Dodge did have a lot to do with the styling of the Dodge Stealth and they did have some input on the engine. Is the Dodge Stealth a Mitsubishi? Of course it is. My car was built in 1990 and the only problem I have on the car is a seam in the drivers seat has started to unravel. And I have a slight gear scrape going to 2nd gear. 240000 miles and this is all that I have to complain about. Also I get between 22-24 miles to the gallon around town. Depends on how many times i take it through the gears to red line. My sons car has 230000 miles and the only thing that I can say is that a very annoying sound comes out of his radio. My oldest sons 3000GT has 130000 miles on it and I think he told me the alt. belt squeeks. Other than that the car is absolutly great. I really don't hear a lot about the problems that others have talked about, but I'm sure every car has some lemons. Ya'll take care and have a nice day. Randy.
