The rear spoiler looks like a 4th gen eclipse while the rear bumper is like an evo x. Its far more too good looking than a porsche’s butt. But the front intake looks an s2000. By the way, the Car is sure Nice Looking!

KC, as you know of course, look is subjective. What looks unique to me can look like something else to you.

But regarding the concept pictures above, myself, Karl, and Wheelnut all find the rear looks like a Porsche.

Personally, if for example you look at an Aston Martin and say you see a Toyota from certain angles, then I honestly can’t help you.

Momo I’d really love to see a car these days which doesn’t look like something before it from certain angles.

Front end is blended in right and not dysfunctional. WTF is going on with rear spoiler and letterbox thin slot rear tailights and as for back window it seems to be too far forward and longish rear boot (this maybe computer generated image issue).

What is it with Mitsubishi?! Why copy Alfa’s rear for the Lancer, and now copy Porsche’s rear for the concept?

Is it so hard for their design studios to come up with something original?

The front looks ok, but the rear is just awful.

It’s the perfect blend.. a bit of EVO Lancer [Front]; a bit of Audi R8 [Profile]; a bit of Porsche [Rear]; and a bit of Veyron [Flares].. or possibly VE Commodore.
All blended together rather nicely for a change.

wow! that looks stunning! There is alot of mitsubishi eclipse in the way the guards and roof line are done (sadly the eclipse is only sold in the US) and it to me sorta looks like a blend of evo lancer/eclipse/awesome and i love it!

maybe mitsubishi want to be the first to make a proper diesel sports car, but alas its probably more of a “styling study” then anything else, maybe its a pointer to the next generation eclipse or something

As with all concepts, it will likely be a watered down version of the painting. Even so, I kinda like it.

I love the flared arches, but the rear is a little derivative – sort of Boxter cum Lancer.

Going by looks only, it could be a GT-R competitor. Alas, it only has a diesel. Maybe next time.
