  New Mitshu Sport - 2003 Mitsubishi Montero Sport
  By Soderholm - January 6 - 10:00 am

  This vehicle is a sporty yet not too soft of a ride. The sound system and power sunroof are wonderful features! The engine is a bit of a putz but is quiet overall. There is sufficient leg room in the rear seat for passengers and enough room in the back for hauling "stuff". Great car!!

  Great SUV - 2001 Mitsubishi Montero Sport
  By Missy - December 30 - 7:53 pm

  Bought this car used with 36,000 miles 4 years ago. It has been a great car, fun to drive, easy to manuever around. Good in snow, although a little light. Threw in sandbags for better traction last year. Didnt have any issues til the last 10k miles or so, but now have replaced 3 of the 4 O2 sensors, had an oil leak that resulted in replaced valve cover gaskets, and just replaced timing belt. Replaced the shocks at 45000 or so, rode like a different vehicle! Added a 2" OEM lift. Im sure this is all regular stuff. Still would buy it again if I had the chance. Mileage is about 18 in the city.

  Dont miss out - 2002 Mitsubishi Montero Sport
  By Good buy - December 24 - 2:00 am

  We bought this vehicle not expecting to keep it. Drive it a year or 2 and then move on. But this car has been excellent!!! It rides great and the AWD version is incredible in snowy conditions. I can verify this since we live in the country and have to travel a few miles on snow covered gravel roads. This vehicle is very reliable and fun to drive. If you can get your hands on one of these, then you should go for it!

  good to the last drop - 2003 Mitsubishi Montero Sport
  By kgb108 - December 19 - 2:00 am

  I like this SUV, its comfortable, fun to drive, looks good, runs good. Handles the curves better than any other truck or SUV ive ever driven. And when it snows...no problem at all. The ABS have saved my a** a few times and the AWD can handle the worst weather better than anything else Ive ever seen.

  Lemon - 1999 Mitsubishi Montero Sport
  By eplenge - December 11 - 6:33 pm

  I hate this car. I have had it in the shop every three months since I bought it for everything from warped brake rotors, dead batteries, bad alternator, transmission leaks, torque converter rumble, NEW TRANSMISSION AT 44,000, broken seat heaters, broken thermostat, you name it. The interior is not comfortable and the seats are bolted on with blatantly visible hardware, and the console space is so poorly designed that you cannot have a drink in the cup holder and change the radio at the same time. The cargo compartments under the floor in the back are about all I can say good about this car. I traded up and OUT of Mitsubishi.

  Great Purchase - 2001 Mitsubishi Montero Sport
  By E. Henderson - December 5 - 2:40 pm

  I purchased my SUV new as a lease in 2001. After my lease was up, I decided to purchase the truck. It was the best decision I have made on an automobile. I have kept up with the maintenance since day one. I have not had any problems, except the battery. I currently have 113,000 miles as of today 08/04/09. It only gets about 17mpg city, but besides the gas mileage, I really like my automobile.

  Montero Sport, 2000 LS 4WD - 2000 Mitsubishi Montero Sport
  By chris221 - December 5 - 2:00 am

  Bought in fall of 2000, got the 0-0-0 financing deal (not such a good deal) then went way upside down on the loan vs value. Sold the 88 Suburban after new rear diff., tranny and engine...what a piece of junk! Anyway, the Montero Sport is awesome, rides like a dream, and has been 100% dependable. No repairs after 51,000 miles. MPG has been very good, even towing 16 foot fishing boat. Tranny is a little weird when cold. Only bad experience was when a "quick lube" service accidentally drained a few quarts of tranny fluid, and "forgot" to replace it! The local Mitsu dealer does a much better job on maintenance.

  Excellent Family Vehicle - 2002 Mitsubishi Montero Sport
  By xochimahuac - November 15 - 5:20 am

  We bought this SUV a month before having our first baby and we love it. It has a huge trunk to put everything we need to travel with the baby, and it is quite comfortable. It hasnt had any problems and the body style and alloys make it look very nice.

  My 3.5XS rocks! - 2001 Mitsubishi Montero Sport
  By Macadamia2 - October 22 - 2:00 am

  I was surprised when I saw the (currently) low 7.2 rating. Ive had my MS 2 years now and love it more than ever. I have yet to see another SUV (except for a much more expensive Cadillac Escalade) that I think is sexier or cooler-looking!

  Sweet - 2003 Mitsubishi Montero Sport
  By Phillygator - October 17 - 10:00 am

  We really enjoy our new Montero Sport. We traded our Nissan Altima for it and now I will never buy a sedan again. Its fun to drive in that it has good power for a big truck and the ride is surprisingly smooth. I would recommend the bigger engine (3.5 L vs. 3.0 L).
