Had the car a few months.states 4x4 . couldn't get up hill in snow.couldnt move in small amount of mud in driveway..was thinking 4 wheel drive didn't actually work but brought it to tire place and they said it's probably because dealer gave me garbage tires at this point they were bald.at no point in my probably 5 oil changes did dealer ever tell me my tires were worn.very annoyed.so im 700 dollars in on tires.we will see if it's tires

Not for the enthusiastic

She’s sluggish on takeoff and drives a little stiff. This car won’t win a 1/4 mile drag, but it is a great all around vehicle that offers decent gas milage. I have 2 of these, I enjoy the maneuverability in tight spots and the sporty look that sets it apart from similar style cars. What it lacks in “fun”’ driving it makes up for in “reliability.” The push button 4WD option comes in really handy vs the AWD of it’s larger full wagon version.

I had to get rid of my 2009 lancer ralliart because it needed very expensive repairs. I literally cried. I loved that car. However, I am pregnant and needed something more practical anyways. My old car had two 10" subs in the back and no room for a stroller. I knew this car would not live up to that car since my old car had AWD and a turbo. I like driving fast. I've been pleasantly surprised with the "get up and go" this car has. Not comparing it to my lancer of course. However, a few years ago I had a 2008 Ford Escape and that thing was so slow to go. I haven't been using the paddle shifters, but I might give them a try. I also need to learn better how to really use the CVT transmission. I'm used to a SST transmission. I enjoy the upgrades on this model, but I'll admit that some of them seem kind of random. I would've taken dual climate control over heated heats. I think the HID headlights are pretty nice though and I like the accent of the led lights that are always on. The panoramic glass roof is cool, but it doesn't open for fresh air. So that's another upgrade that I don't really understand. The headlights are adjustable up and down , bluetooth audio, rockford fosgate sound system that includes tweeters and a built in 10" sub in the back, mood lighting on the panoramic roof, rain sensing wipers, chrome accents inside, back up camera. The only thing I feel that I am missing is navigation (which I honestly wouldn't use much) and leather seats. Just putting the stroller in the back takes up a lot of cargo space. I kind of wish it was a little larger back there. I know my Escape had more room in the back. I plan on keeping this car for about 3 years and then getting my race car again. This time it will be a Subaru WRX STI since Mistubishi decided to end the Lancer Evolution. Kind of pissed about that! What's the deal Mistubishi?!
