I'm looking to buy a 2004 Mitsubishi Lancer Ralliart. Are there any cars in its category I could compare it?

with. Oh and does the 04 come turbo charged or is that only in the newer models.|||No...the old Ralliarts were in name only. The newer ones (08?+) have performance similar to the WRX...not close at all...but they tried. Before that they weren't turbocharged. I believe the newer true ralliarts are 2.0 turbo but they have a completely different engine and transmission than their big brother. My guess is that they dialed the boost up on the evo (9.1:1 compression ratio) and dialed it down on the ralliart (I would guess 9.5:1 compression) but I can't find the information.





Still...it's pretty fast but not as fast as a stock cobalt ss turbo.





Compare what? The 04 ralliart? Probably something like a 2.4 cobalt ss, 2.4 saturn ion, subaru impreza (non wrx), acura rsx. Should be around the same in performance. Basically anything with mid-tier DOHC 2.4 engine. It's not a glamorous car to drive.|||Subaru Impreza WRX - arguably a better car..
