Mitsubishi Really looks to be in the toilet.

Good on Ford for the local market

What is really hurting Mitsubishi is no export model. Mitsubishi Japan (MMC) cancelled the long wheel base 380 model in 2003. This was to form the basis of Mitsubishi Australia's (MMAL) export model. Without it MMAL was always going to struggle. They are on death row waiting for the call.
