Does it have the paddle shifters?

I must say, I am intrigued by lancers, my only gripe is that mitsus in general tend to feel very flimsy and light..

Mind you, thats why theyre quick same with Fiats.

If you are looking at the Mazda 3, they lie about the fuel mileage. I have a 2006 5 speed 2.3l sport and I think the window sticker said 32 mpg? The onboard display shows that we are actually getting 10.5l/100kms which works out to about 22.4mpg. It might be partly my fault....it is fun to drive and sporty. They got it right with the zoom-zoom.

No, I's just a regular 5-speed, and when I drive it it feels very tight, and definately doesn't feel flimsy.
