How far can Mitsubishi fall?
I kinda blew past the graphics on this --- hot to check-out some Rallye-spec hardware, maybe . . . then? --- I see the hood speakers . . .
. . . and the DUB sticker
Jeez --- there goes that brand
VOLKS/Rays Automotive = forged magnesium
Rick.... I love this thread. It is my annual car show...... Worth the price of my renewal alone!
This should be a S Registry outting the LA Car Show hosted by Rick K.
86 Sport Purpose Carrera "O4"
Mitsubishi i-MiEV . . .
And just when I thought things couldn't get any worse . . .
Well --- at least this thing has AWD . . . so there's a little 'heritage' for ya
Remember the EVO? . . . see post #24

Leave it to Dodge . . .
. . . bringing a dump-truck (!) to The Auto Show
Which was something else I noticed about this show . . .
No Ferrari
No Maserati
No Lamborghini
No Bugatti
No Rolls-Royce
Makes this Show feel not-so special . . .
New FIAT 500L . . .
Seems like everybody is trying to build the same car, any more . . . two-box shape, folding seats, hatch-back. Now, just add some sliding doors and voila' . . . there's your mini-van
I kept noticing how high the floors are. Room for batteries, maybe? Definitely small enough
Meanwhile, out in Ram Country . . .
New Viper . . . well, mostly new, anyway
Kinda hard to take pictures of this . . . looks almost like it should be flying over North Korea, or something. LEDs are everywhere, now. Waiting for somebody to start stringing 'em down the sides --- like Christmas lights. (No need to wash . . . shines at the touch of a button)
Wonder what Chris Bangle would make o' this shape
And check-out the rear glass/roof junction
OK --- this is a WOW . . .
. . . and why I come to car shows . . .
Nothing really new or revolutionary going on here --- just Honda doing what it does best . . .
. . . Pulling together a bunch of different stuff --- then distilling all the ingredients into something new + different . . . + fun . . .
Looks like the side-views are showing-up in flat-screen displays flanking the steering-handles (?). Must feel pretty motorpsychlish
Hmmmm. Intended to throw the exhaust note ahead of it for some weird doppler effect?Originally Posted by LongRanger
Or broadcast Mitsu's tragic fall from relevance?
BTW... me likey Honda's little roadster.

Scissor doors? Hard to tell . . . but from the width of the closures? --- this could just be a mock-up
OK --- if I have to drive around in something w/ LEDs + hub-motors + a battery-pack . . . . then let it be this
One Big Question . . .
Hey! --- Porsche! . . .
. . . deisel + hybrid Cayennes? . . .
. . . . really?
(This thing even looks like an AUDI)
Meanwhile . . . back in Ram Country . . .
Like all the colors
Feels like . . . 1970
