My thoughts on 07 Black Outtie LS 4WD.
1) Bought April 08 $22,000. Added Leather heated seats and rear entertainment system for $2,400. Have sunroof , rockford fossgate and navi
2) Added Sunroof visor, Thule crossbars, cargo mat and mud guards.
3) Average MPG 22 of mostly HWY MPG as expected but will eat alot of gas around the city.
4) Miss from xls Fog lights, bluetooth,12v outlet and auto climate control. Dont miss 3rd row seats and paddle shifts.
5) Holds the road a little better in 4WD vs 2WD although the drive is very nice. Smooth with powerfull acceleration
6) Seats very comfortable, plenty of space (fit 2 labs in the back with ease), sliding back seats great, sliding armrest nice, plenty of cup holders and storage. Little engine noise although some noise via the sunroof. Instrument panel laid out well.
7) Navigation system very poor. $200 Garmin is better as far as POI, directions, no text to speech. No updates available. Sirius radio nice, music server works great
8) so far big problem with antenna. Currently no AM/FM stereo.
9) Not many mitsu dealers near me and 2 of the 3 are junk.
