Every good story has an end- our favorite JDM discontinued.

And there they go, the best cars Japan has to offer and the best cars that the world has ever seen - We will never see them again. Mitsubishi has announced that Lancer Evolution will be discontinued. The new 2011 STi is the last STi. S2000 was discontinued in '09. NSX in '04. RX-8 is simply a shadow of a car that was discontinued nearly 10 years ago and that too will be soon discontinued. What are we left with? The GTR, IS-F, LF-A, Civic Si and some random German BS. Ford finally stepped in the game with their Boss 302 but there's no one to compete against anymore. If you want to feel that VTEC in the NSX, you will have to find a used one- which is just as hard as climbing the mount Everest- possible and yet impossible at the same time. RX-7 are all turned into project cars, Integra Type-R costs 20,000 dollars and Supras are all raped. There are rumors that the new Evo 11 (which will be JDM only) will have a diesel engine- A DIESEL! Well, it sure was a fun ride, but I guess it's time to say goodbye, and hope that in future we will see JDM cars return, better than ever.
