Just enough performance to have fun will driving solo, plus the practical aspect to get approval from the wife.  Finally, living in the snow belt, the AWD seals it.  <br><br>I also agree with the above comment that the Prototype-S looks way better then the 5-Door Impreza.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[DTN]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 4th 2008 7:22PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/04/geneva-2008-mitusbishi-prototype-s/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/04/geneva-2008-mitusbishi-prototype-s/</guid><description><![CDATA[Mitsu doesn't sell a model of any vehicle in the "DS" trim, they used to sell a "DE" model of the sedans, not sure if they still do.<br><br>  I'm wondering if this model will be like Mitsubishi's last attempt to move into a new niche, the 2004 Ralliart SportBack wagon.

They're advertising the Evo X but it's still not for sale here yet.  I'm more than a little pissed because I'm trying to cross-shop an STI and the Evo X MR, but I can't even test drive the Mitsubishi yet.  I can't even test drive the GSR as a "get an idea" drive since IT isn't even out here yet.<br><br>Sad.  Paper launch, anyone?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Braden]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 4th 2008 9:10PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/04/geneva-2008-mitusbishi-prototype-s/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/04/geneva-2008-mitusbishi-prototype-s/</guid><description><![CDATA[Not for sale?  Well, a dealership in Warwick, RI (Jake Kaplan?) has a GSR sitting in the showroom for a $4000 markup (close to $40K all in all).<br><br>The trunk is nearly worthless now though.  I thought it was bad enough in my VIII MR -- heh, it apparently can get worse.<br><br>/wants a Z4 coupe<br>//maybe next year<br>//before it goes away]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Rob Gomes]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 4th 2008 10:53PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/04/geneva-2008-mitusbishi-prototype-s/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/04/geneva-2008-mitusbishi-prototype-s/</guid><description><![CDATA[lol, that blows.

They're telling us the GSR will appear "mid-March" and the MR "not till June."<br><br>Freaking JUNE?!  Arrg.<br><br>I just want to know if the Mitsubishi dual-clutch is going to be as good as all the journalists say.  I quite like the VW DSG but not being able to bounce the limiter is a little annoying, and supposedly Mitsu got it right...<br><br>Also need to check out the cockpit & materials to see if I'd rather put up with a sh*t interior but with TC-SST, or if I should go for the slightly more upmarket STI but have to row my own gears.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Braden]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 5th 2008 11:35AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/04/geneva-2008-mitusbishi-prototype-s/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/04/geneva-2008-mitusbishi-prototype-s/</guid><description><![CDATA[Unfortunately, the steep slope of the hatch kind of limits its utility (cargo), except for the fact you can fold down the back seat and fit a bike or dresser with the hatch open.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[dean]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 4th 2008 9:13PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/04/geneva-2008-mitusbishi-prototype-s/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/04/geneva-2008-mitusbishi-prototype-s/</guid><description><![CDATA[Thank our lucky stars for world cars...if it wasn't for them then US car market would be so unbelievably dull - full of emotionless appliances like Fusion, NA Corolla, etc etc.<br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Noidor]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 4th 2008 10:01PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/04/geneva-2008-mitusbishi-prototype-s/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/04/geneva-2008-mitusbishi-prototype-s/</guid><description><![CDATA[to set you all straight, the base lancer is the DE, mid-grade is the ES, and top-o-the-line is the GTS]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[hammertime]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 4th 2008 10:42PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/04/geneva-2008-mitusbishi-prototype-s/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/04/geneva-2008-mitusbishi-prototype-s/</guid><description><![CDATA[Looks like Mitsubishi might want to get back in the WRC.
