    So every car has there nick names.
    RSX = DC5
    Integs = DC2 (Depending on the year)
    S2000 = SK2
    M3 = E46
    Civics Hatch = EG
    Civics = EK (Depending on the year)

    And so on.

    I was wondering if the Lancer has any nicknames besides "9GL"

    95 and older G20 = P10

    Thats as much nick names that i can think of so far in any car, ill add more when i can think of more

    most nick names come from chasis codes for the car

    The Worldwide model code/prefix name for the 2008+ Lancer is the "CJ" Lancer.
    i know the previous model (2006-) was called the "CH" Lancer.
