Reviews SummaryThe Lancer has been a part of the Mitsubishi lineup for quite some time, and the car was overhauled for the 2007 model year. Now in its ninth generation, Mitsubishi is marketing the car as a compact sport sedan instead of the economy car that we were all thinking. It’s a handsome car with sporting intentions in all trims, but how does it stand up against more established and well-known competitors? | |
Reviews SummaryThe Honda Civic is one of the most popular cars on the market, with good reason. It's economical and efficient, with sharp styling and a high-quality interior. It also brings forth features that have been rarities in its segment, such as available navigation. In short, the Civic elevates the standards for the compact car market. The 2007 model year is part of the eighth generation of the Civic, which was redesigned for the 2006 model year, and carried over the following year. Honda and the Civic's reputation are such that these cars hold their value for years. Even if you pay a bit more than than you would for the average small car price, you’ll be rewarded with a top-notch car that will hold its value well. | |
