WOW, my first thought was "Daaaaaaaamn that bitch has got a big ass!"

Why did they ever screw up the Gen II?

That is the most unproportioned car I have ever laid eyes on...

Some proud designer unknowingly beat it to death with his or her ugly stick.

In the C&D test the V6 car averaged 15mpg! That car combines the utility of a sports car with mpg of an SUV.

That mpg was probably gotten with aggressive test-driving. Car & Driver has also gotten 14.0 @ 101 mph with the coupe.

Mmm, looks like an ugly Toyota Solara. Probably about as sporty as well! Good job Mitsu! =(

The rear and the front look the same. Ugly.

I may be alone in this but I kind of like it. Would never buy one though.
