09 lancers Options

[jason]

So... ive gone through a ridiculous amount of cars over the past year, through not liking them, stuff breaking (NEVER buy a speed3 EVER!) and other motorists apparently not liking my vehicle and wanting to total it

im currently rockin a charger to drive 92 miles round trip to and from work each day, and the hemi bull**** is killin me with gas.

so... i stumbled upon a descent 09 lancer gts - fully loaded in "wicked white" - 10yr 100k warranty too, with 0% apr and 1500 cash back (cancels out the nav upgrade package)

this is not a ralliart or evo, but it does have the 2.4 168hp 167lb/ft engine - should get ME about 30mpg with my grandma commuting driving

yes i still have the celica, and yes it is/has been undergoing surgery the past while and will be on the road again *hopefully* by summer 2010

so what is everyone's take on the lancer? i like it, which is what matters, but curious about any extra insight anyone may be able to offer (are they gay/girly cars, some maintenance issue i need to worry about, cheap stuff breaking on it, or are they cool cars)

lmao evo's get the that thing going to break comments, i highly doubt someone rolls up in an NA lancer to a bullrun haha - and besides, dsm's only last as long as their drivers let them...

im pretty sure im gonna go through with it, have a descent little list of aftermarket parts to add to it (lights all around, mild cat back and intake, tint) other than that its got everything - just a matter of how bad this credit crunch is gonna hurt my apr for going with a new car =/

and the hemi is nice for ego's and all and simple around town driving, but to drive the car everyday... totally takes away from the niceness of it when you fill it up 3 times a week when i used to be able to go a full week and a half on less gas lol
