heres the story. an 03 mitsubishi galant has 140 hp and 155 ft lbs torque.
a lancer es has 120 hp with 130 ft lbs torque.

Actually the STi is a "trim" of the Impreza. Same chassis, same body ... what else would you call it if not a "trim".screenname wrote:The Evo is not a "trim" of the Lancer. It is a different car. This is similar to saying the STI is a "trim" package of the Impreza. It's not.eaglecatcher wrote:Yeah, unless you have the higher trims like the evo, then they become AWD.
After all, it is a Subaru Impreza WRX STi ... there is no such thing as a Subaru STi.

I strongly dislike the FWD Lancer. In Vidalia you see them too much and some w*ggers were driving around in one acting all gangsta and crap, so I put 'em in their place when the walked in McDonalds about a week ago.

I just call it a WRX STi, saying the letters when I'm being serious, and "Wrecks Sty" when I'm not.PureLife wrote:Actually the STi is a "trim" of the Impreza.

Mazdaspeed6 is still a trim of a Mazda6. They just turboed the 2.3L and gave it all wheel drive, some nice trim and body aero but underneath it's still a Mazda6. If you want a real example how about the Toyota Corolla and the Toyota Corolla Matrix. Same engines, and platform but completely different bodys.screenname wrote:Okay, bad example. I think the Mazda6/Mazdaspeed6 would fit better.

I guess it is and isn't. its still a lancer, so its technically a trim level of the lancer. It is a whole different animal though, so I guess that is where it could be considered more than a trim level.screenname wrote:The Evo is not a "trim" of the Lancer. It is a different car.
