Awesome car. 6 years owned. No issues
I bought my manual lancer se limited edition brand new in 2015. Its 2021 now. Car has 182000 kilometers on it. I've only ever had to replace the back wheel bearings recently, as well as a sway arm link on the drivers side. I remember changing the front brake pads at 92000 kms and they still had about 25 percent tread left. At 182kms, I am just now changing my back brakes. Excellent quality car. I love driving it. Very sharp looking and a real eye catcher. Interior is great as well. Fuel economy is under rated. I was getting 800 kilometers to a tank of gas on the highway driving 120 kmh. wish they never quit making these cars. As my next car would be the same one. Can't go wrong with the lancer. Top quality vehicle in my experience. Only dream they bring it back some day

I understand why they stopped making them
Bought a 2015 lancer brand new because the rebates and discounts were good. 70,000 miles no issues, but not the most refined car. The manual transmission is a little spongy and the interior is lacking. They haven't done a single thing to upgrade the car since 2008. The car is fine, but resale has tanked on them so I'm upside down in it. The dealer always pressured me into unnecessary purchases until I told them off, and now they want nothing to do with me. I wouldn't look past buying one for cheap, but brand new with a warranty not a great deal.

Love my '14 Lancer
Great looking vehicle. Bought mine used last year (2020). Couldn't be happier with it; sporty, handles great, love the simplistic but functional console/dash. A bit of deep roar in the motor I wasn't expecting. And nowhere as fuel efficient as other models in it's class. But I love it because it aint a Civic.

Transmission fluid problem
It did great for 120,000 miles almost. It got to where driving 75 mph for 1 hour was causing the "slow down" light to come on even though the temperature guage never went above half. Google told me it was maybe the gasket drain plug and something about reducing the amount of fluid in it. 2 mechanics couldn't find anything wrong with my car. Having to pull over again and again to let the car rest 15-20 minutes everytime I drove for 1.5 hours was getting difficult. One day I just kept driving at lower speeds for 20 minutes and the transmission fluid burned... Mistake...because changing it can ruin your car. So.... yeah, probably getting a different car.
