Canadian Ralliart Trim
Hi, guys.
I just went to the Mitsu dealer (Thornhill) and the manager said Ralliart is coming in only 1 trim. And that is "Fully Loaded" . The "Fully Loaded" spec he described is pretty much same as Ralliart Premium + Navi package. His estimated price quoated me is $32,900(MSRP). I'm thinking of placing an order prolly on Tuesday. I wanna hear wat u guys think.
On tuesday, the manager will provide a set date for delievery, set price (MSRP), and the financing rate (so far, he estimated %4.5-5).
wish me luck.

I think that manager is feeding you a load of bs, my dealer showed me the order sheet where they were able to make 3 pre-orders.
there was one that had the navi/premium options "fully loaded".
One with all of the options w/out the navi and one with a few options (not sure which, but I could see it was missing more than the others)
It makes sense for the dealer to only "order" in fully loaded models as they would make more money on each of the sales and likely they'll sell every one that they can get in a for a while, but don't let him bs you in saying that is the only way he can order them.

That would mean your "fully loaded" car is only $1,000 more than the US market "fully loaded" car, and it probably comes with more content (heated seats, mirrors, etc.)
Interesting.

Another thing I was wondering.... Do US Evolution MR's come with Leather recaro's???
Ours have beautiful colored leather/suede recaros and I'm told that the ralliart will be receiving the same treatment, though I have yet to see a pic in any of the review's that show the leather?

US MRs have the leather/suede combo Recaros ( I always use to tell girls to feel between their legs when they got in my old MR. First they would look at me weird, then they would go oohh soft!!! (o_O) LOL ) .
I thought the Ralliart would get the cloth Recaros, but the Leather/Suede ones would be a welcome addition.

Best guess on the Premium Ralliart in Canada would be $38-39k, and it does only come with the navigation system, apparently (in the US they can decide to get that, or not, as a separate option). But hey, if Mitsubishi inexplicably decides to sell them cheaper, I'll be the last to complain :-)

Well, that's a giant load of crap right there -- I have seen the Mitsubishi online ordering system, and watched as the sales manager at my dealership ordered one Ralliart in 'Premium' trim (mine) and another in base trim. Your dealer is almost certainly going to try to sell you the base model (likely MSRP is roughly what he quoted) and claim it's the only one available -- classic "bait and switch" fraud tactic. I'd run screaming if I were you.

If you are thinking of the Recaros, try sitting in an Evo X MR first, because they're not height-adjustable -- the seats in the MR fit me just fine at five foot nine (175 cm), but it was pretty obvious that someone shorter than me or much taller than me (anything much over 6 foot two/190 cm) would be cursing the standard seat height. Apparently not a car for the average woman or short/tall guy, but like I say, try an MR to see if it's an issue -- probably a very subjective call.
