NOOOOOOO the mercedes R class is gone

 

wow Mitsubishi finally got rid of the Eclipse. Such a storied nameplate tarnished in recent years. Shame on Mitsubishi for neglecting it

 

^ I was wondering when Mitsubishi was either going to kill the Eclipse or redesign it. This last model was just a joke compared to the rest!

 

there is this saab 95 that I see in SF with dealer special plates. doesnt look half bad

 

I have not heard of the R class being cancelled here. In fact, it was just facelifted. I don't think MBZ would go through the trouble of releasing a car for only one model year.

 

Yeah I'm saddened by this announcement too as well

 

Mitsubishi stops selling cars now? LOL

 

Mitsu has the lancer now...that seems to be it. LOL

Sad to see some on that list, though none is suprising.

 

I believe we had a thread here on CL with that article. R-Class was supposed to be discontinued here in the states but still available worldwide.

 

You are right, there was and it is.

 

I think it's only a matter of time until Mitsubishi pulls out of the US completely. They don't even cross anyone's mind anymore when deciding on a car purchase.

And what a short life for the HS. Lexus's only true failure. Too bad.

 

Lol, it's funny you say that right now.

My dad and I just purchased a 99 Mitsubishi Montero Sport on Thursday for beating around off road. A decent little SUV, considering it has 275k miles on it. Ran like **** on friday, but we discovered that the coil that fires cylinders 2 and 5 had a loose connection. Now it's a fun little bugger.


But no, I wouldn't buy a new Mitsubishi. Do they still sell electronics here in the US? Our last 2 big screens have been Mitsubishi's. Seems like I don't see them at any of the stores anymore.

 

whatchu talkin' bout. they have the i-MiEV
