Not sure if it's going to be legit in posting such things up on the forums. I'll let one of the admins answer that.

We all know that the magna wins with this sort of stuff, especially when you talk about the earlier magnas.

Japan introduced a lot of nice things to the aussie market when the sigma/magnas were first brought out. Holden and Ford had to really step up their game to offer the same luxuries at Mitsi started offering. Not only that but when you look at the 4cylinder power figures compared to what the 6's and 8's were giving from Ford and Holden, Mitsubishi weren't far off the mark there either. Sure you don't get as much torque but a lot of people didn't use torque figures as much as they do these days.

Anyway... Mitsubishi forever! lol
