On the brightside, I can report that his new girlfriend drove well.
Shocking, isn't it?

Nissan, awful. All of it.
Toyota, awful. The grills are all so wrong! Rear end of the Avalon is nice.
Honda, awful. The latest Civic is so ugly I would probably vomit if I had a hangover. Shame too because I hear it drives wonderfully.
Mitsubishi isn’t even a car company anymore.
Me, no one gives a shirt what I think.

His concept was awesome and they whittled it down to a anemic fwd car. Mitsu has been down hill for a long time.
He quit and went to work for West Coast Choppers back in it's hay day. Some pretty crazy stories.
That's awesome! (That you know the designer, not what they did to his concept). I always thought that even the production version of the 4G eclipse was really cool looking and a big risk for Mitsubishi at a time when wacky designs were settling down. It's just a damn shame they built something that cool looking out of a turd of a Galant....
