[PranK]

Press release here; http://nissannews.com/en-US/nissan/usa/releases/nissan-and-mitsubishi-motors-forge-strategic-alliance-nissan-to-take-34-stake-in-mitsubishi-motors-for-237-billion-yen

Nissan and MMC have agreed to cooperate in areas including purchasing, common vehicle platforms, technology-sharing, joint plant utilization and growth markets.

God I hope those "common vehicle platforms" come from Nissan.

What do you think?

[GTofuS-T]

Some sort of EVO x GTR perhaps?

[Anfanee]

Evo Xi "Nismo" edition?

[GTR-N1]

I hope they become as light as Lotuses.

To shed 500Kg.

[Robzilla32]

Nissan heard that Hadouken bought an Evo so they bought Mitsubishi so that he couldn't escape

[Leroy Peterson]

why is everyone thinking Evo + GTR?

how many car companies arent owned by some sort of evil puppet master company?

how many of them merge their sports cars together or even base them on similar thing? (the answer is basically none)

But if Nissan takes Mitsubishis SST tech and ditches the CVT, i wont complain.

Mitsubishi colt GTiR?

GSR V-Spec Evolution 12 N1

I was thinking more of a general name change; Missan.

Or, for the itchy, Nitsubishi.

[GTR-N1]

Launch Model:- Maximus Magnus Chariot

Nissubishi.

I'm thinking evo VS gtr....

Hopefully they can bring it back on a slightly different platform like they have the gtr.

Or, re-release the gto.

Love it!

Be interesting to see if they decide to make a joint car.

Evo xi with a v6 in it haha that's what the Evo guys are going on about

Hate to predict a marriage of something boring to make them lots of money... Like lancer + pulsar common platform.

Maybe It will enable them to do something innovative with hybrid or battery tech?

I just hope it prolongs / revitalises the EVO heritage. Shitsubishi needs a hero car. God help them for releasing the new Pajero. So ugly. MUST have been designed for the Asian markets.

[NISSAN GTR]

Cant wait for the R36 GTR with V6 Magna engine , the sound will be amazing .

I call it the new challenger.

It's too small (especially the interior) to be a pajero.
