2007 Mitsubishi Lancer RalliArt review from Costa Rica
"Like we say in Costa Rica: "Es un Chuzo de nave" Possible Translation: "It's an Excellent Car""
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Air conditioning had a high pitch noise after 10000 KM. I took it to the dealership and the problem was in the A/C Filter. It was replaced and now it works just fine.
Noise in the front right tired section. Dealer has not been able to fix it however when I took it to them the sound was not audible. It shows up sometimes so I haven't been able to pin point the real location. I suspect something related to the muffler. However Mitsubishi dealer told me that if something happens they will cover the cost of fixing it.
General comments?
Excellent car.
Engine for a 2.0 Litter it moves well and provide good power. At least better than the BMW 318i I used to have.
Shift-Tronic gear box is excellent. I have the control of a manual transmission and the benefits of an automatic one. I feel of speeding I move to manual and if in a Traffic Jam nothing like an automatic.
I will change the Radio that comes with it for a much better one. Costa Rica dealerships change the radio locally for a low cost Pioneer that doesn't even plays MP3s nor has a Aux in port.
