Its terribly sad if you ask me. Mitsubishi had the first Turbocharged ecu tunable successful sports car. The 1982 Mitsubishi Starion was an affordable sports car marvel. The Starion went from RWD to FWD/AWD in the mitsubishi eclipse in 1990 but was a highly respectable sports car till 1999.
If Mitsu would go back to the 90's formula of sports car making, they will instantly become leaders in the tuner segment. The Evo x, while its a great performing car. Has certain traits that limits the consumer buy-ability of this car. The new eclipse has no capability whatsoever and is basically a snazzy grocery getter. Mitsu fell off and it doesn't have to be this way. They know what it takes to make a great performance platform. They,re just not making any real effort to do so. |
