2003/04 Allion 240 is pretty old and the 1.5 is a boring car to drive, There are better looking newer vehicles in the market. What about a 2007 mazda Axela or a 2007 Lancer Ex? But they wont be economical as the Alion. If you stretch your budget a little bit more you maybe able to get a 2007 Axio X grade.

If you are hell bent on buying an allion, why not. If you can afford it go for it. End of the day it should be YOUR choice. But stiil it would be a boaring car compared to the Lancer and Axela.

Like everyone says....the Allion is somewhat boring to drive as you don't feel as connected with the car/road or has the crisp handling as some of the other cars that has been proposed.

At the end of the day it is a rather comfy ride with some creature comforts that will get you from A to B without much fuss (or excitement) as long as you find a decent specimen and continue to properly take care of it. Not sure about the 240 series but in the 260 series the 1.8 is somewhat more entertaining to drive as it has a bit more power than the 1.5. I would imagine it would be the same with 240 series. However finding a 1.8 in SL is probably going to be like finding a needle in the hay stack because of the usual reasons and misconceptions of the typical Allion buyers. Also I have seen a few 1.8s with some suspension upgrades and stuff which apparently makes it a bit better (no idea if this is true..never driven one and going only by what the owners have claimed; who might be biased)

As far as I know the main difference between the facelift and pre-facelift versions were mainly cosmetic and a change in accessories/features (some were added and some were made standard, etc..), so nothing technically ground breaking between the two (I think...maybe someone else can clarify ?). As for whether the additional "features" are worth the additional cost..that is totally up to you to decide. Personally I would care less about things like on-the fly fuel consumption meters as I won't have time to be reading those whilst driving (looking at the road and more important gauges like speedo ?...) (okay the facelift's lights look a bit more funkier)

Just a random article I came up with.

<quote> The Lancer on the other hand has a more sportier feel while driving. Once you hit the gas, you can easily listen to the cylinders singing the song of speed in perfect harmony. </quote> And I love that song! Drrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrm!!

Totally agree, unless its a 1.8 I wouldnt pay a premium for some 'feature' like the flower lights.

The 1st gen. facelift didnt get that fuel consumption meter, it came in the 2nd gen. all the way from the beginning. Anyway it gives ridiculous figures
