This. Nissan makes jack shit that's interesting anymore. Even the GTR is boring and bland.

I'd say after the late 90s for japanese cars

I think the R35 counted as a crossover
Japan crossover game stronk.

The 90s was the last time Japan actually gave a shit about making cars. I still can't wait to see how badly Toyota fucks up the new Supra. The new NSX is a disgrace.

>>17364588
You think they will give up this easily? Wouldn't the Mitsubishi group just give the automotive division some extra money once they get close to bakruptcy? Surely they will bounce back at some point.
Btw, I think their sales are rising.

>crossover in 6 years
Damn mitsubishi really loves living in the past. It's as if someone release an high power suv today.

This. As long as the crossover is something like this.

It needs to look good, and be capable both on the road and off the road.

That picture is like 30 different kinds of just factually incorrect. Not saying the Z06 is good, it;s not. It's fast but its a one hit wonder.

Sounds good, till you have to check out the montly repair bills.

factually incorrect, transmission WILL overheat. (Zo6 will overheat the engine instead lol)

Thank Nissan for computers to drive, instead of you, cause you;d understeer into ever turn

Factually incorrect. Nissan uses specific chassis and engine refinments for each track, and scrubs tires.

Lola Shelby have won it 4 times in the 60s. Ford just made it into the top 20 last year behind a load of Nissans some diesels and a couple of 4 pots.

The Wankel engine is fine. It just not that great when used in an everyday car. It's perfect for racing and aircrafts.

>>17366567

>>17365034
That's not a crossover, that's a proper 4x4 with amazing offroad capabilities. Crossovers are just cars that look like vans but have normal doors instead of sliding doors, and look closer to an SUV. This mall crawler evo won't ever leave the pavement.

>>17366710
As someone whos driven the 02 nsx its not very fast. Feels really good though.
Hondas hybrid game needs more low end torque though. They aren't bad just not up to the performance it had. Still comfy though.

>>17367184
Wankel is technically a type of rotary but they are very different. Also good for revs thus good on airplanes.

>>17367170
no, fucking apex seals are life

>>17367170
Mazda still got a minimum of dignity unlike Nissan and Mitsubishi.

>>17367170
This could be kind of cool, I actually like rotary, but I don't know how they could get a rotary engine to work with their SKYACTIV technology. One of the main benefits of SKYACTIV is fuel efficiency and rotary engines just don't do fuel efficiency.

>and rotary engines just don't do fuel efficiency.

>Mazda has repeatedly teased—or tortured—Wankel-engine fans with the possibility of a multirotor sports car and then retracted that possibility. Now, new patent applications show the brand is once again working on the rotary, but in an application that’s likely to dash the hopes of the engine’s fans: using its iconic engine as an onboard generator, rather than the free-revving heart of a sports car.

I know this post is a day old but holy fuck did that trigger me. you mention tuned power and Ford basically downgraded when they used that bottleneck piece of sit ecoboost because that will never have the tuning potency of the previous engine let alone what the Coyote could do.

New NSX is racing and it doesn't have the racing pedigree of the old one yet because it just started (literally this year).

New GT feels like what alphone/soviet would do if given the chance to revive a car americans like just to troll.
