Awesome, dependable car

Took a chance when I brought this car brand new in 2001, very much a Honda/Toyota lover because of their reliability. I have been more than happy with this car - very little has gone wrong with it and I am almost at 197,000 miles!!! This thing drives great, with so many miles still gets around 35 mpg!!! When this car finally dies I will most likely get another Mitsubishi.

I paid 15,500 for my O-Z (with the $500 college rebate=$15,000). What Civic, Focus, Sentra, and/or Corrolla can you get at that price with the 0-Z's extras and all around looks. Secondly, the car is a compact car. If you add more horsepower then it loses its purpose-a good, fun, affordable, attractive fuel efficient car. Of course we all want more horses under that hood. So just order the parts and put it in-problem solved! This car is totally worth the money and then some. Compare it to the top three in it's class, and you'll see how it by far surpasses the exterior/interior design and amenities that lack in its competitors for the same price.

AWESOME AND LOV'N IT

I just purchased this car and I love it. I test drove many other cars in its' class and nothing compared. I love the "boxy" styling like rally cars and I think the car handles like a dream. I am getting on average 30mpg with the 5- speed stick. The pickup is impressive for only 120hp while getting the 30mpg. I don't drive it easy either I'm going at least 70-80 on the highways to work and city traffic, let just say duck-and- weave. The car is agile and very quick around corners. I've taken corners at high speeds and no tire squeel. Over all for what the car is, it is a 10, nothing added nothing subtracted as it comes.

What's with the performance complaints?

OK, granted that I wasn't looking for a sports car when I purchased my OZ, but I'm still not sure where performance complaints are coming from. When compared to the other compact cars that I owned in the past (a '93 Sentra and '87 Horizon), my Lancer is just flat out more fun and a better performer. Add to that much better fuel economy (along with the other two) than the truck I traded for it ('96 Nissan Kingcab SE), and that's a recipe for an excellent compact transport.

Lancer OZ rocks!

My OZ moves pretty fast. I can take corners in excess of 40 mph and the car is very stable. For the amount of money and the deal I got from Mitsubishi, I have no complaints about this car. So, if you're looking for an inexpensive and fun car to drive or race, definitely pick the Lancer-OZ. If you want to learn more about the Lancers, visit the Lancer forums.
