And everybody thought the 2g was a bubble car!

i agree! that would have been cool if they did put thoses other motors in the 3g.
I like the 2G in the background the best (another way you can tell that that was a concept for the 3g cause why else would there be a 2g in the background if it was a concept for a 4g.

No word on whether or not the sporty Mitsu will continue to offer both four- and six-cylinder powerplants, or if it will return to turbocharged four-bangers.

mabey the 4g63 will make a comeback after all!!!!! :bounce: :bounce:

Well there was a rumor that they were going to put the golden boy of turbo engines back into the beloved eclipse, making the whole thing smaller for rally to keep up with Puegot and Renault in the Rally scene, (see the Mitsu Tarmac concept)... but they instead decided to go back to a 3S style car... I've heard that they may add a "between" sized model... between the lancer and the eclipse... maybe a spinoff of the Tarmac concept.... Ironicly the 4G front end looks A LOT like the Tarmac front end... The EVO is the only car "officially" scheduled to run the 4G63 at all in the near future... too bad... :razz2:

Link didnt work.
it would be great if the put the 4G63 back in, maybe they would fix the crankwalk issue first! LOL the 3g would have been a lot cooler with twin sidemounts, but no they suck. LOL (sorry Keil) well should we get our hopes up about mitsu actually doing us right, or prepare ourselves for another mitsu FLOP! Im not getting my hopes too high for this new one, because without Dimond Star its still not a DSM. I like my car and thats what im gonna STICK with for a while. (No hints.) LOL MUAHAHAHa

Well between Mitsu and Daimler, they're working on another alliance similar to DSM... They're sharing parts with Dodge, Chrysler, Mitsu and HYUNDAI... yes your 4g eclipse folks will be exactly the same as the Hyundai Tiburon... this should be interesting. :razz2:
