Please see all the info on my car below. If you have any questions at all, please contact me and I will try to answer ASAP. Serious Buyers only. I tried to put everything I could possibly think of below about my car, mods, maintenance, etc. I really don't want to sell it but I can't have two cars anymore! I'd rather see someone else really enjoy the car like I did. All of the photos were taken on 10/15/13 as well as the video. It has a few dents/dings that a typical car with 125k miles would have but honestly nothing major at all.

Debadged Front & Back


White LED interior bulbs


Tinted Back & Rear Windows


RallySport Black Mudflaps


Shorty Antenna


Injen Cold Air Intake (have stock one for you too!)


Aftermarket Grill


HID Headlights/ No DRL Mod (no daytime running lights, & spare HID bulbs)


Front Stabilizer Bar


Angel Eyes on Headlights w/hidden On/Off Switch (the small one on the drivers side seems to be flickering on and off, may need a new converter (costs about $20 to replace)


Blacked out exterior other than tail lights (side markers, etc. blacked out)


Short Throw TWM Shifter (have stock one for you as well)


Eibach Sport Line Lowering Springs (have stock ones for you too as well as receipts/warranty info from Eibach)


The ES Model doesn’t have a Navigation Unit so I hard wired a Garmin as shown in photos. I will leave this in the car since it’s a nice setup! Automatically goes on and off when car starts/turns off. Has a hinge on it so it can be hidden if desired when parking/etc.


Some small interior mod’s (re-wrapped dash in cloth, blacked out some minor things)


Too many other small mod’s to list!


Issues:


The car came equipped with tire pressure monitor sensors. I sold my stock rims and upgraded as shown. The yellow light is on thinking the tires are flat since the new tire/rim setup doesn’t have those sensors. You can buy 4 sensors for about $100 and have a tire shop install them. I did not because it didn’t bother me as I knew exactly the cause and I check my tire pressure on a bi-weekly basis.


Car came equipped with Bluetooth connectivity for Hands Free calling. It isn’t currently working. After reading forums my assumption is it needs a new module located under the dash. Probably about $100ish to fix or cheaper if you are a DIY'er like myself.


Instead of you coming to see the car and not knowing any issues I am trying to wrack my brain to ensure I let you know about any issues I can possibly think of!


Other info I thought was important to tell you:


I am a 30 year old non smoking male and this car is in great shape. It is my daily driver and I always stayed on top of my maintenance. I know buying a car off of EBay requires a lot of trust from the seller and you can be rest assured that I am trying to be as honest as I can.


This was the first car I ever bought brand new and it’s treated me very well and I have done so in return. 99% of the work was done by myself and I have a file of receipts/etc. for you upon pickup. I’d say a good 85% of these miles are highway, I used to work 6 days a week and traveled about 45 miles each way.


Truly the only reason I am selling the Lancer is because I was given an '04 Audi (I need to send a thank you card to my Aunt haha) and I want to try out an AWD Turbo for a NJ winter! So sadly it’s time to sell my Lancer. If you have any questions whatsoever just ask me and I’ll answer ASAP.


I thought it would be cool to take a quick YouTube video for anyone interested in the car. This was done on 10/15/13. Here is the link for an interior/exterior overview (I know I would want to see a video if I were buying a car on eBay again!):

