Mitsubishi Leaving the US Market? | [MERGED]
I wouldn't worry about Mitsubishi leaving. Even if they do tons of suppliers will jump in to sell the parts.
Sales are actually picking up because of the new Eclipse (it sucks but people still buy it...) and I'm sure they got some other cars in the line up that are getting updated.

The last thing they would do is tell dealers, if it got out that they were pulling out for real like that, dealers would be selling their lots left and right. Nobody wants to own a lot for a brand that is going away. Its just like when you are selling a business, you never disclose to your employees that you are selling it or they will all quit and work elsewhere because they have no job security. As you recall, daewoo basically just went away in a day.

Mitsubishi's bold statement: Need a hit ... or we might quit
Product exec says U.S. future depends on new models
Maybe it was a surprising bit of candor. Maybe it was an attempt to light a fire under the sales staff. But at face value, it was a stunning statement: If a new crop of redesigned models doesn't sell, Mitsubishi may pull out of the United States. story Published: 5/29/06 6:00 AM [SUB][$]
