2006 Mitsubishi Eclipse Ralliart Concept
November 2, 2004, Las Vegas – Along with the unveiling of several Ralliart concept vehicles, Mitsubishi highlighted its fifth consecutive year as an exhibitor at the SEMA show with this RalliArt prepared Eclipse.
Ralliart is the motorsports arm of Mitsubishi Motors Corporation. Worldwide, Ralliart vehicles feature enhanced performance, specialty equipment and sporty styling elements, such as more powerful engines, sport-tuned suspensions as well as special fascia and styling treatments.
The Mitsubishi Galant Ralliart concept sits on carbon fiber Racing Hart F10 wheels wrapped in 245/40/19 Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3 tires. The new car also includes Ralliart exhaust, as well as a custom cold air intake system and coilover springs suspension from Road Race Engineering. A rear stabilizer bar, front and rear strut braces, and Brembo’s 4-piston brake kit (front) and custom cross-drilled rotors (back) complete the mechanical modifications.
Regarding the Galant Ralliart concept exterior, PIAA driving lamps, show car-quality paint, a metal mesh grille with Ralliart logo, as well as custom-integrated rear spoiler, front and rear fascia and side skirt, immediately make it clear that this is a special ride. The Galant Ralliart concept also features a custom interior, including coordinated carpeting and leather. Comfort and appearance are enhanced with Recaro(R) front driver and passenger seats, Ralliart shift knob, and Logitech driving simulator steering wheel and pedal set.
