off topic rally question

hey guys, this is kinda off topic, but does anybody know what kind of a car the Mitsubishi Charisma GT is? Is that a Lancer with FWD only? (Mirage in the states)?

Except perhaps that it is the Carisma model instead of the Lancer? // Johan

> does anybody know what kind of a car > the Mitsubishi Charisma GT is? Mmmm, I see what you mean. In the showroom the Lancer and Carisma are different cars, but in rallyes they are identical, according to the specs. Some badge swapping going on. It would be the Lancer Evo in disguise, I think. -- Bye, Leo

But don't they run the Carisma in a lower class. What is different between them in the showroom? Thanks for the answer

Look here for the showroom pictures: http://www.mitsubishi-motors.nl/home.htm ...and here for the rallye car(s) specs: http://www.mitsubishi-motors.co.jp/motorsports/99wrc_e/lancer_spec.html -- Bye, Leo

Last year, Mitsubishi choosed to run the Lancer with Tommi Makkinen and the Carisma with R.Burns. In fact, this is the same car but the name is not the same in every countries.

I think it is a Lancer, but that's different to a Mirage here (Australia). A Mirage is a little hatch here. > hey guys, this is kinda off topic, but does anybody know what kind of a car the Mitsubishi > Charisma GT is? Is that a Lancer with FWD only? (Mirage in the states)?
