Mitsubishi still sells cars in the U.S.? Upgrades or not it still looks like a model two generations late.

I'm just counting the days till their Lancer/EVO sales drop enough to no longer support them in the states.

<sigh> No matter what they do to that troll of a vehicle it still looks like an old shoe. And what exactly is "premium fabric seating"? A SOHC 3.8L V6 with 225 hp. This would barely have been acceptable in 2001. But we're approaching 2011. This engine is disgracefully underpowered and notoriously fuel inefficient. And a 4 speed? Oh come on...

I didn't even look at the engine specs but only putting 225hp from a brute 3.8L is something expected of Jeep. At least until they start tossing the Pentastar V6 into the Liberty.

Heck the Hyundai Sonata gets 200hp from a 4 cylinder. For a company that embraced turbo tech years ago they have seriously slipped. Even the new Lancer sales have been faltering. I won't even start on the hatchback version with limited options and ridiculous price tag.

LACMAN....I have a 57" Mitsubishi DLP. Awesome picture for gaming, and no worries about burn-in. The projector bulb puts out some serious heat though.

@sportsbike80 I don't have to step down to your level and try to insult you, I am sorry the truth hurt you so much for you to have to take that direction. It seams either you don't believe me or wish not to accept the facts but here they are for you to digest.

WASHINGTON (AFP) – A top US lawmaker blamed China's alleged currency manipulation Wednesday for Japan's "deeply disturbing" steps to weaken the yen, and called for forceful action to press Beijing to change its policy.

"The status quo with currency imbalances is unacceptable and unsustainable," said Democratic Representative Sander Levin, chairman of the powerful House Ways and Means Committee that oversees taxes and trade.

But Levin said he would wait for US Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner's testimony on Thursday to his committee and a key senate panel before deciding how to proceed with legislation to impose retaliatory duties on Chinese goods.

"After he testifies, I'm going to sit down and talk with this committee and the leadership, and the senate, as well as the administration, and decide the next step," Levin told reporters after a hearing on the yuan.

Key Senate and House of Representatives committees are weighing bills to impose retaliatory measures against Chinese goods amid accusations that Beijing keeps its currency -- and thereby its exports -- artificially cheap.

The U.S. currency was quoted at 81.23 yen at one point in early Thursday trading in Tokyo.

The dollar has been under pressure as investors bet that the U.S. Federal Reserve will enact a bond-buying program in early November. Buying bonds would drive interest rates and yields even lower, and tends to encourage dollar-selling.

Japan's finance minister has repeatedly warned Tokyo would take action to stem a rise in the yen. A strong yen hurts Japanese exporters as it cuts the value of their repatriated profits.

Japan intervened on Sept. 15 to weaken the yen, spending 2.12 trillion yen on currency intervention in the month through Sept. 28. The move worked initially, weakening the yen as hoped. But the impact was short-lived.

They saved money and gave it Galant's headlights. Front end is very poor.
