list of 2012 models being canceled

List grows of car models being killed after 2012

Can't say I will miss any on the list. The Cx7 was probably the only nice one? I'm just angry mitsu didn't take the time to go back to the eclipses roots with a TURBO engine and AWD. Mitsu was really stupid when it came to the eclipse.

I got cut off by some a-hole in an R-Class today. Glad it's getting the axe!!!

Mitsubishi Galant. Ditto, although we drive a Galant recently across Georgia and South Carolina and thought it was a quite decent, though not standout, model.
Mazda CX-7. Smaller models are in favor.
Lexus HS Hybrid. This one caught us by surprise. But the CT can probably fill the bill better.
Mercedes-Benz R-Class. Big and ungainly, it never caught on.
Hyundai Veracruz. In an giant SUV category that's dying amid high gas prices.
GMC Canyon. We'll be surprised if this goes away with midsize pickup truck sales have risen ever since Ford killed the Ranger in the U.S.
Chevrolet Colorado. A Canyon clone.

Dodge Caliber = Kia Sedona = Mitsu Galant = POS
Colorado = Canyon = Veracruz = i don't care, were they actually cars
HS = R-class = lumpy turd sold by a good car company
CX-7 and Eclipse had decent runs.

CX-7 is actually a really nice crossover.

I feel the eclipse has so much potential its unreal. The 90's were the eclipses glory days. If it ain't brok?. Don't try to fix it. Mitsu killed AWD, killed turbo's etc. All I can say is the new eclipse did have a pretty nice interior and awesome seats.
Keep the Elcipse interior the way it is, work on weight reduction (shave 300lbs. Evo engine and transmission and build on the modernized version of the 99 bodystyle. I would jump one in a heartbeat... but mitsu didn't think it through.

Agreed. I also came off impressed at the Cx7 handling. It was an awesome ride.

repped for speaking the truth!

and for the record, had mitsu not lost their damn minds, the eclipse would still be a worthy contender

Quite an oxymoron, don't you think? Fastest minivan? That's exactly what I want for my kids... no wonder it is dying a slow death.

The Dodge Caliber is a monstrous, ungainly piece of ****. I know someone who will be sad to see them go -- and I will look forward to laughing at her :icon18:

i thought the xB was getting canned in 2013? or is that just the current model? :confused:

I don't know, but if that's true, then good riddance.
