I’m moving soon and need a reliable vehicle. I want to buy a 2017 Lancer on the anticipation of it being able to drive me 4 miles back and forth daily, and is fairly cheap and moddable. Do these cars have a bad history as lemons or anything like that? Used cars are like used women, you really just can’t say. Unlike women however, I’m hoping I can fix anything wrong with it by throwing money at it. Is that realistic?

Looking for any advice on buying a car that isn’t a $35000 piece of modern shit.
