I received this note from the Mitsubishi dealer that I had purchased my 2005 EVO from, sounds like something to look at!
"The EVO from what we are told is suppose to start around $28,000 for a base model.
Mitusbishi is also producing a Lancer Ralliart (AWD, single turbo) that puts out over 230 HP to compete with the Subaru WRX. This is suppose to start at around $24,000 well equipped and it will be out just before the EVO. "
I agree about buying a new car and not having good weather to enjoy it before it has to sit in a snowbank. Winter in the northeast is not the best time of year to buy a new vehicle (except for a plow truck).
