The paint sucks ***. Mitsu will never learn. I've had cars two or three times older with better paint and they were daily drivers that got parked outside. Never have I seen so much oxidation in my life. Seems to happen to all mitsus.

Unless you are under your parents insurance, there is no way. If it is fully under your name and only your name you have to be paying more than that.

I am 19 and they want over 400/month and I have a clean record.

Full coverage for me is 750 a year. $62 a month.. for state farm. And I am 24.




The fact that it has the turning radius of Jupiter..
Stock paint chips.
No mud flaps to protect the side of my car

insurance 200 a month
paint pisses me off the most rock chips and rusting is really stupid
clutch rattles and cant turn off right away because of turbo timer (so sometimes ordering through a drive through sucks)
cant lock my car until it shuts off so im always waiting
idle is all kinds of screwed up and dies all the time with ac on
Tires and rims from previous owner suck
Broke alot when i first got it
Dont like blue in stock recaros
ricer taillights and headlights
Way to many straight guys telling me they have sex with for my car

But i love driving it and beating up on corvettes and having the owners say i have ***** before destroying them with people in my car. 4 door is awesome always driving people around and its comfy to for passengers and myself. All in all its probaly going to be my favorite car i ever own and i dont know if i will buy anything but an evo

Is the car lowered? I'm asking, because my SE is equipped with HIDs. At stock height, there's enough leeway in the adjustment knob to point the lights way high, if that's one's desire.

Those with paint issues may want to stop by the detailing board on this very forum. There are ways to handle some of what was described. My Evo has zero paint chips or any other paint-related issues, and it's not like I slow down for much. In part, it's a matter of knowing how to take care of the paint. It isn't Rocket Science. Anyone can do this. For example, oxidation can be easily removed from the entire car, with minimal effort, in about a half hour from start to finish.

Insurance rates are partially dependent on one's location. In NY, where I live, insurance is expensive all around. I'm in my 40s, no moving violations for the last 14 years, and I pay ~$80/month.

I feel like every body is paying a sh** load for the insurance. I am 28 and I pay about $55 a month for a 04 with Wawanesa in San Diego. I don't have any any accidents or tickets so far....cross my fingers. Wawanesa is a good insurance and I am covered for pretty much every thing in case of a mishap.

Brembos

The paint peeling and fading on my Brembos is what I don't like. I know paint fades over time, but it's terrible that Mitsu won't warranty it.
