Your information couldn't be more fallicious if you tried my friend. Give up writing these articles and bashing brands, it's pathetic. One of the worst articles I’ve ever read.

"Currently the 380 goes to around 1,000 new owners per month, not a bad figure, but no where near Mitsubishi’s expectations." -mitsu said thats about what they expected the 380 to sell, their quote was about a thousand. 2. "3.8L V8 engine" -It's a V6 engine. 3. "Whilst for the poor few who paid the $35,000 price tag back in 2005" -They all got a refund for some of the price. 4. "All you get is a new nose, some new wheels, paint colours and some trim upgrades." -You forgot about the new rear end. -How is the exterior and the interior of a car a minor upgrade? Some problems:

By the way, where did you source this news from. I have heard that the rear end is getting a very different treatment especially on the VRX and other upper models. It is meant to look far different and better to now. The taillights design has supposedly changed slightly, gone led of course, and the rear bumper no longer has well the, bump. We"ll have to wait until July but I am still sticking to my sources. “The 380 is still driven via the front wheels and powered by its 3.8L V8 engine”

Igor. If you go to a shop and buy lets say a phone. Then the following month the shop has a sale on that phone. Do you get a refund for the difference? No. The price drop was a reaction to poor sales, you could bash Mitsu for given us a car that wasn't going to sell. But thats really about it. In a word, why? Igor.
