Used 2002 Mitsubishi Montero Sport Consumer Reviews
Excellent Choice
Sure there are lots of SUV's to choose from, but no other manufacturer offers the kind of incentive to purchase that Mitsubishi does. I also like the fact that there are (currently) relatively few Montero Sport's on the road (as opposed to the over-abundance of Explorer's & Xterra's...yawn). Additionally, there's plenty of cargo space & passenger room in the rear. It's been said before, the power is not where it needs to be (e,g., the unacceptable lag time when you press the accelerator), but other than that, after four months, I'm still pleased with my decision.
Just Okay
I find this Montero Sport to be just okay. It rides rough, even with new tires and alignment. It is very noisy with the back windows down at speeds greater than 35 mph. The V6 engine is ok, but it does not have much power. Also, the back seat doesn't have much room. I bought it for traveling with the kids, but am very disappointed.

It;s okay
It's a cute car. The interior REALLY REALLY needs some work though. It's very basic.
Great truck
This is a well-built, powerful, comfortable vehicle. It has a huge cargo area, especially with the seats folded. It is a very comfortable highway cruiser yet remains very capable off road. It gets gets good mileage for a 2 ton truck.
Do your home work on this one
I love my truck but there is one glaring fault. 26K NEW and the resell value has deminished very quickly. Unless you plan on keeping the vehicle for 5 years or for its life you will be upside down in what you owe and what it is worth in six seconds flat even with a reasonable down payment. All in all i enjoy the vehicle but dont feel comfortable with the decision because of the resell value. Do your home work and make sure you will be keeping this for the long haul.