Lexus tops JD Power Vehicle Dependability Study again, Buick bests Toyota

Wed, Feb 25 2015

It shouldn't surprise anyone, but Lexus has once again taken the top spot in JD Power's Vehicle Dependability Study. That'd be the Japanese luxury brand's fourth straight year at the top of table. The big news, though, is the rise of Buick. General Motor's near-premium brand beat out Toyota to take second place, with 110 problems per 100 vehicles compared to Toyota's 111 problems. Lexus owners only reported 89 problems per 100 vehicles. Besides Buick's three-position jump, Scion enjoyed a major improvement, jumping 13 positions from 2014. Ram and Mitsubishi made big gains, as well, moving up 11 and 10 positions, respectively. In terms of individual segments, GM and Toyota both excelled, taking home seven segment awards each. The study wasn't good news for all involved, though. A number of popular automakers finished below the industry average of 147 problems per 100 vehicles, including Subaru, (157PP100), Volkswagen (165PP100), Ford/Hyundai (188PP100 each) and Mini (193PP100). The biggest losers (by a tremendous margin, we might add) were Land Rover and Fiat, recording 258 and 273 problems per 100 vehicles. The next closest brand was Jeep, with 197PP100. While the Vehicle Dependability Study uses the same measurement system as the Initial Quality Survey, the two metrics analyze very different things. The VDS looks at problems experienced by original owners of model year 2012 vehicles over the past 12 months, while the oft-quoted IQS focuses on problems in the first 90 days of new-vehicle ownership. Like the IQS, though, the VDS has a rather broad definition of what a problem is. Because of that, a low score from JD Power is no guarantee of extreme unreliability, so much as just poor design. In this most recent study, the two most reported problems focused on Bluetooth connectivity and the voice-command systems. The former leaves plenty of room for user error due to poor design (particularly true of the Bluetooth systems on the low-scoring Fords, Volkswagens and Subarus), while the second is something JD Power has already confirmed as being universally terrible. That makes means that while these studies are important, they shouldn't be taken as gospel when it comes to automotive reliability.

Bhutan asks Nissan, Mitsubishi for help with massive EV-only plan

Mon, Jul 7 2014

Originally, the somewhat modest plan was to introduce 2,000 electric vehicles to the capital of Bhutan. Then things got bigger when Renault-Nissan CEO Carlos Ghosn paid the country a visit and the Prime Minister of Bhutan, Tshering Tobgay, said his country, "will commit to a program to achieve zero emissions as a nation by a certain target date." Now we're approaching "holy huge" territory. Last week, Tobgay visited Japan to ask Nissan and Mitsubishi for help in possibly replacing every combustion vehicle with an all-electric option. "Gasoline is expensive and unfriendly to the environment." – Bhutan's Prime Minister At the very least, Bhutan wants to make more eco-friendly vehicles available. Tobgay told AsiaNews that, "Gasoline is expensive and unfriendly to the environment. Sustainable transportation will bring citizens happiness," which is something that a country that measures its Gross National Happiness is eager to track. Switching to electric vehicles makes complete sense in Bhutan, since the mountainous Asian nation produces more renewable hydro-electricity than it can use. Ninety-five percent of the zero-emission energy is exported to India, and Bhutan uses the profits to buy fuel from India to then power its vehicles. You can probably figure out for yourself how there's a simpler way to do this. News Source: AsiaNews.it Green Mitsubishi Nissan Green Culture Electric

Renault will split EV from combustion unit, seeks partnerships

Wed, May 25 2022

PARIS — Renault has received several partnership proposals for the combustion engine unit it plans to create alongside one dedicated to electric vehicles and software, two sources familiar with the matter said. Renault plans to separate its electric and conventional car businesses, creating two entities to manage the shift towards fossil-free vehicles. "The group has already received partnership demands" for its internal combustion engine unit, one of the sources said. By bringing in partners on the combustion engine side Renault aims to free up funds to invest in electric vehicles, a technology in which it was a pioneer with Nissan and Mitsubishi, but in which it is now eclipsed by pure players such as Tesla. Renault intends to retain majority ownership of its electric division, which will employ about 10,000 people and which could be bourse-listed via an IPO in the second half of 2023. However, it will only remain a reference shareholder, not a controlling shareholder, of the combustion engine unit, which will have similar staff levels, said two other sources familiar with the plans. One of the sources said Renault may hang on to a 40% stake. Renault declined to comment. The carmaker at a capital market day this autumn will set out its plans for its electric arm based in France and the combustion unit headquartered abroad. That entity will include factories producing engines and gear boxes for gasoline and hybrid cars in Spain, Portugal, Turkey, Romania and Latin America. Among potential partners for its combustion engine business, CEO Luca de Meo in April mentioned Nissan, other automotive groups and long-term investors. De Meo is set to travel to Japan next month to discuss potential Japanese participation in its electric and combustion engine projects. Renault is undergoing a major restructuring aimed at restoring its finances and recently signed partnerships beyond its historical alliances with Nissan, Mitsubishi and Mercedes, such as with China's Geely Automobile Holdings. This month it sold 34% of its South Korean unit to Geely, which owns Volvo Cars and is a shareholder in Mercedes. With Geely, Renault plans to develop hybrid vehicles which will be assembled in its plant in Busan, South Korea. Earnings/Financials Green Mitsubishi Nissan Renault
