Tarmac Spyder

I mentioned in another thread in another forum that Mitsubishi is scheduled to premier a concept car in less than a month at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit called the Tarmac Spyder (see http://www.naias.com/main.asp?sectio...&visitorType=1). If this vehicle has been discussed here in the past, please forgive and point me to the relevant thread(s).

Somehow, I don't think this is just an updated emasculated Eclipse. The word "tarmac" has a distinct rally connotation, suggesting AWD and that there might also be a non-tarmac incarnation envisioned.

Any thoughts or info on this? If not, we'll just have to wait until the Jan 6 press conference by Mitsubishi at the Detroit show.

P.S. Moderators,
There doesn't yet seem to be a forum for discussing Mitsubishi Motors topics which are non-Lancer oriented but, nevertheless, seem to rise above the level of discussion typical of the Off-Topic forum (e.g. "What's your favorite CD"). I, perforce, yield to your collective decision as to the best forum for this post.

But, somehow, I miss the "spyder' feeling.

That would be a more appropriate forum for this post (unless the "Tarmac Spyder" turns out to be an EVO cabriolet ). I'm not sure how that forum escaped my notice. I guess I failed to scroll down far enough.

Can you move this there?
