Even without a turbo, its pretty fun to drive. The naturally aspirated Chrysler engine actually has a little pep to it. Its great to commute to work or cruise around with a friend or a girlfriend. but anymore than that, your friends will have to be legless. as far as reliability goes, its a fairly reliable car. Even if it does break, its dirt cheap to fix. As for MPG, I have seen as high as 30 using premium gas. Things to look out for on this car...... Synchros in the manual trans can start grinding at higher mileage especially if it has never been maintained. Cam sensors are known to fail causing stalling or a no start. Also, the headgaskets were prone to leaking on the back corner near cylinder 4. but due to the age of these cars, most likely it has been taken care of by now. aside from that, its just the usual wear and tear. Hope this helps people. I am basing this off of my personal ownership of these cars and my 12yrs of experience in the automotive field including the 4 yrs I spent in a Chrysler dealer. thank you.

the handling is ok...it is a little loose in the rear,braking and handling are great, has only needed brakes/tires since i bought it, both interior and exterior are cool,gas mileage is great,maintenance is rather easy, and yes it is a blst to drive...not to fast but def not slow

Great car! I would recommend it. I had a lot of mods on it. Neuspeed sway and strut bars, AEM long body cold air intake, Adjustable gas shocks (handled like a dream), 18" brushed aluminum rims, and a 4" catback. it was loud.

The cars alright. It has a lot of potential and mitsubishi engines are really reliable. The clutch is really nice on this car and I'd recommend throwing a short shifter in it. Its kind of on the small side, you can put two people in the back but not comfortably. The engine bay is set up real simple too, perfect if you're looking to do work to it. I like driving it and the car moves if you want it too. Its actually really good on gas and overall fun to drive.

accelerates great, great handling interior is great, needs a hood, bout to put my body kit on 35mpg low maintenanc costs amazingly fun to drive. i love it and would never sell it. it is only going to get better as time goes on
