Yeah, lol. But for the money when I got it 3 years ago it was a good deal to get a car for 16k out the door. I put about 72k in 36m so I drive alot, and so it has been very dependable and handles reasonably well with decent tires.

However, I have always been a Mitsu fanboy. I got my first Mitsu, then another Mitsu, then a Scion, and now I want another Mitsu.

They denting and chipping issue has me worried. Maybe they will upgrade the paint or something for the 09/10 model. I remember a few Mitsu cars had this issue in the earlt 2000's. But it was resolved the next model year, generally.
