Well I got a promotion at work and figured now would be the time to jump on a new DD. I had the Talon for almost 3 years and with 198k on the ticker now I figured it should be replaced. Anyhow the replacement is a 06 Lancer IX SE.. It has all the options the MR does minus the 6 spd and 0 lift package, so it has the HID's, suede and leather recaros, BBS wheels, aluminum body panels, etc. I love the car already, it handles like you would not believe. Anywho, just thought I would share!

Yea, its kinda big.. Unlike most cars though it is functional.. I was thinking of buying a trunk off of an RS model that doesnt have a wing.. Other than the wing the car is awesome! Thanks for the comments!

Voided warranty FTL!! lol.. if you so much as get snot from a sneeze on the engine the warranty is gone.. The car runs 19-20 psi stock and even in break in it is plenty fast for me for a daily driver.. 300hp FTW!!

Thanks for the comments everyone! I was expecting people to be saying look at that stupid riced out piece of ****, man that looks like garbage, that would better be suited for a boat anchor. I guess people do realize that this is a sports car despite it having 4 doors.. I have never been in any car that handled like this, audis, porsches, mustangs, camaros, you name it. And the funny part is after driving it through all sorts of twisties you get out and realize again that it has 4 doors and a HUGE trunk.. I love the car! But thanks for not bashing it too much!
