They are all nice cars, but as I've said before, why do the American car co's wait so long to bring these things out???
While the Americans sit there and say "Look what we're going to make!" (aren't we special), the Japanese, Koreans, Germans, and everyone else MAKE and SELL their cars.

America’s Sagging Automakers
Robert L. Nardelli, who was just named chief executive at Chrysler, faces enormous challenges. Chrysler is in the midst of its fourth turnaround effort in three decades and Japanese companies like Toyota and Honda are surging.[X(] In July, foreign auto companies surpassed their American counterparts in monthly sales for the first time.[X(][X(][X(]
What changes do you think are needed in the American auto industry?

[align=center]Hi Members, which one of the cars listed on this thread @ the Detroit Auto Show,[/align][align=center]do you like ?[/align][align=center][/align][align=center]One that I like isthe space concept machine that Mitsubishi did : ) [:-][/align][align=center]I like the design/size/rims/doors/+ [:-][/align][align=center][/align][align=center][/align][align=center]
Mitsubishi Concept-RA
The Japan-based automaker may be headed in the right direction with the introduction of the aggressive-looking Concept-RA. This low-slung sports coupe concept takes styling cues from the new Lancer Evolution.Decked out with 21-inch wheels anddual exhaust tips, it features doors that open like those on an exotic sports car. To help reduce the car’s weight, outer panels are made from recyclable plastic resin; therigid body structure sits on an aluminum spaceframe. Combinerelatively lowweight with a turbodiesel powertrain and it’sevident that the Concept-RA is not all show with no go. The 2.2-liter 4-cylinder engine produces 201 horsepower and310 lb-ft of torque. Mitsubishi’s next-generation all-wheel-drive system putspower to the pavement at all four corners.[/align][align=center] WoW [:-][/align][align=center][/align][align=center]WoW ~ Wee [:-][/align][align=center][/align][align=center]The End& Rear End : ) [:-][/align][align=center][/align]

Damn, that ZR1 supercharged is one pretty machine. I'd probably take one of them in a heartbeat over any other car ever produced.
