2005 - 2007 Mitsubishi Lancer: Is it a good buy for 300k - 350k budget?

Hi guys, any inputs for this model and make? I find it very appealing. I'm looking for a M/T variant and I'm really confused with the GLX, GLXi, GLS variants. Is the GLX version still running on a carb engine?

Really need your inputs, thanks!

The 2005-2007 Lancer has adequate room, ok performance with the manual, pero downside is malakas sa gas ito.

Be reminded that the facelifted model (late 2004) ditched the carb engine - at nawala ang 1.5L engine.

2004 Lancer - check this link from web archive about the variants of the 2005-2007 Lancer.

There is no GLXi variant after year 1999.

Thank you for the link! Now I know GLX is the only manual variant for this gen of the Lancer.

Is it a gas guzzler even tho it's manual? What's the achilles' heel of this model? Still underchassis issues?

I suggest to use the search box tas type mo "Lancer cedia fuel economy" or "Lancer cedia problems"

Happy buying!

For a 350k budget, there are lots of more exciting options you can have instead of the comparatively mundane Cedia Lancer. Performance and gas mileage are just so-so. Nothing to complain about but nothing spectacular either.

For your budget I'd suggest you look at more exciting cars like perhaps a Lynx Ghia M/T or RS or perhaps the ES Civic.
