I hope you are talking a GXP because a GT can be had far cheaper that an 09 ralli. Coming from a guy who has been watching 08 evo prices for the past few years freakin obsessed with one day having one for winter.

I got my 09 Ralliart in 2010 for 18k. GXP's are still around 29k plus. I've been looking at 2010-11 evos too but I grew up with a 97 vette and camaro with my dad so I want to get a v8 in my life again! Plus I'm a sucker for a 4 door

My god The prices are opposite for us here. Find a GT for a good price.

Can't even find a 08 ralli art round here haha. You either got a hell of a deal or I need to look where you are from if I ever pull the trigger on a evo.

Ralliarts are pretty cheap now if you look at used. They didn't make them in 08 though. Yeah I'm looking for a GT, can get a low mileage one for around 20k.

I'm in Minnesota. We have a pretty damn good mitsu dealer if your looking for evos but you would have to import right?

Importing from the states ain't no hassle but everything in Winnipeg is far overpriced.

Evo 8 and 9 prices are kind of ridiculous (just like 04-07 STi prices).

People still wanting 25k for an almost ten year old car with 80k-100k miles on the clock around here.

Damn right I do. Considering fabbing up own AC kit or just buying Huron/on3 kit and upgrading necessary turbo/parts.




As far as the 09+ Lancer Ralliarts, wouldn't mind one as a DD when my GP blows up.

It's only going to get worse since the Evo lineup has been cut.

They do have a 10 year warranty. Also a very nice car. Look at the price of a brand new one and a 6 year old one for 25k isn't so farfetched.

To put into perspective I just optioned one out and in my area it would be a 54k+ car... I mean it isn't a Cruze there aren't hundreds of thousands of them causing them to depreciate quickly.

I love evos but I can't justify the price for an 06 or under. 08 and up is what I would go for but I'm done with 4 bangers for now. The ralliart will be dd. I keep going back and forth from the g8 or a c6 vette.
