A Good Car deserves a Good Owner, Mechanic

Exterior Outstanding and Attention Grabber - Just stands out of the crowd. Not too outdated nor too futuristic. Suits the character. It can suit both roles of a formal car as well as a sporty car.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Simple, Elegant and Compact.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

Engine Performance: With 400K kms life of the engine its one of the best 

Fuel Economy: I get about 20 on highways and 14-15 in the city (based on the traffic)

Gearbox is aweesome.

Ride Quality & Handling Nothing to beat it.

Final Words Please remember - Make sure your MECHANIC knows what he/she is doing. Ensure that you understand too !!! Right now nothing that I can think of, when most cars today sell high end features like OVRM's and Blutetooth and so on - Make a choice - Do you want a very Hi-Fi car that comes with gadegetry or a powerfull car that enhances the sheer driving pleasure and keeps you in good spirits and makes you want to drive more. If Bluetooth, Video players and so on are your choice then there are others for that :) If you personally ask me - most cars that sell features in the Hi-End variants of their cars already are built into the Lancer - Except that the Lancer focusses more on the Drive than other drudgery

Areas of improvement Nothing that I can think of as a car per-se.

Just EverythingNo AirBags, and ABS (The car doesn't need it anyways)
