Hey maybe MMM is bringing in this model with the price hike!!!!!

2009 Mitsubishi Lancer

if it's a 4b12, i wont mind the extra 6k. :)

the exterior and interior like not much different !!! but if 2.4L really tempting

even if they launch this at 125k, its still a good buy.. but the question remains will they launch the 2.4 version here?

0-100 in 7.5 sec

thats like 2.5 sec faster.........just with extra 400cc and 13hp more (168hp)????

come on you guys - should not give me false hope...*_*

After the fiasco with the 2 liter GT I don't think MMM will bring in the 2.4 liter version so soon. At least not until it irons out its delivery system and sort out the huge backlog of 2 liter GTs.

dun think it will come here lor... so high cc n fc who wan??? plus this 2.4 normally marketed in usa n aust... they brun petrol like they open station :) they buy car by horse not cc like us :)

2.4L Lancer...i dun think MMM will launch it here. 2.4L for C-segment car not sell well here, people prefer 2.4L for Camry, Accord or Galant. In addition, even if the car is introduced here, i think the price diff will be rm20k+, judging frm Accord and Camry 2.0L vs 2.4L...at that level of price diff, people will rather upgrade to camry or accord 2.0L instead of lancer 2.4L.

conclusion, we can stop dreaming of the horse under the hood :) maybe we can try get half cut of it later n transplant to our GT... :)

Bigger capacity doesn't always mean higher FC. It could be quite the opposite some time.

in town it most probably will result higher FC, while on highway, it might gives better FC n it depends on the set up, plus higher road tax...

if they launch this in malaysia... you'll have to wait till 2010 to get the car.

2.4l lancer won't sell well in malaysia.

thought of it also... 2.4 is for bigger car liao.. if me i also jump to camry or new accord if 2.4 as car's bigger unless i'm 5 years younger then i'll maintain 2.4 lancer, small n pack with power :)

I thought Mitsubishi 2.4 engine is reserved for new Perdana 2.4 ? So, Lancer 2.4 will not come la.

mitshubishi does not have any more ties with proton on the engine.

Based on the cc, the power of 168bhp is definately dissapointing. NA 2.4s can go up to 190bhp.

MMC, learn from BMW M series la. Sure many buyers here wan.

like the colour though... would have preferred if our GT/GLS got more colours to choose from...

The website mentioned the 4B12 is the bored version of the 4B11... hmm... does that mean if we bore our 4B11 from 2.0L to 2.4L it would be the 4B12 engine? Cool...

bore it when u need overhaul in future, then put in turbo kit... :) then u will rules part of the road :)

wonder is these high cc lancer will come to our market at limited units as SE :) tat's be cool... big cc underhood :)

2.4 Lancer ... woo

I wan one !

i slurp the power but vomit the fc :) hehe

they should just put up a turbocharged GT as SE and that would be super. Wonder why the 2.4?

they wan NA with big horse big cc... as usual USA burn petrol like it's going to last them forever n ever n ever...

Agreed bro! no one wants a higher CC car with higher road tax and FC when they can have higher HP with lower FC and RT.

Why car will be higher priced ?

Lancer 2.4 GT or
Lancer 2.0 GT-Turbo ?

My guess is 2.4 GT is much cheaper :)

quite true, as the turbine alone is few Ks couple with intercooler and piping and management system.

Alexand,

How much will the 2.4 Lancer GT cost? Indication?

dun think they will be bringing this in la don...

They may not bring it in, but the cost I'm referring to is the AP price. MMM will have it.

Alxand, you privy to such information on AP pricing for the 2.4 model?

hmm.. is the AP price relative to the car they are doing to bring in ar?

Hmmm, for Camry, Accord & Mazda6, the 2.4/2.5L typically is about rm30k higher than the 2.0L...so if MMM launch 2.4L Lancer in mass, i guess the price wud be arnd rm150k...if on limited AP basis, i guess wud be arnd rm160-180k...cannot be more than VW GTi rm199k lah.

For better power, I always prefer turbo/supercharged over bigger NA cc...better broader torque curve. Saturday i watched the old Top Gear on NTV7, saw the EVO8-400 forced Lambo Marchi into tailspin...power!!

Turbo/supercharged or bigger NA cc, which 1 u guys prefer if price is same??

It's look like the engne in Chery V5 Crossroad MPV....if i'm not wrong
