I'm considering buying a 2009 Mitsubishi Lancer for my second car. I originally had a 2002 Lancer. However, I need a new car because my little putt-putt is at 104,000 miles and is failing. The mitsubishi dealership is willing to give $ 5500 for my 2002 Lancer. I know this is a good deal, but I want a car that's going to last awhile because I drive along distance to my job every day. Plus I heard Honda Civics are good on gas. I know my boyfriend is going to be so pissed with me since we're trying to move down south later on this year.

"if gas mileage is the most important hondas"

-Trust me it is!!!!! I could careless about being stylish. My job is 41 miles away from me. I'm going the auto show A.S.A.P. I paid my first car off 2 years ago.
I have so many memories in that car 😉.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! Don't do it! the 2009 Lancer is a clunker with low maneuverability and should not be used for everyday driving. The Lancer Evo yes but any other Lancer NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! Trust me.

And for everyone who said to choose the Honda Civic or Accord yes. You guys get a cookie.

The Lancers are nice and that is a pretty sweet deal. I don't know much about cars, but of the ones I've had, my Toyota Camry was the most reliable and it ran FORever. I nearly put 300,000 miles on that thing. It would probably still be going if I hadn't totaled it. = /
