That car company has a lot to learn in terms of quality of product they sell. They are not the safest automoblie maker in the world either. I would never recommend a Mitsu to anyone. As far as the price goes, check autotrader.ca

I truly wish people would stop talking out of their ass on this site. It's unbelievable how much misinformation there is here. Have you ever owned a Mitsubishi? Or are you going by what every other internet parrot says?
I've owned two turbo talons -- 1G, and 2G, and a mitsubishi galant. I like to think I'm qualified enough to give an opinion. Any modified car will have reliability problems if its not done right, and beaten to s**t -- which unfortunately -- most DSMs are.
Stock for stock, the mitsubishi will win over the focus in EVERY SINGLE QUALITY -- reliability, fit and finish, performance, resale value, handling, features, aftermarket support, all except interior appearance -- i think the Focus takes that hands down.
If you have a chance to get a CLEAN UNMODIFIED UNMOLESTED eclipse -- I STRONGLY recommend jumping on the deal because there are very few left that are in desirable condition.

well how bout you ship one of those down here.
personally I have quite a few buddies with DSM and there all parked right now getting repaired.
Big Cat, He is a member on here and owns a DSM. He will tell you how it is. We want him to bring the car down to the track but he even tells us. The car wont even make it there. Last problem was his seat belt went. I think its back out now. He just set the boost up to 10lbs, added 3" Apexi exhaust.
I love that car. The more reading I do on DSM the more I like them. I been looking at a 98 Talon but the guy is asking to much.
