Looking to buy 2016 Outlander

Krakker, you sound like me, when I got mine. Even thou I didn't get the 2016 model. I got the 2015 SE S-AWC I really Didn't whant the GT with the V6. I needed the Rebates of the 2015 to eat up my Negitive EQ so I had to stick with the 2015. The only thing I wish I could of gotten on mine was the Sunroof, and the Navigation. But other then that I love the color I got Copper.
The wife already has a 14 model, and after driving both, I can say I'm VERY glad I got the newer model. All that "stuff" they did with chassis bracing, and sound insulation really paid off. This thing seals up like a Lexus GX.
Most of the tech mods just get in the way of the drive. I want to drive the car, I don't want it to drive me. I got 70 miles of mostly open road to take each day. I want to enjoy it..... I miss the turbo, but that don't mean I'm gonna lay back and NOT improve on what I'm driving. For me it's the fun part. anyone can have a car, etc. and drive it. Modding and customizing are my passions. This will just be one more ride that gets the mad scientist out of my head... lol

Having done the Pulley before in the 13 OS, I can attest that it's really a worthwhile improvement.
With your 4B12, you've already got a good mill to start modding for some power. Get busy. lol

According to some other sources, our US Outlander may miss some hardware to enable certain features like auto lock. But again, for the money I paid, I can live with it.
I really wanted a SE S-AWC. But my local dealer could not find one in surrounding area.
2016 model did improve a lot. I also test-drove RAV4 and Nissan Rogue. 2016 Outlander is much quieter. And the acceleration is not worse, if not better, than those two vehicles that have more horse power.

2016 Outlander SE
We've had our 2016 Outlander SE front wheel drive for 6 months and it has been terrific. We drove to Florida and back and were comfortable all the way, even with eight hours of almost steady driving each day. The vehicle is quiet and the 4 cylinder engine is plenty responsive and powerful, while providing great gas mileage. Since we spend the winter in Florida, we carry a lot of stuff back and forth, and we were very pleased at how much we could fit into Mitsy's cargo area. We added one feature that has proven to be worth every cent, and that is the Panasonic touch screen with backup camera. It also has blue tooth and a great sound. We had some complaints about the transmission jerking at certain speeds, but that has been taken care of by the reprogramming that was done as a result of a recall notice. One other glitch is the inaccuracy of the speedometer. It reads about 5 to 7 kilometers per hour faster than it should. I recently asked about this but haven't yet had a response. We are Canadian (thus the kilometers) and with the value of our dollar we paid more than you would in the USA, so I won't quote our purchase price.
