RALLIART INC. (President: Masao Taguchi)exhibited a Lancer Evolution X tuned by Ralliart and a Lancer Evolution X Group N Rally Car (Tarmac Spec) in the RALLIART booth inside the Mitsubishi Motors booth at "Tokyo Auto Salon 2008 with NAPAC", held at Makuhari Messe International Exhibition Hall, Chiba Prefecture from Friday, January 11 to Sunday, January 13. The fans who packed the venue on the final day were also able to see the competition L.S.D. and aerodynamic parts that are currently in the planning and development stage as well as the aluminum wheels that were released on December 20 last year. Special RALLIART goods were also on sale in the booth.

Tokyo Auto Salon is a big event for tuning cars and dressed-up cars, and is held annually in spring. Launched in 1983 in Harumi, Tokyo, when it was called the "1st Exciting Car Show", the event was held this year for the 26th time. A total of 249,132 people visited over the three day period.

Decorated in special RALLIART coloring, the RALLIART booth also displayed two vehicles, a totally tuned Lancer Evolution X tuned by RALLIART and a Lancer Evolution X Group N Rally Car with all the planned and developed sport parts fitted.

The Group N rally car was being exhibited with tarmac specifications for the first time, and its full line-up of competition suspension and brake parts is due to be released after further testing on tarmac.

Many Lancer Evolution users and families with children interested in cars came to see the exhibits and sit in the bright red full bucket driver's seat to check the holding and the feel of the clutch. Children also had fun gripping the steering wheel and gear stick and playing with the moveable parts.

In the RALLIART shop, limited edition die cast Lancer Evolution X toys were very popular and sold out in no time at all. Many fans seemed to be buying the special sport parts, accessories and sunglasses, too.

Among the other displays in the Mitsubishi booth was a race spec Lancer Evolution X, part of the long-awaited Super Taikyu series, and a Colt Ralliart Version R Tuning Car.
