They also came in AWD, but yeah most of the 3000GT/Stealths outside of the RT and VR4 trim I think were FWD bloated shitboxes.

I really wanted a 380 for the longest time but the awd manual ones are all thrashed

OK, here's my take on mitsu.

They cancelled the fucking lan-evo because it wasn't selling enough and decided to focus on environmentally friendly cars instead. Basically they want to become Japanese Tesla but with hybrids instead of electrics. Now, while it's true the lan-evo wasn't a profit generator, what mitsu doesn't see is that the lan-evo is the flagship of the brand that draws people in in a way no prius can. Mitsu's image in the US at least is still based heavily off of the evo and its rally roots, as such, the brand is seen as an enthusiast alternative to subaru, not a mainstream alternative to toyota. The lan-evo was mitsu's A20 thinkpad: no, it's not a profit generator, but it was the symbol of the brand as well as the last bastion of Mitsubishi's enthusiast past back in the days of the GTO and eclipse. And what makes all this worse is that the Mitsubishi group has the money to push enthusiast cars as well as sensible, high volume cars, but they decide not to and instead cancel the fucking image of a floundering brand.

But I like the logo. The mitsubishi logo is somehow really, really appealing to me for reasons unknown.

the story behind it is neat too

For me the final straw was continuing to use Takata airbag inflators containing non-desiccated ammonium nitrate, whilst there was a open and widely publicized investigation to the lethality of such units.

Not quite the Ford/Firestone level of deaths, but still an act that says "we'll do anything to save a few bucks even if you cunts die"

Aren't they just a Chrysler v6 derivative?

3.8L is a big V6 for a nip car.

ehh 6G7x are fine
its the inline 4s that suck donkey balls
4M40 and 4G64 get warped and cracked heads everywhere
way to easy to overheat
