Jackie Chan's Mitsubishi Roadster
In "Armor of God", Jackie was seen driving a silver Mitsu roadster that is propably not a production model...
does anybody know more about that car?

I just found out that it was propably also released under the name "Operation Condor"... It is a 1986 movie, and it features quite some screentime for bespoken Mitsubishi roadster, including a wild getaway scene against motorcycles.
By the way, this isn't the sort of trivia where you can expect the asking person to know the answer...  I would just like to know it myself and thought that this might be the right place to ask...

It was, I've seen it.
I know nothing about the cars, but knowing Jackie Chan, it was probably a one off car built just for the movie. Jackie Chan is sponsered by them or something like that.
EDIT-
LOL, Mercedes just beat me to the punch!

I've seen the movie.
It must have been some kind of prototype they made just for that movie.
In one scene the car pulls a batmobile style move and splits down the middle to expose a powered skateboard/ scooter thing that Jackie rides out of trouble.
That car was pretty cool, I wouldn't mind finding out more about it, so if anyone else knows, please post.
Anyone seen "who am I?" with jackie chan? also a movie with great driving scenes.
