I pay $56/month for the 2 VR-4's...hoping this isn't going to be much more. We bought this from a Subaru Dealership. Most of them are $22,000+, I just wasn't going to pay that...so I searched every day

[Turbo Beast]

[green-lantern]

Holy shit Linda! I've wanted one for a long time. You got to bring it over and let me drive it. :D

[Mikes2nd]

nice price! and nice color... so much better than the Nissan


The Evolution has a 291-horsepower, 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, while the Ralliart picks up a lower-boost, 237-hp version of the same engine. Between the two, we actually like the Ralliart's engine a bit better; it's tuned for stronger low- and mid-rev response. The Evo's engine tends to have a longer turbo lag and delivers its power in a sudden mad rush. In either case, shifts are made either through a five-speed manual, which is good but a bit notchy, or a six-speed automated manual transmission, termed Twin Clutch-SST. The automated gearbox includes Normal and Sport driving modes and though it's a little hesitant in gentle driving, it pulls off snappy shifts like a track pro when you tap into all the power.

Both the Ralliart and Evo come with a sophisticated set of mechanical and electronic systems designed to transmit power smoothly to the pavement, even when the driver isn't using finesse or the conditions aren't ideal. Highlights include Super All-Wheel Control, an Active Center Differential, a helical gear front differential, and Active Yaw Control. Altogether these systems give the 2011 Lancer Evolution and Ralliart tremendous agility, tractability, and poise to rival much more expensive machines from Germany.

do i get the credit for suggesting it? :D

So far I am loving it....I love the fact that there is no key

[vr4chick]

I had a weird feeling about my Jeep...like something was going to happen to it. I'm glad I found this car and got it...even though it means paying 2 car payments for the next 3 months..So I thought. Not sure if they are going to total out my Jeep...If I didn't have the Ralliart, I would be up a creek.

Your car insurance pays for a rental car until you find a replacement.

Your car insurance pays for a rental car until you find a replacement.

Provided you opt in for rental coverage, which is not free and exactly why I don't.

Nice car, Linda. :)

Yeah, the FAST key is pretty sweet, it took me a while to get used to not having it lol.

Nice car, Linda. :)

Jeremy

Why would you have to opt in for a rental car if the accident is not your fault?

[vroom4]

And my favorite part of my new car is the no key thing. I get in other cars to drive and im like WTF i have to get my key out of my pocket?

[HilbillyHomeboy]

Why would you have to opt in for a rental car if the accident is not your fault?

Because that's not how insurance works(most of the time). Typically, your insurance pays your loss, then goes after the person/insurance that hit you. If you don't have a rental rider on your policy, you're paying it out of pocket until your claim gets settled. They're all different, with their own standards of policy.

Most people do have the rental rider because they don't take the time to look at what they're actually paying for. I do, and I get rid of all the stuff I don't need (effectively lowering my rate).

[vroom4]

I didnt even have full coverage when my car got totaled and I got a rental for over a month, payed for by their insurance. Guess my insurance payed it and then went after them? Oh well.

[HilbillyHomeboy]

Ya, it all depends on the insurer. Some will pay it, some won't. In my experience I've always been told no, because I don't elect for rental coverage. Even full coverage when a tree (on city property) fell on my wife's Spyder, they said no.

Very nice!

Congrats!

I have rental car coverage, however, the guys insurance is covering the rental for me. My Jeep won't be done for at least 3 weeks due to a parts shortage. I am also not paying a deductible. My insurance said if the other person insurance wants to handle the claim then let them. The fellow that hit me is taking full responsibility for the accident. I feel bad for him, he's really concerned that he hurt us.

My guess is, they want to be as accommodating as possible. Considering this happened on a hospitals property by one of their workers and they don't want a lawsuit.

[vr4chick]

They, (hospital), had the audacity to ask me for a deposit for the medical bills. I told them that I wouldn't be paying for a dime of it.

[vr4chick]

Very nice!

Thanks, John!
