Misubishi have totally pulled back from Chrysler/Dalimer in recent months. Mnay programs that they were sharing have been dropped. I think they got tired of pumping money into Mitsubishi.

 

Were they backing Misubishi during the GST/GSX Eclipse era?

 

I heard they are going to start producing Cobalts made of solid aluminum.

 

If you mean the first gen Laser/Talon/Eclipse---it was a joint venture. Although Mitsubishi did most the enginering work. The Stratus (Avenger) and Sebring was based of the Galant platform.

Mitsubishi was in on the World engine project (1.8L, 2.0, 2.4) but I think they pulled out.

Any involvement left is at an all time low.

 

Ya However There Mivec Engine Is Insane I Had A Ralliart And I'd Love To Go Back To That Car But I Like My Cobalt More... I Think The Only Reason Mitsubishi Went To Dodge For The Raider Is Because Mits Is Not Really Experienced With Any Trucks At All.. They Had The Mightymax Back In The Mid To Late 80s Wich By The Way I Have Hoods In Stock For Them Love To Get Rid Of Em...cough Cough Hint Hint... Anywho, Alot Of Car Companies Have Merged Together To Help Build Products Better Nuff Said

 

Yeah Ralliarts are nice. I almost ended up in one. Back in the 80's it was Dodge borrowong the Mitsu pick up and renaming the D-50--it even had a Turbo-diesel! A GF at the time had one--it was fun but went through starters like you would not beleive.

And with GM they gave the GT-360 (Trailblazer ect) to Iszuz--called the Ascender. Same for the Saab 9-7.
