Hi everyone, I'm Phil and I got my new manual Lancer MY11 SX about six weeks ago and have been trawling the forums ever since and deepening my knowledge on this awesome car!

A couple of days ago I took the car for its first real cruise. Because I live on the Sunshine Coast I have the beautiful hinterland to drive through, so I spent a day doing the twistiest roads I could fine!

I couldn't believe how good the car was. The handling, the acceleration after dropping down a gear for when you're overtaking, the ride at high and low speeds...just awesome. I love it. Here's a map of where I went - I highly recommend it. Some of the most beautiful views pop up all over the place.

And a few photos...
