The inevitable has finally happened.

Pour one out for the modern-day Yugo and the official car of the sub-500 FICO score.

I'm surprised Mitsubishi continues to exist selling passenger cars in the U.S. and didn't leave like Suzuki and Isuzu did. 

A friend of mine in the early 1990s had a Mitsubishi Galant and then when he got rid of it after a few years, got another one.  It had this interesting asymmetric driver's side bump on its engine hood.

It's not dead. I bought one, and my credit score is over 700.

On the Eclipse, that bump was to clear the giant DOHC sprockets. :lol:
