- Practicality
Turns an eye still even though getting common on New Zealand roads. Model shape is 11 years old. Although ours is the newer front model. The wife loves it and I do cause she does.
Bad Points
Bbumpy and noisy on NZ roads. the noise might be due to the tyre wear caused by Japanese concrete roads I have been told, or tyres been deflated for some time I don't know.
General Comments
I imported the Mitsubishi FTO for my wife, she loves it. Mechanically and electrically sound and don't see anything going wrong in the near future. It seems to be heavy, which might be due to extra stengthening. No problems with inner space, wife says it great out on the motorway where she can open it up, and good on the hills. She drives faster than me, they say love is blind my wife has only good things to say about her FTO model GX

An update on the Mitsubishi FTP, owned for 1.5 years... It's still going strong. It hasn't missed a beat. New tyres have certainly made it quieter on New Zealand roads. Mileage up to 90km. It's still just got factory mags on it, which are not that great. I would like to get flashy ones, but it's not my car, it's the wife's.
I like driving it now, but I'm asking the wife to sell it and get a later car. She still wants it, so that's good for me. GX auto 5 speed - great on fuel economy.
