Review

Got my new Mitsu 2 days ago and I love it. Test drove 5 other cars that are comparable and this one was the best by far. GOOD JOB MITSUBISHI. Just hope you keep it up. The car has some amazing safety (good for my kids) features and lots of toys. It totally blew away most of the competition and at 6 foot 6 I enjoy the roomy interior. Lots of toys as well... Satellite radio, Blue Tooth, awesome stereo, and sunroof... Excellent warranty which gives me (new father of 2) peace of mind. Sales people were awesome as well. Let the car sell itself. They did not have any theatrics, drama, scripted tag teaming, etc.. Highly recommend the dealership. Great car and again, thanks Mitsubishi.

Favorite Features

Everything. Safety, warranty, toys, handling, etc. Got to see it and drive it to appreciate and understand.

Suggested Improvements

More lights and maybe a steel cage? But all in all this is a great car.

Review

I'm a truck guy, I bought this for my wife because I didn't want a "family" car. I couldn't even think of parking a Corolla, Camry, Sentra or whatever else in my garage. I love the aggressive styling. It's fast, don't get the wrong idea, using the paddle shifters will push you back in the seat and get you to triple digits fairly quick, I mean, after all it is a 4 cyl. We got octane blue, which is great looking in the sun. Fully loaded, every option available. Even had the dealer tint the windows and the car looks even better now! If you're on the fence, go drive one, you will buy!

Favorite Features

Navigation; Rockford Fosgate System stock; aggressive looks; great fuel economy; impressive performance with sportronic shifting.

Suggested Improvements

Interior is lacking the same aggressiveness as the exterior

Review

I have owned the car for about a month now. I got the 5spd manual with the sun/sound package and the navigation. I love the car so far. It has all the technology and features I wanted in a car. I was considering used BMWs, audis, acuras, etc. but when it comes down to it, this is a much more unique car and very fun to drive. I love that all the features and technology will last me at least 4 years of enjoyment while I drive the car too and from work. Some of those used BMWs didnt even have ipod hookups, i can't deal with that, lol. Anyways this is a sick car and is a blast to drive. Great warranty and overall good deal when you compare run of the mill cars like the civic and corolla

Favorite Features

Sound system! Larger 2.4L engine! Slick 5spd manual! Amazing touch screen nav! High quality leather wrapped steering wheel! Exterior styling!

Suggested Improvements

Would be nice if they offered leather, heated seats, and projector HID headlights.

Review

I just purchased the 2009 Lancer GTS with CVT transmission, navigation system, and Rockford Fosgate sound system. The car handles like a dream, is so fun to drive it is unreal, and the fuel economy is great so far. Mitsubishi has developed this car with excellent design inside and out. The tech features are amazing for this price range. I am very happy with this car!

Favorite Features

Sporty design and handling, Rockford Fosgate audio (optional), and the Mitsubishi Multi-media System (optional).

Suggested Improvements

Would like to see lumbar adjustments on seats, otherwise I wouldn't change a thing.

Review

Very satisfied with this car. 28 mpg in mixed driving, 33 hwy. Smooth suspension, very comfortable. Great warranty, great features. Very fun to drive and great looking. The Hondas and Toyotas are ugly. Try one and you'll love it. The CVT transmission just kills the power but it feels very peppy with the manual.

Review

Gorgeous car, gets a lot of attention. Drives very smooth, handles great and I love the response from the breaks. It has a great turning radius as well. This car is definitely not cookie-cutter, you won't see it along with all the Camrys and Civics, it's unique all the way from it's exterior to it's features. Great buy, I couldn't be happier!

Favorite Features

Sunroof, the screen is amazing - navi, Sirius and there are so many ways to configure the Lancer's function with it. FAST key, sound system, bluetooth.

Suggested Improvements

If we're being picky, it could use some lights in the back.

Had an 08 Now 09

Review

Traded in my 08 Lancer GTS for the 09 GTS, this is a much improved Lancer over the year. The HP gain is nice but what really helps is the torque gain. The care will actually pull you from a stop and has the needed thrust when entering the highway.

Favorite Features

The new gauges are easier on the eyes, and the sound and navigation are still top notch.

Suggested Improvements

Slightly better fuel economy although i am averaging about 32 hwy which is better than the 28 listed.

Review

This is the first new car I have ever owned. I have to say I'm very happy. The engine is a great balance between performance and efficiency, the 5 speed is smooth, good brakes, and is LOADED with features. I have an ES with the sun and sound and sport package. I wanted a GTS, but got a good deal, it has everything but the 18" rims and the 2.4L. The interior is minimal, yet attractive and roomy. I love the stereo and steering wheel controls. No other car in its class can compare. I drove an 09 Corolla, for the same price it had 15" hubcaps! And the transmission sucked as it was slooooow. This car is beautiful and has a great warranty. I cant recommend this car enough.

Favorite Features

650 watt stereo, peppy motor with smooth transmission, attractive appearance, nice interior. Also, a great warranty.

Suggested Improvements

My car only came with 16" alloys, they put a 60 series tire on it, it needs a 50 series to make it look nicer. I wish it was a little lighter too, it could get a few more MPGs. I get around 29.5mpg.
