Summary:
|
Quietly capable, elegantly understated
By Professional Test Driver, NewCarTestDrive.com
Although the Diamante Wagon has a lot going for it, it is expensive. The base price of more than $28,000 seems high (al-though the long list of standard features offsets sticker shock to some extent), and the few options that are available will run the tab up quickly. At a minimum, you'll want to order the ABS, which adds almost $2000 to the total. Ordering the other four extras (CD player, leather upholstery, sunroof and remote keyless entry system) will push the Diamante Wagon's tab up toward $33,000 even before taxes and license fees are figured in. Granted, Mitsubishi touts the Diamante as an alternate choice to luxury class offerings from BMW, Mercedes and Volvo. That's pretty high-class company and, if you perceive the Diamante as a member of this clan, the high price seems more than reasonable. That seems to be a perceptual stretch, though. And more realistic comparisons - with the Camry and Sable wagons, for example - put the Mitsubishi at a price disadvantage that its comprehensive standard equipment list doesn't quite counter. In the end, as always, it's a question of money and how much of it you're willing to spend. There's nothing wrong with the Diamante Wagon, and much to praise. Whether it's good enough to justify the cost is a matter for you and your checkbook to decide. |

Overview:
|
If the station wagon share of the U.S. new car market is small, then the space taken up in that segment by the luxury wagons is downright minuscule. At the present time, there are only a few players on this tiny field. Depending on your definition of the term luxury wagon, entries can be said to range from the Mercury Sable and Toyota Camry to the Volvo 960 and BMW 525i Touring, ending on the high side with the Mercedes 300TE. Mitsubishi is something of an upstart among luxury wagon builders. The company name is reasonably well-known, in large part because of a long-standing relationship with Chrysler, but few buyers are as yet aware that Mitsubishi offers a wagon version of its Diamante sedan. In fact, the Diamante sedan is not exactly a high-profile vehicle, either in concept or in sales figures. That's not to say that it's unattractive. In many respects, the big Mitsubishi 4-door is a class leader, scoring points for comfort, performance and manufacturing quality. The simple fact of the matter is that word of the Diamante's many virtues just hasn't gotten out to the public yet. What's true for the Diamante sedan applies equally to the wagon. It's an extremely pleasant vehicle, competitive in just about every respect with its more familiar opponents such as the Camry and the Sable. The fact that the Mitsubishi brand name may lack the panache of some ritzier badges shouldn't deter potential buyers from checking out the features of this entry-level luxury wagon.
