I love year end retrospectives. It's fun to look back and see what topics caught everyone's attention this year.
(OK, so 2016 isn't quite over yet. But unless something truly amazing happens in the next week or so, the list is probably safe to post.)
Notable: there was a LOT of interest in the revised 2017 hatchback and the G4 sedan. I think this just shows how much people were hoping that Mitsu would deliver certain improvements to the car. (It definitely improved.)
Also notable: the 2nd most viewed thread was from an unhappy owner. Makes me wonder if that one got linked from other forums.
