Tell me that is not US dollars, a mis-print or a JOKE!

its australian quid or whatever they call their currency. if you read the article it said the current price of an MR was about $56000. which is probably about 36 here. i have been hearing the new evo's will be getting alot closer to $40k here. basically they are going to be getting it priced out of the market for most "tuners" and shooting for more of a BMW type of wide market instead of an enthousiest market.

You'll probably be able to pick up an X MR for around $36,000 (6 months after the stealerships have their new model mark-up parties) if you avoid the big ticket options like the 30 gig NAVI/music storage, sun and sound pkg, etc., etc.
Then you'll be knocking on the door for $40 large.

for that kind of money, 0 to 60 times in the mid 5's is totally unacceptable. I dont give a flying F*** if its AYC makes it drive on one wheel at 2G's on the skidpad.
And that SST is nothing like the DSG if it cant out accelerate a manual.
Looks like the Subaru designers were bargining on the total retardedness of the Mistubishi engineers when the designed the STi

It is a DSG. Mitsu just may be staying honest and not tune the SST car differently which is what VW does.
