The key is for the three to get healthy financially and build on their strengths. They will share platforms more than ever, leverage their design teams, expand self driving technology, computer and tech on wheels instead of wheels and motor with a computer in it, and niche out certain brands targeting Europe, Asia, and North America. They will use the same formula to rebuild Mitsubishi. Design a car with mass appeal and come up with a performance focused grail car targeting the enthusiasts. My fear is the age of driverless tech. Fifteen to twenty years from now.........there may not be a car for the enthusiasts so hang on to your Z's.

If it does make sense for VW to collaborate and acquire Porsche,Audi and Bugatti. Why not Nissan/Renault and Mitsubishi collaboration of knowledge.

Dang I used to drive a 1992 Mitsubishi Galant VR4 and a 1987 Lancer box type.
For years it ruled the Rally world before Subaru took the crown.

Off subject, but why does like every WRX owner ever lower their car at the same time they add mudflaps? I mean, isn't that counterproductive if you're racing offroad?

Updating my post.

I say that cuz like Porsche Audi, they focus on seamless shifting. Mitsubishi, Nissan, Mercedes feel way more mechanical after pulling the paddle. Giving you a "I just shifted" feel.
that "shifted feel" is clunky lol. well at least from 1st to 2nd. I always feel like my gearbox is about to **** up on me.

I think there should be a balls to the wall colab for a Nissan GTR AMG. Get the crazy loud and exciting AMG engine then GTR the **** outta it.

The AMG GTC coupe is pretty close to that.

Bruh you ain't even close to getting me started. You're just another A typical saying a lot while saying nothing at all.

I'm not invalidating your points. I'm just saying you make passionate statements on shyt that's multi faceted and mostly opinion. If you're trying to change my view? You're not. That article you posted about the new CEO is someone else's opinion. N all I said was I hope he puts more passion into Nismo. You make it sound like my hopes need to be busted.

I have the dough for better. But I don't want the market to dry up for the underdogs. Two years ago. I myself was an underdog.

So what's your issue Lil man?
What's funny is you really have no way how car companies work and get butt hurt that Nissan isnt bending to your wishes, while your bros high five you, thinking you're right (which by the way, you're not, because Nissan clearly doesn't give two squirts of piss about what "you" want).

Keep trying, bruh. I've been around much longer than you think.

Maybe one day Nissan will listen to you, LOL. Until then, thanks for clearly proving I'm right since Nissan keeps doing exactly as I keep suggesting and predicting.

Please, come back with a 40 paragraph reply. I'll be sure to skip through that too.

Actually, what he really is, is completely clueless about how car companies work.

I'll be waiting for the keyboard warrior to "teach me a lesson" because he can't handle being told he's wrong.

Lol.... I'll tell you what genius. Why don't you make a new thread and teach us all how car companies work since u know so fvckin much genius....

Then you can tell us why is it Nissan isn't making "my car? LMFAO

Dude.... I already said that I'm looking toward the Supra or just go straight 911 depending on the outcome of the Z. And I want the Giulia.

So fvck Nissan if they can't get it right. If you wanna waste your life continuing go ahead. But like I said . Their are other cars to buy if Nissan can't build the car I want. So get off my c0ck Lil man.

This clown musta swallowed a jungle Z pill this morning.
