I just started a new job this week flogging off Mitsubishi's for Adelaide's own Agostino Mitsubishi. Selling cars is something I've wanted to do for quite some time and it's interesting that my first opportunity has come with these guys. It has, however allowed me some fresh insight into their products but it hasn't convinced me to sell my Fez yet (see how the Ralliart Colt shapes up first :P)
The oddball award certainly goes to the Colt CVT model. Not only is the CVT something to get your head around but the fully electric power steering is a little unusual too. After having driven one of the new manual models though, I must say it's a real improvement and $2000 cheaper to boot. The real surprise package for me so far is the 380GT. I haven't been able to see myself in a large car for a long time, especially after the Falcon but I've been seduced by leather seating, six stacker, sunroof and a surprisingly good engine note. All I have to do now is to convince the boss to let me borrow an Evo IX...

Awesome! congrats on your new job!
I always think a black 380VRX or GT looks good. If only we can put the 3000GT engine in it........ |

Also of interest, we take delivery on the first Ralliart Colt Turbos soon. They're looking to be pricier than a Polo GTi at this stage though so it could be interesting...
