Mercedes > Mitsubishi any day of the week, unless you are racing lmao.

Nobody is on a high horse, all im saying is that Mercedes is a better Car maker than mitsubishi. thats a Fact, thats why you dont see many mitsubishis on the road, atleast in the east coast ha
You are 23, and very unlikely to have actually been paying for your entry-level W204 (which is still a nice car). It isn't a 'fact' of anything. I've never read anyone from a Mitsubishi owner group complaining about fuel pooling up under the rear seat in their cars (like the AMG guys do here).

And our Mercedes carries many features both in style and design from the AMG counterparts.

If you want to call our C300s and C350s crap and say how a mitsubishi is better than our Mercedes Benzes then go ahead but dont forget one thing, you are in the Mercedes forum.
No real enthusiast here, or on any other forum will slam another brand without any basis like you have here. Take a step back and see that each company has a different target market in mind. Even for cars in the same price point. Mitsubishi doesn't make luxury vehicles, but Mercedes doesn't make a car for $40,000 that can compete in the performance category, period.

As i said ,the Evo maybe the only Okay car mitsubishi makes and thats only cuz it has performance(no luxury features, safety etc), any other mitsubishi car is substandard, have u ever been to a mitsubishi dealer? im guessing not cuz no one even walks into their dealerships and for a good reason lol

Oh and btw since you seem to know so much about how 4Matic sucks, how many Mitsubishis have u seen driving in snow? hmm, im in the east coast and we had a bunch of snow this winter and i saw Many BMWs, Benzes, Toyotas driving in snow, i havent seen a single mitsubishi driving in snow so how can u say German AWD sucks and japaneese AWD is superior makes completely no sense

The c300 is an everyday Luxry car, the Evo is a racing car and is not a Luxury car.
Mitsubishi's are built plenty safe and solid. I'd wrecked one of my old ones (back in 2004), and walked away, uninjured. The car was demolished, but the interior compartment was completely intact. One of my good friends FLIPPED his 2000 Mitsubishi Eclipse (3G) at over 85mph, and he survived. You have no idea the level of safety requirements that ALL VEHICLES MUST pass to be sold in the United States.

Most volume Mitsubishi's are not the AWD Lancer Evolutions. So, like most other larger volume competitors, they are usually FWD. However, Mitsubishi's biggest negative is their lack of market penetration. But that is just Mitsubishi Motors Corporation, Mitsubishi Corporation is GIGANTIC, and I'd venture a guess as a whole would easily eclipse the size of Daimler AG.

I'd take Acura's SH-AWD system any day over 4Matic.

So you're saying that, because you personally haven't seen a Mitsubishi driving in the snow, the Mercedes has a better AWD system? WTF.

Continue to keep making laughable commentary. Clearly you enjoy being noticed and heard, same reason you're obsessed with the Mercedes-Benz logo on your car. Hey, EVOs are available in a bright orange color (which, btw, is a very nice color to the member in this thread who has one). I'm sure that'll get you noticed too.

I used to LOVE watching WRC.

I would never ever call an EVO a "Japanese POS".

The body of the C63 looks like the c300 excluding the bumpers but the main body looks identical to the c300.

Btw that orange Evo is nice to make it clear, for me atleast. Mitsubishi is not on the same level Mercedes and BMW are. That's just me though and I'm not talking about performance, I'm talking luxury features, comfort and safety.

I am 23 and I AM payin for my c300 myself (lease)

There is no need to clarify anything, I think you are beyond rescinding your foolish statements/half-thoughts. Anything we need to know concerning you and your views on this thread have been considered and discarded. I suggest you let this thread go on sans your inane commentary.

They will not be missed




EDIT: Ranjel, I love how you made your sig an EVO. Bravo.

EDIT2: Lamonsas, this forum is an invaluable resource. STOP alienating yourself, there are people here who will be more helpful than most SA's you will meet in your LIFETIME. Don't become another little Billy Smith Jr.

Someone PM one of the admins, this thread needs to be shut down if we can't move onto a meaningful discussion.

we should continue a normal discussion but you keep telling people to shut their mouth when you have no right to and dont even realize that.

Let the discussion continue.

Other than the Evo's performance , the Mercedes is superior by all means.

Wow, I had multi-quoted all the nonsense spewing from this guy's mouth so that just MAYBE he would realize how crazy he sounded.... flip flopping, rescinding than restating, comparing then asking why we were comparing (so maybe you would stop comparing them and saying one is better than the other????)



but opted for something simpler.



even if he starts making personal insults i'm not coming back to this thread. Sorry Fefo that your thread was trolled and flamed, you would have LOVED the evo, but missed the practicality of your C class. Such different beasts, it must have been so hard to choose.

If you're at an age where you're trying to "get chicks", an Evo with a loud exhaust would likely do the trick better than the three-pointed star would. The Evo would hand your C300 its *** on a silver platter in terms of performance.
This pretty much sums it all up.

time for a bigger turbo and a tune by AMS. That 4g63 is bulletproof and can withstand a ton of boost. Have fun I know I did with my previous 4g63.

Looked at getting the 2010 Evo X - the dealerships were giving them away. Crazy. But at the end of the day to boy racer, and I knew after 10,000 miles it would have been a rattle trap. CHEAP Interior!

If youre going for performance then it is a good car. Why do they always have to be compared to a Mercedes?
