Mitsubishi was having American market problems.
I just purchased a 2007 Outlander and I'm quite amazed at it's performance
level.
I think it is a super vehicle, so can't understand why Mitsu not competive?
What's the latest word on MMC? Is there still danger of losing it's
American market?
That could bode ill for warranty service etc...right?
I'm a former Daewoo and Renault[USA] owner as well. So go figure. Am I one
of those feller's that PT Barnum talked about?
So what's the beef with Mitsu anyway? |

You can be almost certain that MMC will crash and burn in the up and
coming worldwide recession/depression. They are doing badly in other
markets as well. The sorry cunts will pack up their bags and run back to
Tokyo, most likely leaving scores of workers jobless and in danger of
losing their homes.
I would like to see Mahindra or TATA buy the tooling and production line
facilities and rationalize to just one or two models. One of those models
should be a utility vehicle suitable to carry workers and their shovels,
farmers and their produce etc. As performance is not a high priority it
can be powered by a cow manure methane producer unit.
The other model should be a very low cost single seater car which can be
manufactured cheaply and sold through bicycle shops.

There's a huge supply of Mitsubishi parts in the auto
wreckers of the world. It should be possible to keep
the world's fleet of Mitsushitties going for at least a year. |

Don't think that those Rover-look-alike scrap firms will do nothing but be
absorbed by some chinese producer.
Mahindra simply produces old Land Rover replicas and Tata is lucky if
produces Fiat clones.
Again, Bhagat, tell us what sort of lemon do you drive and get us rid of
you. >> Stay informed about: one born every minute...or smart cookie with present rebat.. |

Hey, weren't we in aus.cars going to do that? If I recall correctly it
was going to have a small block V8 auto as the only driveline option,
RWD, separate chassis, and floor mounted headlight dipper switch.
One of those models

I am performing an unpaid public service. I feel that you don't appreciate
this work, but that is OK.
I don't have an ex-wife, the current one is still operating robustly
thank you, although a re-sleeve will probably be a worthwhile job some
time in the future. >> Stay informed about: one born every minute...or smart cookie with present rebat.. |

Motorcycles have only two wheels. The lack of four wheels would
disenfranchise the elderly and infirm (Mitsubishi's primary target
demographic if you ignore the generation Y wanker demographic). It takes
quite a bit of physical effort to keep a two wheeled vehicle upgright when
parking.
Four wheels handles better and safer than two on wheels as well. >> Stay informed about: one born every minute...or smart cookie with present rebat.. |
