description
at the 2005 geneva motor show, mitsubishi has unveiled a concept-car made in cooperation with pininfarina / apart from minor details, this colt-based prototype accurately previews the forthcoming colt convertible / this is how the japanese carmaker advertises its arrival in the compact hardtop convertible market, where it will compete with opel tigra twintop, nissan micra c+c and forthcoming peugeot 207 cc / despite being based on a mini-mpv, the colt coupé-cabriolet concept doesn't appear to be much roomier than its 4-seat rivals : rear seats seem hardly usable
