Base with a manual transmission is the way to go!

Just bought a brand new 2017 Outlander Sport and I must say that it is truly extraordinary when you consider the price of it. Although it is a relatively small car, it being a compact crossover, it feels incredibly solid and planted while driving. The steering feels great, I honestly thought it was a hydraulic because it's so communicative but no, it's just a really well done electric one. And the steering wheel itself ups the entire value of the car, it feels much nicer than others at this price. Seriously, I get more feeling from this Outlander Sport than new Mercedes and BMWs. Also the manual transmission is the way to go. If you don't know how to drive a manual then learn. It's worth it. The clutch throw is short and it engages near the bottom, where you would expect it to. The shifter is a little long but considering it's an SUV it shouldn't be short and notchy like a sports car. Pretty much the manual ups the useable power of this car because it's always right were you want it instead of having to wait for the CVT. I got everything bone stock and am very happy at all of the options is has. One of the things this car gets dinged for by 'expert reviewers' is that it doesn't hold up to all of the little tech features like push button start. Sorry but I just don't really care about things like that. It has a key fab so... yea, I'm good. All in all, do some research in a 200 mile radius from where you live and find a great deal. Drove 5 hours away to a different state but got 5k off sticker price. Very worth it.

My 2017 Outlander Sport is the first "import" I've ever owned. Probably owned or driven [because of my work] over a hundred different vehicles and this is hands down my favorite. I bought an end-of-the-year base model with the 2.0 and manual 5 speed for $15,000. out the door price. The standard equipment on this car is impressive. Power windows, cruise, stereo with cd player, hands free Bluetooth for phone and that standard Mitsubishi warranty that's second to none. The first new vehicle I ever bought had AM radio as an option to be negotiated…..otherwise, just a blank plug in the dashboard! These cars were assembled in Illinois until late 2015, but moved their operations back to Japan after the U.S plant closed. I had done my research on Mitsubishi before that and thought I was buying an American built car- but, once I took it for a test drive, I knew I was going to buy it regardless. Stable ride, plenty of power with the 5 speed, quiet, nice climate control, great heater, availability of parts should be fine with Nissan being an international partner. They've been making automobiles since 1917 so..... not new to the game. Love driving this car!

I use this as a commuter car driving 100 miles a day, 30 + thousand a year, some of the best money i have ever spent - it has a manual transmission (for comparison purposes) fantastic car
