The Mitsubishi Lancer GTS is comfortable and spacious indoors. Our usual extended family test drive in the Lancer took 4 adults and a teenager out to dinner in comfort. The trunk is also generous. The basic AM/FM/CD stereo is just fine, as is the automatic climate control, Bluetooth hands-free phone system, and cruise control.

The Mitsubishi Lancer GTS has an optional Navigation and Technology Package, which combines a 30-gigabyte hard drive navigation system with digital music server function, the Mitsubishi Multi-Communication System and the FAST Key entry system. FAST Key is a radio-fob that stays in your pocket or purse and allows you to unlock your car by pulling the handle on either of the front doors or the trunk, and allows you to start the car and drive. My suggestion is, if you’re test-driving Corolla, Civic, Cobalt, Focus, Sentra and Mazda3, you need to test-drive a Lancer before you make a buying decision.

The fourth generation of Mitsubishi Eclipse GS brings their best as a light sports car. In a compact size, Mitsubishi Eclipse was out last summer with 17 inch wheels, double exhaust pipe, 50/50-split-folding rear seats and full power accessories.

The V6 engine still attains its previous model with 2.4 liter V6 engine with 162 horse power, which will reach 20 miles per gallon in the city and 28 miles per gallon on the highway. The 5 speed manual transmission challenges drivers to trigger its best performance. Yet it still offers optional 4 speed automatic transmission.
The GS model also offers comprehensive safety by providing dual bag front air bags, front seat mounted side-impact air bags for passengers’ safety. Speaking of its interior, users do not have to be worried to have a long drive with Eclipse GS. Its modern and stylish dashboard is fully equipped within only a hand reach. The cabin is cozy and the front seats are comfortably covered with leather and the floor mat is very practical for any kind of weather. At night, all electronic instruments will be illuminated to ice blue lamp. 2009 Eclipse is completed with entertainment of The PUNCH® control and Digital Signal Processor (DSP) audio system throughout 9 speakers from Rockford-Fosgate Premium Audio System with SIRIUS® Satellite Radio with 6 months pre-paid subscription, 6-load CD and MP3 player. SIRIUS® Satellite Radio has nearly 200 channels and some of them are commercial free. The compact shape will definitely helpful when taking little roads. Still passengers will be able to enjoy the nature with the sunroof and HID light at night. Fog lamps are standard for this type.

The price is un-debatable. For maximum performance, you will find nothing like this in other sports car.

The first generation of this car reflected the contemporary performance enhancing technologies by Mitsubishi. You will find wheel drive, four wheel steering and also active aerodynamics which feature front and rear spoilers which are automatically adjusted. There is also exhaust which is tunable, and there is electronically control suspension. The second generation tried to revise the front bumper in order to accommodate headlights and projector fog lights. The interior was absolutely redesigned by applying dual air bags. The air conditioning is also revised to promote healthier and more comfortable feeling to the driver and passengers. The production of this second generation was marked with the increasing price on the market so that some gadget from previous generation is omitted.

Within the second generation, you will not find the tunable exhaust or electronically control suspension. The active aerodynamic was also omitted in the next year production. This did not make the price less expensive but just affordable. The sale of Mitsubishi 3000GT has decreased since the purchasing power of the society is decreasing, too. This condition then makes the Mitsubishi to make certain makeover on the exterior such as new front bumper. This step is done as it is used to distinguish this model with the previous one.

In order to stir up more interest, in 2009 the Galant received a restyling, including a new grille, hood, and taillights. These changes are so subtle and nothing striking, thus the new Galant does not look much different than its predecessor.

Inside, the 2009 Mitsubishi Galant provides a stylish, contemporary look. Unfortunately, Galant does suffer from the not-so-high quality materials that just look cheap when compared to the refined looks of its main competitors. Cabin size is quite roomy for five passengers, and the trunk, although a bit small, has a wide opening. Galant does not offer a folding backseat, but it has a pass-through to the 13.3-cubic-foot trunk.

The 2009 Galant is available in four trim levels: ES, Sport Edition, Sport V6 and Ralliart. The front-wheel-drive Galant models offer three engine choices: the ES and Sport Edition models sport a 2.4-liter inline-4 engine that provides 160 horsepower; the Sport V6 is equipped with a 3.8-liter V6 with 230 horsepower; the Ralliart features a 3.8-liter V6 with 258 horsepower. Fuel economy ranges from 20/27 MPG for the four-cylinder trims and 17/25 MPG for the Ralliart.

In summary, the Galant is a powerful and fun family sedan to drive, with smooth ride quality and ideal for daily commutes.
