@Manuel89km77

horrible! but, i had a similar jacket at the time. what was i on? :/

[zupperm]

And I thought Jeremy's worst wardrobe choice ever was that gaudy leather jacket from the 348 review.

Nice fro bro.

What on earth is this car? The front of it appears to be from the Galant that dated from 1988 to 1993, but the interior says otherwise.

The second to the top comment above says its a Diamante, and the dashboard would tend to agree with that.

In truth this car is not a Galant, Sigma, Magna, or Diamante, or at least it doesn't match any of those vehicles that were sold in or imported into New Zealand.

Check it out, a photographic memory in action.

WHOA!!! Someone needs to turn the volume down on the jacket that Jeremy is wearing.

[NMI76]

Only in the 90's would they let a grown man wear that hoodie on public television...

This is actually based off the Magna shell with the Diamante rear end. Underside is identical to that of the same year 3000GT/GTO. the magna got this shell, but only with the SOHC engine and shitty beam axle rear end, Diamante got the works...

I own both a Magna and Diamante.....Love my Diamante....20 years old and still going strong.

WOAH jacket!

[reviva2003]

mitsubishi had a great R&D before, until it's fall of asian economic down turn in 97 due to the company's concentration of sales in asia while toyota, nissan and mazda concentrated in the western area during those times. and it resulted from 4th biggest company to no.17

I love my Diamante/Sigma. I have a US-Spec Diamante wagon and I honestly wish it would've come in manual or had a version like this come to the states. Maybe then we wouldn't have gotten the terrible, ugly, and slow 2004-2007/2008 Diamantes.

[Woolymatt]

Yes, this was a Diamante in some markets. For a 20 year old design I still think the Mitsubishi it looks like a great car.

@Woolymatt Here in New Zealand this car was known as V3000. The Magna was the Australian name, and was decontented somewhat for certain models.

I got a woody watching this

[sargentaaron2004]

@MsClaireLouLou What a load of waffle... Jeremy Clarkson changed WITH the times... Like you should have done.

[streesmut70]

Diamante

[a2001mirage]

[lilruc]

[Dragsteryourself]

@lilruc I believe Mitsubishi re-named it "Sigma" for the European market.
