On the way back from work I passed by Concord Mitsubishi, and sure enough, they had 2 9gs on their lot; a black and silver i4. The dealer said they wouldn't have the V6 or GTS till next month. I thought that the car wans't bad looking, and I think it looks nicer in black. To me it looks a lot better in person than the pictures. It still kinda reminds me of a pontiac/alima/maxima from the front, and to me it has too big of an ass.
The doors were a lot heavier, but felt solid - heck the whole car *looks* heavier. The interior was okay, I did like the ice-blue gauges. The radio was a regular head unit, but the dealer said the GTS head unit *could not* be replaced (well maybe not easily). Back seat is more roomier, and they moved the rear seat trunk access to the middle - it also has cup holders. There is one outlet on the main console, and they moved the second one to inside the middle compartment behind the shifter.
I think the mitsu engineers should put the 9g on a diet, and fix up the nose so it doesn't look like everything else on the road.
I actually like the look of the 04 ralliart lancer better.
