Agreed! Was also mind blown by how he wiped the exterior roof of the car and added anti rust. But at this point I still thought this car was headed to the junkjurd. Luckyliy he wiped of the interior with fluid that smells eucalyptus. Now I can rest assured this car won't be heading to the junkjurd! And this is even while the car drove of in parked. Crazy indeed!

[@zachariah74]

Just not really worth it, especially Lancers like this

[@Ronnie_S]

That's a sweet car! Over here in the U.S., I believe these were called Mirage (which I thought was fitting since these look like Evolution I - III but were economical vehicles instead). These Mirages are rare nowadays and would be considered 'Radwood' cool!

[@DounutCereal]

We had both the hatchback and coupe of these, though the hatchback was the Mirage and the coupe was the Lancer here, same with the generation after this one, by the 2000's the Lancer we got was the same as the rest of the world. I have no idea why Mitsubishi decided to do that for the Aus market but that's what they did

[@aviationaus]

Keep up the great work Nathan!

[@tobinstech8185]

Honestly, I love this car content. Mechanics is something I've always been interested in, so watching car videos is a lot of fun and quite informative!

[@mattm7252]

Yay for more car content!! While we never got these in Canada it was sold in the States as the Mirage / Colt!

[@TeenyMango2312]

I love watching a good Psivewri car review, hope to see even more this year, then last year, I cant wait to see what other cars and bikes and anything else you have in store for us!

[@TheKDKCollector]

Glad to see you upload more car content, mate! This generation of Lancer is one of my favorites, and in Malaysia the one featured in your video is known as the Proton Putra. There’s another version called the Wira which is also a Lancer from this generation but it’s the 4 door sedan version and it has the license plate in between the taillights (you can also get it in hatchback form known as “aeroback”). These are really nice beater cars if you manage to find one in good electromechanical condition and a good price!

[@benlau2045]

Yeah agree, these Aussie Lancers are robust just as the Wiras/Putras here in Malaysia. Having studied in Aus seeing loads of these running ard.

[@soniccdx]

i remember reading somewhere that the Putra kinda in demand among car thieves sometime back , dunno still true or not ..

[@efftee]

We got Protons in the UK as well and the Jumbuck/Arena and Satria GTI have a cult following

[@jun_suzuki42]

Yes Wira/Putra still under one of the hottest list for car thieves in Malaysia 2023.

[@ramonaalol]

Yeah probably one of the underrated car that Proton ever made and now people are trying to get one just for tuning purposes due to the engine. And I heard it even has aftermarket seat and steering wheel from the factory which is cool for mid 90s Proton.

[@eddyboicollins]

As a gamer who is largely interested in both old and modern computers and also a car guy, I would like to see more car restoration content!

[@mrzam1136]

I still maintain this kind of car back here in Malaysia (it is called Proton Wira). Those rusts on the roof are sure to come back. I had to change the whole roof plate.

[@andikoazri]

Putra*

[@otykas]

These are great! I've been watching you for over 2 years now!

[@zaq7856]

I believe in Malaysia, our car company Proton, rebadged that thing to Proton Putra. They also took the Lancer from Mitsubishi I believe and made the Proton Wira. I think the first gen Proton Saga is related to the Lancer aswell.

[@davidshepherd265]

There was also the Proton Jumbuck, basically this car, but as a ute. They made them up until the late 2000's at least.

[@sk1dzzz608]

So some backwater place stole a car and just rebranded it with a dumbass name? Got it

[@sargesagara]

@@sk1dzzz608 It was a joint venture between Proton and Mitsubishi. And well, the Iswara 4WD was a big threat in the rally stages, even to the Lancer Evo 3 then. kzbin.info/www/bejne/e4nVdICqmqubqcU

[@MinTrueno]

@@sk1dzzz608 it's an official car, we didn't steal it, it's an official rebadge from mitsubishi. Our former Prime Minister made proton.. the meaning of putra from our rebrand is "prince", it has an elegant name so why not lol

[@andikoazri]

There was never "Evo III" in Proton's...Its all from a base model Lancer that's why its FWD...I hate when people just ignore the Lancer and called everything an "EVO" just like how people called every Skyline a "GT-R"

My first car was a manual 1999 Mitsubishi Galant. It had airbags (Even side airbags!) and was generally pretty safe car for it's time. It had pretty low kms when i got it, about 180k kms. It had the 2.0l petrol engine (4g63) which was pretty powerful but drank alot of fuel. The car became a moneypit pretty fast as the gearbox literally exploded didn't help at all that i abused it alot. We fixed the gearbox but the rust became too bad for us to handle so i sold it. The gearbox repair was almost as much as the car was worth (1k euros) but i'm happy to say it has been sold to a car enthusiast who has fixed it and is back on the road once again. Great video btw, i love how you have evolved from making computer videos to now making videos of computers and cars. Keep up the good work!

Here in the Philippines, the Lancer GLXi is the top of the line version which is the all-powered trim. Regardless of the variant, all four trims of Lancer have AC from the factory. Unfortunately, Lancers here have only the 4G92 engine for the GLXi variant which is a 1.6 liter. The 1.8 liter 4G93 engine was only used in the Lancer GSR 2-door coupe.

[@sgal5845]

my dad used to have a 1997 Mitsubishi Super Lancer Sedan/Saloon, which was a model based on the older-gen Lancer (same one as yours) but was given the Super badging because Colmobil (the Mitsubishi importer in Israel) had to rid of them for the newer-gen Lancers and Colts, my dad's Super Lancer was also a GLXi trim, with automatic windows, 5-speed manual transmission, but weirdly enough, his car had "fingers" to lock the doors which he could push or pull from his door to lock or unlock all the doors. I miss it very much, perhaps I'll get something similar to his older car, as he now drives a 2010 Lancer he traded in the Super Lancer for. after finding a document on the Ministry of Transport website, turns out that the Super Lancer was taken off the road at the end of 2016. RIP lil fella, hopefully, you're in a better place now...
