Thread: 2015 Mitsu Outlander Sport...the Wife Mobile...that I'm going to mod anyways

So...a few weeks ago, I was going to flush the coolant on my car and the drain plug decided it had had enough and it shattered in my hand. Pissed to all hell, I call up my dad and said "let's go look at some cars." Go up to Clifton Park to a Mitsubishi dealer...I've always like the Lancer Evo X. I have wanted one for a long time, but only 2 were manual and didn't have the options I would like and the rest were automatics...on top of the $40k price tag some of these were bringing in.

Well as we are about to leave my father goes off wandering as old men do and he says "what do you think of this?" Open the door, hey this thing is pretty nicely equipped...and what is the price...no ****. Take it for a test drive...the little 2.0L is a little gutless but it gets the job done, the 2.4 would have been nice but the deal was on this thing (The ES models took out too much equipment, the SE should come in 2.4 only IMO but the GT is king of castle now and the price gets up there fast). Get back to the Dealer and call the wife "Hey can you come up to Clifton Park?" She gets there, loves the color, she tests drives it, loves it more, shake some hands, 0% financing, and we bring it home.

Her old car
2009 Hyundai Accident GS 3 door
34,000 miles
Owned since new
YELLOW

The new whip
2015 Mitsu Outlander Sport
2.0L
Leather, heated seats, heated mirrors, no Nav, smartkey keyless, no Rockford fosgate (not a loss, because the stock system is actually pretty decent) HID Headlights
Thing does 0-60 in around 8 seconds
Gets 25mpg tooting around city and does 30-32mpg on the highway.







I already modded it. I put in some LED fog lights that I had for my car but didn't like them.



Plans:
-K&N drop in air filter (here today)
-Black vinyl roof wrap
-Black out center bar on grille
-Philips 5000k HID bulbs (TRS)
-LEDs throughout the interior
-Stainless steel brushed door sill guards (bought)
-Stainless steel brushed garnish treatment for the interior (bought)
-Snow tires
-Andros R9 Wheels
-Paint up her calipers
-LED taillights (the ASX style ones)
-Rubber floor mats
-Tint
-Liquid Film the underside of the car every 6 months
-OEM Roof rails

These are the wheels she likes for the whip (so they will be on next spring)


The Saab is fixed and happy, I'm actually getting some body work done to remove any and all rust completely and that car will no longer see winter, hence the snow tires for her and my truck.

I put the K&N filter in last night, going to pick up the Ralliart Snorkel for more airflow.

Why roof racks?

Roof RAILS

There is a difference, because they put them on the upper GT model cars and it looks nice IMO.

Shoulda bought the upper model.

You give me the money and I'll buy the upper model.

I'm still waiting on you paying me the money you owe me from when you told me to buy stuff and said you'd fund it

So now we are even?

Nope..you still owe me

Do accept bits of string?

those wheel look very audi ish should look good on it though.

Was thinking the same thing. TT-RS wheels.

I have done some touches around the car

LEDs, Stainless steel accents

Dave...

Surely I shouldn't need to mention that the dealer sticker should have been removed by now.
