Mitsubishi Lancer

Will be launched on the 8th of August.
Rumor has it that the GT spec will see the light of day.
2 liter - 155ps & 199Nm. Yummy.
Price should be around the RM120K range.
Come back on the night of the 8th for more updates.

UPDATE: It has been launched! Price is RM115,980 OTR inclusive of insurance. This car is by far the cheapest CBU from Japan with 5 years warranty & 3 years free maintenance.
