2006 Mitsubishi Lancer User Reviews

2006 Mitsubishi Lancer Ralliart. — I bought this car after checking the competition (over and over) All cars have highs and lows but price was right and it came well loaded. This car is versatile with 4 doors and large trunk. It also caters to the compact sports car owner. It has euro inspired tail lights, it handles like a lowered car yet the ride is bearable. The torque out put of the engine is very impressive @ lower speeds (compared to many imports that may have more horsepower but only useable higher RPM's.) This car is really fun to drive. It has 163hp and same for torque. The gearing is low it really throws you back in 1st/2nd and I rarely take it out of 3rd in the city because @ 50Km's it still takes off. It has a small gas tank and the most I get is 480km's per tank. More like 280km's in the city with a moderate lead foot. I put some low profile tires and rims on mine and it makes it a handfull on uneven roads. This car is relatively easy to maintain and has caused little reason for concern. I've driven the 08' generation and the new Lancer is better equipped (GT) and it's a great looking car but the engine lacks power and sounds tinny. It's a Hyundai,Mitsu,Daimler -Chrysler venture.... chassis and all. I haven't driven the new Evo nor the new Ralliart that's to come but the Price jumps. I prefer the old ralliart that is fun to drive over the similarly priced "bluetooth ready,heated seat,stereo with hard drive, blah blah blah, 08' Lancer". (none were built for 07')

8 — performance - fun to drive handles well with the right tires braking is good acceleration is great mine is manual so it is all in the way you drive and how hard you can push it build quality ok mine needed an trans when i bought it my sycronizers were screwed up apperance sporty but interior could do better cost of ownership not that much good gas milage fun factor it is a fun car to drive if you know how to push the envelope

Primary Use: Commuting to work

Needs One More Gear. — Although this car is front wheel drive there are some options out there to make those front wheels deadly to drive. Not to many companies out there make modifications for it. This car is a middle ground between the evolution and the base lancer. A little higher prices but can be talked down.

Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.)

Sporty Car — Best performance for the 1.6L engine make out 122 hp and amazing stablity & easy handling because of the mitsubishi sport suspension.. And gr8 acceleration coz of the cvt transmission..
