I like this car...a lot. The Lancer GTS isn't a speed machine, but the sedan's abilities and features are perfectly fit with the needs of most drivers. This is, easily, my favorite small sedan currently on the market.

The looks and handling are very appealing...but I ain't sure about that CVT with 6 shift points.
