I can See the Future Clearly... :)

http://www.topgear.com/car-news/conc...oncept-new-asx The new vision - TBR in 2020? (Get the pun??) Will be interesting to see what fuel options they offer as well.

But I am waiting for this bad boy!! http://www.topgear.com/car-news/gami...ion-gt-concept

Well, they should skip all that techno whizy-bang stuff and get This body style out NOW!



I'd trade in our O.S. in a New York minute for this model.

Yeah, I'm lovin' it! Would be hard to resist. Plus I could see it becoming a real offroad rally unit.

I am not so skeptical. The "Dynamic Shield" design seems to be getting lots of press. Sure the production version will be toned down a bit, but I tell you - if Mits produces this they will have a winner on their hands! Sales will go off the chart.

I'll put a down payment on this right now!
If Mitsubishi decides to bring this specific model out early (like in 2016 for the 2017 model year) and give it a petrol engine instead.

They can save even more cost, if they install traditional gauges and dials. I don't need nor want all those expensive touch-screens and HUDs, they have planned.

Gotta say that I use a HUD display sometimes and that is pretty awesome. But I agree - keep the Star Wars iPad far away.

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery? I like the new design. I don't mind that the RVR looks like a Q3 - or vice versa.

Well, at least Mitsu isn't mangling the xeroxing.
They're doing a decent job

Land Rover : Evoque







Compare that to some "other asian" copycat jobs.

This is suppose to be a chinese 'Ferrari'...




or, is it a 'Porsche' copycat?

Talk about an embarrassment!


***********

If they're going to copy something, at least put a little effort in making the copy on par or better than the original, for crying out loud.

Not a fan at all honestly. It's a mix of the outlander, murano, and lancer. Boring and it's electric/hybrid....

I can hardly wait for Elon's $30K electric car. Frankly, the hybrid concept is the future. And I like it.
