New Mitsubishi Lancer and Honda Civic FD

i have owned several Honda's and i am definitely not asian..........lol

Drive did a comparision between the new Lancer and its main rivals. Lancer came third behind the Ford Focus and Mazda 3. It was the quickest car in the group but was let down by its cheap and noisy interior. Oh well, at least its much better than the interior in the previous Lancer lol.

judge by the features, looks like lancer has more than fd
judge by power, i think would be the same even lancer got 2.0 engine.
remember, Honda (VTEC) is unique engine.ie. Land Cruiser 100 got 4.5 V6 engine produce only 165 kw but MDX only 3.5 V6 produce 195Kw.:thumbsup:
judge by model,both looks ok. FD (front + rear) sweet:thumbsup:
Lancer rear end remind me to lexus IS
lancer front end, u can mods to be evo X shark nose (current trend style- evo/GTR/R8)
or may be u want mods FD front end with shark nose looks ???:cool:

Comparissons anyone?

lancer front is pretty sick
but the back is terrible lol...

Indeed the evo front looks mean as a evo should look like. Although the rear looks like something an old man would drive.

But the fd2r is goooooodd all over.. =]

I was very very asshamed today!!! When we stop behind this car in the middle of the rain, my fiance ask "what car is it?" and point to a few car stopped infront of us. and I say "new Lancer" and then we skip passed it, it was an ALFA ROMEO!!!! really looks alike from the back!!!

look at the lap times.
that comparison was so close it was up to the drivers.
Gansan (Kurosawa)was driving the EK4 and that says alot.
Before he retired he was one of the best drivers on Best Motoring.
Cyborg cup cars in Australia managed to do 1:10 around Wakefield park with untouched internals.

i have to say the new lancer is very impressive.
obviously its no FD typeR but we arent comparing that.

lol @ the fd which had sex with a lancer and then got confused and stuck a GTR badge on the front. XD so
