Hi all,

I want to buy a car. Could someone advise me which car is better. I like LANCER'S design, but my friend suggested to buy only HONDA CIVIC because its very reliable.

- Air Conditioning
- AM/FM Stereo, CD Player
- Anti-Lock Brakes

- Power Brakes

Mitsubishi Lancer 2004

Go with the Lancer. Its newer, less km's, and you like the design better. Its your car don't worry about your friend who thinks Honda civics are the most reliable cars in the world. Just take proper care of the lancer and it will last long too.

It also depends on condition of both cars. So far lancer looks like a nicer deal, based on mileage,year,features. What are the full model names on both? (i.e. Civic LX, Mitsubishi Lancer ...?)

Civic LX and Lancer ES

Civic LX and Lancer ES

i read some reviews online regarding lancer es and it looks like it's a decent car.....i have noticed that people complained about small tires on it. But i doubt civic's LX tires are that much larger, I believe they are 14' and 185 in width.........Lancer ES should have very similar 14' 185 tires.
