Mazdaspeed OR Ralliart
- Thread starter nks_bb
- Start date
Well I test drove a '04 Ralliart with a friend that was looking to get one since he has a '01 Eclipse. Let me tell you when the salesman was telling him all this crap about it and I was looking at in inside and out, i thought(uhm) This is Mitsubish's idea of copying a Speed. And the salesman had the nerve to say that the Ralliart is an Evolution except the brute power and price, YEAH RIGHT DUDE!! He must of been smoking crack to compare an Evo to the Ralliart. But it is an affordable baby Evo but damn why not fork out the extra 8 or so grand for the Evo!
But thats my opinion. And on the test drive.... Well the engine is really loud, you can hear that sucka, and its not a good loud IMHO. The handling is not that bad but nothing like the Speed. The interior is totally trying to be like the MSP since you can see the attempts in seats and accessories(sound system) The outside looks like ass to me. But going from a neutral standpoint, its a decent car with good features but not my cup of tea. I may be a lil bias but who doesnt love their Mazdaspeed

Last time when my friend went to the Mitsubish dealer and check out the Evo.
The salesman know nothing about the car at all. He kept mentioning the movie "2 fast and 2 furious" to try to prove that the Evo kick ass, other than that, he couldn't tell us anything about the car.

LOL.. I always try to make a point to know more then the salesmen when I go to look at cars.... There was one salesmen when I was looking at a STi try to tell me you can adjust the turbo to be on full boost at idle...... salesmen will say anything to get a sale....misbehave said:
Now back on topic. I love my speed and would by another if (God forbid) something happened to mine (less I could afford an evo or sti). My parents like it so much that they are driving 8 hours to buy my brother the last (or one of the last) black speeds in FL.
Edit: I also like the limited edition factor, and I have never seen another one on the road.
Thanks for the replies guys, I knew i was going to get a Pro MSP reply. But i wanted to get information on the MSP anyways. Surprising how the majority here agree that the Mitsu has or has more potential for power. Didn't see that one coming.
Only been on the boards for 2 days and it looks like a mature and knowledgeable crowd. I guess not a lot of the ricers opt for proteges. Thanks for the input andkeep em coming.

nks_bb - check your user control panel under edit options. You can change it to having the newest posts last on a thread. Look under thread display options I believe. Under thread display mode I have mine set at linear oldest first. Not sure if this is it, but try it. Oh Welcome btw! Whatever you decide to get? Enjoy!

Wow, I didnt know Mitsu made a 300zx. (dunno)MLEvo said:
I'm sorry, but the rally art is just the poor mans evo. If you own one you'll just have buyers remorse everytime an evo passes you buy. With that being said, it does look like a pretty good car. In the end you'll be much happier with the speed. Turbocharged, looks good, and is a pretty rare car. Thats the recipe for coolness. Its not a world beater though but I love it.

Have you gotten prices on each car? go between dealerships and talk them down on the price.

The SVT Focus beat the Ralliart in a shootout. 'Nuff said. Maybe when I buy my Ass Lancer I can go beat a Mitsubishi 300zx TT Rotary SVX.shaolin said:
