Does the Daimler-Chrysler pull-out scare off Mitsubishi buyers?

Apr 25, 2004 4 Replies

Now that Daimler-Chrysler announced it will sell its 37% stake in Mitsubishi Motors, leaving the corporation in turmoil, would car buyers take that into consideration when buying a Mitsubishi car also? I am fan of the Evo's in rallying and would be sad to see the marque disappear from motorsport.


mitsu's glory days are over . the evo's wouldn't even start at the wrc event in new zealand.

agree, it is sad.

A friend of mine has a EVO 8 and I asked him the same question.

He said it doesn't bother him much except for carrying on the EVO line.

He made mention of that they have to supply replacement parts for 10 years. I don't know how that would work if the company went belly-up.

tommi makinen did a fine job of dominating the wrc driving an evo. perhaps you were caught unaware?
