Mitsubishi, weirdly enough, where I’m from (Philippines), they are doing just fine, but they are struggling everywhere else. Mitsubishi have a special place in our hearts, we love our box-type Lancers, Galants, and especially Pajeros. Today though Evos are gone, the Eclipse is an SUV, I really loved the new Mirage but they never thought of making a hot hatch, which would have been perfect!

      How the fuck did FCA end up with Lancia and how did they squander it?

        Not sure if this was rhetorical but in the 60s Lancia like a lot of Italian manufacturers was hemorrhaging money and in 1969 Fiat can in and bought it. Lancia to this day still has the most WRC championships and the last year they competed was 1992, after winning 6 constructors championships in a row (arguably should have been 7) after 1992 fiat took the WRC winning HF Sqadra Corse team and essentially moved to over to Alfa to turn the 155 Q4, which was essentially a 155 with Lancia Delta Intrgrale underpinnings, into a successful racecar. While they succeeded in making the 155 a great race car, there was never a full street 155 GTA one could buy and Lancia never went racing again.
