It isn't a completely new model, yet Mitsubishi managed to fix the main problems the pre-re-styling model used to have. Lack of power, stiff suspension and defased looks are things you won't find in this new model.
Mitsubishi changed all the outer pannels of the car, keeping only its roof the same. Doors, bumpers, bonnet; everything has been re-designed. The new model looks more robust and attractive in comparison to the outgoing model. It also features new rims along with new multi-purpose tyres.
The interior features a new steering wheel, a new radio, new air conditioning controls and a new, more easy-to-read dashboard. The new radio is a double-din, with an iPod , USB and Auxiliary connections, along with bluetooth, which allow the driver to connect almost any type of media devide to the car's stereo system. It also reads MP3 CDs, in case the driver likes to keep their old school possessions.
The new dashboard has a whole new arrangement, with different coloured LEDs, and an illumination which makes it better to be seen both during day and night. The model also features Dual Airbags (except for GLS version) and ABS with EBD, compulsory safety items in today's cars.Prices range from R$ 65'500 for the GLS model with a manual gearbox, R$ 68'990 for the regular manual model and R$ 71'990 for the regular automatic model.
André's Opinion
This car, to me, is the perfect car to have in a city like São Paulo. It is small, so it will fit into almost any parking space; its suspension is really robust, which will hold up consideraby better the conditions of our roads than other cars; it is safe, since it has dual airbags and Anti-Lock Brakes; It is agile and comfortable, because the recalibrated engine delivers more torque and, along with the automatic gearbox (optional), is the best solution to the terrible traffic jams we have; and for those who are worried about city safety, bullet-proofing is a factory optional, which means that its characteristics, such as power and handling figures are maintained. I would definately get this car.

The whole bullet-proofing phenomenon still amazes me. I wouldn't mind having this car either.
I understand.
Here in Brazil, in big cities such as Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo more and more people have been bullet-proofing their cars.
I guess people who have the money to do so should, because violence has unfortunately become a big issue now-a-days.
One of the main attraction in Brazil is the events or the fiesta that they held every year, and if you plan to go there and don't have a place to stay yet, here's just the right place for you.
