My friend and I are having a debate on whether or not the Evolution series, and more importantly the USDM Evo 8 is considered a "DSM".

I dont want to influence the poll any, but I know the acronym is Diamond Star Motors, but most would agree that the term "DSM" means something more than that.

Vote away and post reasons!

(first time posting a poll too...hope it goes ok

 

no. From what i understand, DSM's refer to the cars made under the joint venture of mitsubishi and chrysler corp...and include the old eclipses (1g and 2g) talons and lasers, and the starion, daytona, and (i forget the plymouth one)

 

Damn, sorry about the subject guys. I guess it doesnt allow Quotes...could I get a Moderator to change subject to add DSM on the end of it?

 

The Evo is most definitely NOT a DSM. The term "DSM" is very specific. A 3000GT is a DSM, btw, not the Evo.

 

Right because of the Dodge Stealth?

 

yes

 

Right and allso because the Evo s made with all japanese part content as well as manufactured in Japan. Correct me if I am wrong but most if not all DSM's were manufactured in the US.

 

the evo is a dsm
like what the hell are you guys talking about
diamond star motors

 

I know an EVO is not a DSM,but my question is: is a conquest TSI considered one? Did it not share a platform with a mitsu. equivlant?
just curious.

 

evoinit...why didnt you vote? its still 11 - 0.

 

Fixed the subject line...

This subject has been beaten so many times. That thread posted right above me is worth a look, filled with much information (pretty much the same objective that this thread is trying to achieve). We can't have multiple threads of these running around. If you feel the need to reply, you may do so in that very thread. I'm closing this.
