Great Car, buy it and drive it. Turn key car.

2010 Lancer GTS 2.4 CVT. I changed spark plugs and coils, which gave it a lot more power. Does roughly 30 mpg even around town. 41k miles on it now and seems to run great. ABS ASC sensors do get dirty fairly quickly on these cars. Power wash inside of wheels every so often takes care of that problem. 61 yrs old and I love the car and enjoy driving it. I run the xxxx out of it!

Awesome & Reliable Daily Driver

Great first car, very comfortable and smooth. OK mileage, great AC system, not too quick but definitely not slow. Power windows, Bluetooth, easy to read gauges. Never had an issue with it, Mitsubishi makes great cars.

Super reliable

Still runs perfectly and has never given me any trouble since I bought it new. Pretty zippy, low maintenance, decent gas mileage, big trunk, great for road trips, or around town.

It's a very nice car!

It's a simple car to figure out. There are little bits a features found all around the car that make driving simpler and more fun. One gripe I do have is that the AUX plugin is AUX to RCA, it isn't hard to find it's just a bit odd. Good fuel economy especially when you're on the highway , up to 430 miles on a full tank of gas. Everyone I've run into loves the look of the car. Even though I'm 6' 2" I can still fit in the car and it's comfortable, Just the steering wheel doesn't come in and out it only goes up and down so it's harder to find a comfortable position for the steering wheel sometimes. People also say it's a pretty comfortable car even though legroom is a bit scarse in the back seats but it doesn't seem people are uncomfortable. 128,000 miles and still going strong.

Junk cRs

Had the car for three years. Loved it at first but then noticed that it wasn?t a good as I thought. With 40 thousand miles on it the clutch went then again at 60 after that I put in a after market clutch and it was good again. With hundreds of horrible story on forums and pages of how thee car have shot clutches Mitsubishi did nothing to try and make it right. I spent countless hours on the phone just to be talked to like I was a xxxxxxx. The area manager for New England is a joke with horrible people skills. Finally after months of xxxxxxxx the service manager at Mitsubishi gave me 250 off my next service. Thanks I only just spent almost 4000 in six months on faulty xxxx. I would not recommend this car

7 years

I have owned my 2011 Lancer for over 7 years now! Never had any major problems just a few recalls here and there. I had my transmission oil changed from a local machanic shop and transmission started over heating. I took my Lancer to the dealership to have it changed after that and haven't had the problem since and that was about 3 years ago. Dealership is pricy but I guess it is worth it in the long run. Also when I first purchased I had problems with the air conditioner but my warranty took care of that. Overall I have enjoyed my lancer. Performance could be a little better along with interior design which seems very cheap to me.

Great sporty sedan

The car drove great for may years, soft comfortable inside with paddle shifters and Automatic manual transmission, great gas mileage, reliable and roomy, the trunk was much bigger than expected and back seats drop to create even more room. highly recommend.
