Did anyone ask where are they assembled?
Would you buy a new Mitsubishi?

The Canadian models I've serviced, like the RVR (Outlander Sport in the USA) were Made In Japan.
This particular one has a J VIN, so Japan. That’s a plus in my book.
They are decent cars.
Lots of Nissan DNA in them anymore due to the previous Renault/Nissan/Mitsu merger.
It's incumbent on you to determine whether or not you have an issue with that.
Biggest issue for me would be the lack of Dealership support.
Central Ohio (Columbus area) is now down to one.

The Illinois plant closed in 2015 and the site was taken over by Rivian.
Yep. Hard pass for me.
I would buy one in a heartbeat. My only real concern would be the dealerships, but I see so many running around aftermarket parts support should be there even if Mitsu pulls out.
How long have I been hearing that rumor anyway? At least 10 years it seems.

According to Car & Driver all Mitsubishis sold in the USA are assembled in Japan.
That 2024 is not subject to the 25% tariff. The new ones coming in will be. Mods, we can’t talk about tariffs but in this case it’s important that the poster know this.
Valid point. It may take some time, but Mitsubishi is working on the workaround:

The Outlander looks very sharp! With a decent factory warranty I wouldn't hesitate, as long as I had a dealer in my area.

Won't buy a new car that I'd have to drive 100 miles to the dealer so no.
I don't see why you would have to?
Yes. I’ve owned two Evolutions and loved them. Very durable and reliable.
Sport has a 1.5 liter turbo motor any downside with that motor. With awd rated at 25 mpg. Drive a Chevy Malibu 2025 with a1.5 turbo was impress.
You can get a Impreza 5 door wagon/hatch for under $24K if you negotiate hard on the right day. I did. high inventory on these right now over her in the Northeast U.S. - New England.
I had this new Impreza for a couple weeks. Then traded it. Had an alloy wheel package. Very comfortable seats, roomy, easy to drive, spacious interior with nice fit and finish and good usability. I fitted a stack of 2 x 8" x 8ft PT decking joists inside the closed hatch - without the lumber even touching the dashboard. Just put the seats down and laid back the front backrest.
But the new car had a bothersome drivetrain vibration that was not addressed on a lengthy service visit, the suspension has a soft and floaty calibration for a compact car - not my taste. The final death knell was a surprisingly poorly calibrated CVT with no user selectable incremental "ranges" like on a Crosstrek. Only L. This was also J VIN Car. Sadly, I just gave up on it. - Arco
What was entailed with "giving it up"? Did the deal include a trial period, during which you can trade to another Subaru?
Or did you sell a "brand new" car?
