| Mitsubishi Eclipse History |
|
The Mitsubishi Eclipse was first manufactured in Illinois by a cooperative Chrysler/Mitsubishi group known as Diamond Star Motors, along with its sister platform vehicles the Eagle Talon and the Plymouth Laser. They were all available in 4 trim levels, 2 non turbo, one turbo FWD and one Turbo AWD. They quickly established a reputation for rugged reliability, as well as ease of modification and spirited performance. When the 1st Generation ended in 1994, the Plymouth version was dropped from production. The DSM group was also dissolved in late 1994, but not before the design team had finished with the work to continue the Eclipse and it's remaining sibling the Talon through one more generation. In late 1994 the restyled second generation Eclipse and Talon began production as 1995 models and in 1996 the line up was strengthened with the addition of a convertible Spyder in two trims, non turbo FWD and turbo FWD. In 1997 the Talon and Eclipse received an update in the form of new front and rear bumpers, spoilers, and body cladding for each version. When the Eagle brand name ceased production in 1998, the Eclipse was the sole survivor of the 3 originators and celebrated it's final year of production with stylish interior upgrades. Eclipse's 3rd generation came to market in the 2000 model year, larger and less performance oriented, and without the AWD and turbo 4 platform that had made its predecessor's famous. It was followed one year later by the redesigned Spyder convertible. Now the 2006 Mitsubishi Eclipse will be taking over as the newest model but remaining true to its immediate ancestor will not offer the turbo or AWD options of the original 2 generations. |

2010 Mitsubishi Lancer Ralliart, Evo GSR and Evo MR Limited - Click above for high-res gallery
Remember the Mitsubishi Lancer Ralliart Sportback we showed you back in October? The one that debuted in Paris? The one that we lusted after for its hatchback practicality and Ralliart brawn? The one that the good folks from Mitsubishi had promised we'd be getting here in the States this summer as an early 2010 model? Well, Mitsubishi has delivered. Sort of. A few Mitsu reps drove down to Irvine from Cypress with a genuine 2010 Ralliart Sportback. And not only that, but they dragged along an Evo GSR and an all-new MR Limited as well.
The Ralliart Sportback drew a lot of attention for its shape, but the Limited was the one that caught our eye. It's a regular old MR with a few differences. In place of the Alcantara bits, Mitsubishi has gone all-cowhide inside. There are also a few additions to the standard options list, including an Evo-first moonroof. Out back, the car has gone undercover by foregoing the large wing that has heretofore characterized the Evo sedans. Sounds like the Evo MR for grownups. Mitsu's reps remained tight-lipped on the details, but pricing is likely to top $40,000 for this model. We didn't get as many shots as we would have liked, but we did manage to get a few that we've assembled in the gallery below. As soon as we get more details, we'll fill you in.

VIDEO: Fifth Gear pits Ford Focus RS vs. Mitsubishi Evo X |

Yesterday, we showed you Fifth Gear's take on the new Audi R8 V10 - notable more for their footage of the gorgeous blue test car than for much in the way of actual performance driving and analysis. In an effort to correct that oversight, we've found you another clip of the UK television show that features not just one enthusiast car - but two cars, Ford's stonking new Focus RS and the Mitsubishi Evolution X. Better still, the fearsome twosome tangle on the track in a pair of tests with hot shoes Tiff Needell and BTCC champion Jason Plato at the wheel.
It's a scrap as the touring car scion takes on the rally-bred hero, so check out the front-drive versus all-wheel-drive pocket rocket madness after the jump.
