2002 Mitsubishi Magna Ralliart Edition review from Australia and New Zealand
"Great performance and quality for money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Absolutely nothing has gone wrong with this car! It is still performing as new, probably since it basically is new with only around 1750km on the clock.
General comments?
The first thing that you notice about this car is the wicked, beefy exhaust note that sounds beautiful inside the cabin.
The climate control (if fitted) is sensational, it is really user friendly and has magnificent air distribution throughout the cabin.
The stereo is also excellent, it has a great balance between performance and security. It has 14 speakers and a 6 in-dash CD player, and is also compatible with additional equipment that you may want to put on, which I found very useful.
The seat are pretty good, developed by the Monash University as are "Recaro" inspired, which ensures the levels of quality.
The only downside inside the cabin would be the arm rests. They are too low and do not really provide good support, I found them really un-ergonomical.
Tiptronic gearbox is a little slow to change up and down, but it gives you full override and stays in the selected gear.
