Not really liking it. At least they went in a better direction than the current generation......for whatever that is worth.

I don't particular care for the exterior OR the interior. Not a great dash.

You're being tricked by the intake manifold runners being carried through on the design of the plastic engine cover. The other bank of cylinders is below the intake manifold.

I think it looks better than the current car but too over styled for me. It would be nice to see the AWD option on this car though.

Ugh.
Bring back the DSM. They should do it up as a 2 door version of the EVO and then offer some shitty base model for volume's sake without it being this porky Monte Carlo wannabe piece of shit. 3.8 liter V6 making 260 horsepower and its FWD? What the **** is that? Did GM design it? What happen to the fun to drive nimble little import sports car? This is going to be a hit with the grandmas.

Default Mitsu folding in the US?

According to the Feb 18 Wall Street Journal, Mitsu is looking for someone to buy their US operations. Speculation is they may be going to pull out of the US market.
