What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Nissan LEAF

Price of the Nissan LEAF: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2012 4dr Hatch 107-horsepower Electric
1-speed automatic FWD		 With a price in the upper $30k range, the car is very expensive.
2011 4dr Hatch 107-horsepower Electric
1-speed automatic FWD		 Without tax credits it would be far too expensive.

What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Mitsubishi Lancer

Price of the Mitsubishi Lancer: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2011 4dr Sedan 148-horsepower 2.0L I4
6-speed shiftable CVT FWD		 Was a little higher than I wanted but got the Price to where I could go new rather than used. Payments at $200 mo.
2010 4dr Sedan 168-horsepower 2.4L I4
6-speed shiftable CVT FWD		 Thousands less than other cars I looked at with comparable features. Was interested in a car with paddle shifting. Looked at Acura TSX, Lexus IS 250, Mazda 6 and others. Got car for under dealer invoice.
2009 4dr Sedan 168-horsepower 2.4L I4
6-speed shiftable CVT FWD		 Good price for gts with navi 23800 sticker payed 21000 less 1000 rebate
2009 4dr Sedan 168-horsepower 2.4L I4
6-speed shiftable CVT FWD		 Good, got it for 2.5k under MSRP.
2008 4dr Sedan 152-horsepower 2.0L I4
6-speed shiftable CVT FWD		 I paid $19,500 for a fully loaded Lancer GTS - easily beating what that could have cost me in a fully-loaded Civic (with less features).
2005 4dr Sedan 120-horsepower 2.0L I4
5-speed manual FWD		 It had 0% for 5 years and I liked that.
Price of the Mitsubishi Lancer: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2009 4dr Sedan 152-horsepower 2.0L I4
CVT FWD		 At the time Aug. 2009 I paid out the door $30,500 canadian, no flexibility in price negotiations but to be fair it was new to Canada.
2008 4dr Sedan turbocharged 291hp 2.0L I4
5-speed manual AWD		 Nothing, but would of bought instead if I knew they were going to offer 0% financing a month later.
