Reader Review of the Week
This week we picked a recent review of the 2007 Mitsubishi Outlander. The compact SUV faced off with the Toyota RAV4 and Honda CR-V in a recent Cars.comparison and held its own against the two major players in the segment. It looks like consumers agree, seeing as we’ve received a few emails from fans of the new model. One more fan is Margrudis of Houston. He delivers a to-the-point review below that is mostly glowing, though he also points out a few minor drawbacks.
“I bought a new XLS this past November and am very pleased so far. I shopped the CR-V and the RAV4, but Mitsubishi had the best features for the price. It has plenty of power and handles well. When you step on the gas, it really launches. The steering is tight and corners like a car. I especially like the built-in Bluetooth feature. A talking car? Are you kidding me? I could do without the paddle shifters and the third-row seating, since I will probably never use them, but they came with the car. The worst thing I have found about the Outlander are the cheap visors. They are way too small and seem like they came off a ’75 Datsun pickup. But I guess you can’t have everything. Overall, I am very happy with my purchase.”
