I see that... I have checked 3 of the 4 dealers online sites, it says they don't have one. But I will call the closest dealer that doesn't have a website and see if they have one.

Problem is, I would rather have the Evo. But that's $38k. I hate that.

It's like owning a Camero RS when you really want the SS.

There are so much aftermarket for the Lancer it's crazy. You could have EVO power levers easily.

See but that's the "me too" aspect I don't like. I could roll up to the car spot friday and see 7 other lancers of various model and year. It's like the gsxr of these car types.

I think your too worried about what others are driving. In the price range your going for you are that a lot of people can reach. The Volvo seems like your best bet in that case.

If not someone else suggested getting a used car that used to be in the $50000+ range that is now at what you want to spend.

I just don't like to be slightly different. I'm very anti-band wagon, on all things.

Anyway, I have thought about that. More expensive car used. But I would hate to have some hood riches used BMW that has never seen an oil change for 20,000 miles. Or some other stupid shit. Plus that requires lots more hunting.

My brother in law just told me he got a job promotion to mechanic complete with assigned work truck. He wants to get rid of his 2010 aveo... trying to get our wives little 16 yr old bro to buy it. He said I could give up and just make his payment. LOL

This is so much cooler than anything else I been looking at! LOL

It looks just like this one

E28 with a turbo kit. car will run you 2k, little more for the conversion. bit more for rims. budget yourself around 10k and you'll have a retarded DD with reliability and power.

But they sold way less of the current Lancer than the one before it.
