Isn't Mitsubishi still around and kicking? I have no idea how that brand solders on with such low volume and price points.

Technically. But they're a shell of what they were. Man I'd love to see a new take on a GTO VR4. And why'd they use the Eclipse name like that. :( :(

In the OG Grand Turismo I somehow wound up with a red GTO. I was able to upgrade the thing to something silly like 940 horsepower. It was... great.

In very broad brushes, cars seem to be getting both more boring and higher performance. The Evo, Celica, Camaro (again), Sky/Solstice, S2000, MR2, STI (the new one doesn't really count), etc are all gone. On the other hand, most budget EVs will give the performance cars of yesterday year a good run for their money.
