Hands up as to who's driven one yet? Let me assure you that the Colt Ralliart is quite the surprise package with a nice kick up the pants once the turbo kicks in. Apparently there's some easy power gains to be had in switching from an electronic wastegate to a manually controlled one (Like most turbo's on the market right now, it's seriously detuned from it's full potential). I'm not shocked that the styling is more miss than hit here, it's a Japanese hatch aimed at the more rice end of the market (our first customer was Asian too). The seats are also from the Evo VIII, the IX gets some s****y new leather and alacantra jobbies.

Well that's what matters to those who are buying. I might try and swindle one as a demo later on though so that I can pass it off for something else after a couple of months.

The gearing issue mentioned in that review sounds like a major flaw???
