You could possibly get it up past the GTR but the list was all inclusive, not just performance...if that were the case, the ZR1 should have taken the top spot. Audi got it for the balance which must be pretty weighted towards looks because I don't see much hanging with the ZR1 for the price and performance balance.

but thanks on the C36, its one of 236 total imported to US in 1997 (and 1 of ~120 black ones)


I remember falling in love with them from the write-up in Motor Trend.

Thats mitus fault.. their brand gets no respect at all form consumers... most folks would chose a kia over a mitsu... mitsu does not care about their image in america at all it like they have given up..

Also there is no really X MR... Only in the US they call it an MR every where else its a upgraded GSR.

But hey as soon as Mitsubishi call it in the MR in the US, then it is an MR in the US, regardless.
They had to call it MR to explain the much higher price tag...

Nice to see it on this list,I know it made top 10 performance cars as well couple months back too.

I wouldn't have my GG X if it wasn't for my GF,we saw it/ sat in it and well the rest is history.She's a little hottie and the seats fit her perfect.

I don't really care but don't stop that from shoveling your anti-Mitsubishi agenda down everyone's throat.

No doubt. Isn't there some BMW forums he can hang out and bash Mitsubishi? All of his posts are anti-Mitsubishi and he doesn't even drive one. Maybe he's having problems moving on or something?

Probably, but then he wouldn't get the same attention he so desperately craves and lacks elsewhere.

LOL I'm a girl and I fell in love with the X at the dealership when looking to buy a new car. No kidding but I didnt know what an Evo even was till I brought mine home - I'm still on a crash course learning more about cars in general XD (It's stupid but I get all excited when I see an 8or 9 on the road and try to distinguish the two LOL)

Nice. You are one in a million. Most girls I talk to ask me why I sold a BMW for a Mitsubishi. Then I try to explain all of the intricacies of the performance aspects and all I get are blank stares.

^__^ About BMWs, I like how some of them look but I specifically did NOT want to get one during my car search - felt too many people had them on the road already and seeing the same type of cars bore me.
