    So they gave the "Mitsubishi ASX" (a rebadged Renault Captur) a facelift less than a year after it was launched to the market.

    Reminds me of how Mazda launched the mx-30 in 2022 and it was just discontinued for 2025. Too bad we didn’t get the rotary range extender, that would’ve been cool.
    Seriously Mazda? 2 years?

    That's why we never get cool things. It's always just sad to see a brand new car get discontinued so early.

    And I'm more of a Toyota guy. Both the 306 and Mégane still look cool, though.

    Oh WRC cars were gorgeous in that era, but the kitcars with the screaming N/A engines are more exciting to watch IMO (and just as fast on tarmac)

    Food for thought: What would modern cars look like if sealed beams were still required?

    Did I drag my car out of the garage at 6am just because this tree across the street looked cool?

    Yes. Yes I did.

    Yeah, they add some character otherwise sorely missing on modern cars.
