I would love to see them actually produce this. Of course it won't look exactly like the concept but the awd and the turbo diesel would be awesome.

I wondered when someone would post this up.
I'm keeping my eyes on it. Alot of new technology there, potentially. It's just a concept now, so, who knows how much of it we'll see. -------------------- ... she likes bein' forced ...

The Mitsu Concept-RA is a sharp looking car. As for the diesel, I think they are inevitable. Here is an Audi R8 diesel V12 concept car (500hp, 737lb-ft) based on their LeMans diesel race car:

QUOTE The concept uses an aluminum space frame for weight savings (aiding both handling and fuel economy), while the hood, fenders and other body panels are made from impact-resistant (and recyclable) plastic resin wonder if that could will take all the flak saturns have for plastic body panels --------------------

Looks pretty nice. The gull wings are a little over the top.
