Ralliart so the Ralliarts badass handling setup can be used to its potential.

I actually just bought a Ralliart. It's NOT a Evo, but it does come close. I actually like the looks, some don't, but I hate Hatch backs. As far as it being automatic. I can speak from saying I learned on a stick and I would love to have a stick, but as far as losing performance, you still have the paddle shifters, and sports shift. You just don't have the clutch. The turbo is smaller, but you still get the kick. You can always talk the price down on these, and they do get better MPG.

Ralliart210 3 years ago

MRJARDIM 3 years ago
Depends on a lot of factors. Odds are your GTS is a clutch, which NO ralliart is a standard, they have the sportstronic shift and the paddle shifters which to me are just as good but some want the whole stick and clutch bit. 500 dollar is not much, depending if you are giving money down you can get it a little lower. If they have already told you 500 under invoice, then go back and say if I walk out today what kind of deal can you give me. They might drop it a few more, or throw in a upgrade

Why buy thios car? You can buy a brand new camaro 6 cylinder for thousands less than this. This car isn't worth $27,000, by a long shot. They sure have a nerve asking that price. And I'm sure other people watching this video are thinking the same thing I am.

If I were to get this car, I would change the wheel/tire to something aftermarket. Maybe drop to 17 inch, with a wider tire diameter. Maybe like a 225's instead of the 215. That will improve the handling and braking right there.

PULSE88 3 years ago
An Evo is my middle age dream car. I love evos and have for years. But I dont understand what they are doing with them now. They have been making them heavier and slowing them down. 6.6 seconds from a turbocharged mitsu 4? My buddies N/A 3.0L maxima does it quicker than that. And my spec V just about matches it and its naturally aspirated and front wheel drive. The cornering..well... Its simply amazing, in the ralliart and the evo. But they should be making them faster. Not slower.

The reviewer says the 2009 Mitsubishi Raliart competes with the Suburu WRX.
I don't agree with that.
I don't have anything against the Raliart, I mean it's nice looking car. I wish it was faster. I would consider buying it, if it was.
The Raliart does 0-60 mph in 6.6 seconds. The Suburu WRX does 0-60mph in 6 seconds or a little less.
In my opinion, that's a sizeable difference difference between 2 new stock cars.
And people will take that into consideration
cougar1233 3 years ago
I forget where I heard or read it, but I remember someone saying that Subaru was aiming towards a wider audience with this year's WRX, so I'm guessing it might be a bit softer compared to earlier versions.
Either way, the Ralliart looks like a not-so-close attempt at taking on Subaru's WRX. The WRX was lighter, better engineered, produced only slightly less horsepower, and didn't seem to be the product of a raided parts bin. For god's sake, the Ralliart has SUV brakes! Literally!
ShortySIG552 3 years ago
I agree,that's a good way of saying it. It is a not-so-close attempt at taking on Subaru's WRX. It's shame they couldn't make the Raliart quicker, it has plenty of horsepower. I think they would sell a lot more Raliarts if they could make it as quick as the Subaru, and keep the price where it is now
cougar1233 3 years ago
Thanks! I'm right for once! : D
ShortySIG552 3 years ago
No, according to the official numbers from Subaru UK the WRX does 0 - 62 MPH in 6,5 seconds.
The WRX STI does 0 - 62 mph in 5,2 seconds, but comparing that to the Ralliart would not be fair. It should be compared to the EVO X which does 0 - 62 mph in 4,7 seconds according to Mitsubishi.
pilskadden 3 years ago
No, those 6.6 0-60's are without a good launch, when you Brake Torque the Ralliart, it will do 0-60 in about 5.5 seconds, some have reported doing it quicker than that, it all depends on the climate conditions.

hkpopfan4lif3 3 years ago
No, they aren't "holding all the gas" all our refining is done domestically, which means the "gas" is coming from the US. The CRUDE OIL that GASOLINE IS MADE FROM is being produced my Middle Eastern countries like Saudi Arabia, however, those producers have seen a dramatic decline in production output as their formations have already reached their peak. Clearly, you have no understand of how oil is produced, and as such, you should keep your stupid fucking mouth shut.
The end.
ShortySIG552 3 years ago
If Bush is the cause of escalating oil prices, then who was to blame for the oil shortage decades ago? Do you have an answer for me? Because I'm sure I, and all the other mature, educated people here would LOVE for you to PULL YOUR HEAD OUT OF YOUR ASS and give us the name of the SINGLE PERSON who caused that crisis. Our country has been heading for a steady economic decline for years, and it's not Bush's fault.
