Its ok, but doesn't hold it's value

This vehicle is alright I would say. It gets me from point one to point two. I just wish this make would continue to hold it's worth.

Surpringly Fast

I am driving this car from past 2 years, purchased new and never had any issues. pros- fast, gear paddle shifter system is very efficient and quick that sets this car apart from its rivals. very sharp to handle. Simple controls, switches provided are only what you will use. cons- noise cabin especially coz of low profile tires. boot is avg size. room to improve interior.

2012 SE lancer 4WD

I got a really good deal on my Lancer SE through mitsubishi HUB dealer,it came with 10yr or 100,000 miles warranty engine and transmission. Its one of the most fun cars I have owned. The steering and handling are great especially when I turn 4wd switch on even wet roads. Brakes work great , they are a life saver. When driving I feel safe in my car it so many air bags and for the price I payed , its not bad at all. Overall good car, the warranty is really great, the safety and handling are gooood, style is awesome, you can even change to a EVO.( the outside)

Rallye Red Lancer

I was the owner of a Mitsubishi Montero Sport & was ready to downsize to a smaller vehicle. No more family cars for us. We had many years of good luck with the Montero so it just made sense to check to see what Mitsubishi had to offer. I had compare prices of other makes/models and decided Mitsubishi's prices were great & the rebates were fantastic. I had checked other dealerships in the area for a better price on the Lancer and took that information with me when we test drove one. This car has heated seats, mirror defrosters, easy to use stereo system & a sporty look. I didn't have to give up my 4WD when I gave up the Montero because the Lancer has it, too. One of my favorite things is when you start up the Lancer it says WELCOME. When you shut it off, it says SEE YOU. So far the only thing I miss is having more car adapters for plugging in chargers. This vehicle only has one. I have decided that I can adjust because this vehicle gets great gas mileage with a 2.4 liter motor.
