NEW MITSUBISI 380 - Pics revealed!

[buddyforu]

Riiiight.... :whistling Funnily enough, they probably would be as 'excited and appreciative' of the VE Commodore when it comes out late next year. The 380 is a MAJOR model for Mitsubishi, just like the VE is for Holden. Probably more so for Mitsu because it really is a 'make-or-break' model. And considering it competes directly with the Commodore should be more than enough to make people sit up and take notice. I for one am very interested in this car and would never right it off just because it doesn't have a Holden badge...VERY naive... :b:

Hey u got it all wrong! I'm not writing it off because it doesn't have a holden badge, that means jack to me, hell it could have a ford badge and I wouldn't care. In fact it has nothing to do with the badge it doesn't have, its all about the badge it does have that makes me write it off... mitsubishi....... :rofl:

The Series II VZ is out NOW. As of September 2005, Shanghai Red and Barbados are no longer available. Glaze, a silver with blue and gold pearl joins the range. The only difference between VZ II and VZ I is that the VZ II has no V6 or V8 badge underneath the repeater lamps. The VZ II Lumina is a matter of days away also, you can tell it from the Series I Lumina by the Calais-style foglights. Cosmo (the purple off the VY II SS) makes a return but it's Lumina-specific. There are pictures of the VZ II Lumina on the GM Media website.

That's all I know.

Oops sorry, I just forgot. I have SEEN and SAT IN a VZ II Lumina at a Holden dealer but pricing and other info hasn't been released yet.

Is there any mechanical/driveline differences between VZI and II??

And your point is...

The 380 competes directly with Commodore. Whether or not the Commdore is an Australian Icon is irrelevent.

NO!!!!!!!!!! Also I would like to say that yes, it is pretty ****in' dangerous to put a 192kW 3.8-litre V6 into a Front-Wheel-Driven car.....

Bring on the Supercharged AWD version! Yeeeeeee Haaaaaaaa!
