Does it have any go to back up all that show? The last Gen Ralliart is no quicker than my C230 despite it's giant wing and gawdawful yellow colour (most of them I see).
The few times I have taken my car to the track I have run mid 15's to high 15's, the last gen Ralliart is not the quickest in its class but its not that slow. The stock spoiler isn't that huge either, though adding a Evo wing is popular, especially in Canada it seems.
I agree with you about the yellow, its not a very nice colour, mine is the same grey as pictured (not my car though in that pic).
As far as Mitsubishi's reliability, I've only had minor things with my car in the three years I've owned it, the rear sway bar bushings were squeaking and were replaced; and the clips that hold down the stripping on the edge of the windshield weren't holding it completely down and were also replaced. Both times there were TSB's on the problems, and they haven't come back. I'm not sure what long term reliability is like, but since I'm planning on owning this car for atleast another 150k I hope Mitsu's reputation for poorly built cars isn't true.
The new Ralliart definitely does a better job at filling in the gap from the GTS to Evo than the last Gen did. I think it will sell well and now its Subaru's turn to see what they can do with the WRX!
