Mitsu is trying to make ugly cars. Harder and harder.

Mitsubishi has completely lost their way.

If it weren't for the Evo, I'd say they might as well close up shop.

Even Nissan has some class...

This is just horrible. Bet it's built on a neon frame the way that ass sticks up.

And they're quite successful. What is it with the wide c-pillars on all the new sedans and the way the rear windows incorporate into it...this Galant, the new Maxima, and the next TL. It really makes the cars look like an American car that your grandparents should be driving.

not saying it looks like it, but it does resemble the 04 TL... C pillar, rear, and the front angles to some extent.

car companies seem to be running short of designers with good taste these days.

Max up front, Intrepid the rest. Interior looks hella cheap. It will make a nice rental car.

wow. wow. supremely fugly. can't believe people are making salaries designing this rolling garbage. It does look like they are trying to copy nissan..but falling way way short... Such an easy thing to make a good looking car yet it seems to allude so many car manufacturers time and again.

Looks kinda like a Pontiac Grand Prix/Bonneville. All it needs now is alot of plastic body cladding to complete the picture. Ugh!

Mitsubishi Gallant Ralliart to Appear in Chicago



Ralliart, Mitsubishi’s in-house motorsports shop — and, since late last year (in the US), aftermarket performance parts supplier — will show off a new Gallant concept car at the Chicago auto show next week. No details on the juiced up sport coupe yet, other than that it’s red and comes straight from Mitsu’s Cypress, California design studio. More to come.
