Did Mitsubishi not spend considerable R&D designing a phenomenal car? Think of the huge list of things that they did right with these cars.

The Rubycon caps were not a poor choice at the time. It is unfortunate that they did not consider using a more temperature-tolerant grade of capacitor, however, look at how long other high-end sports cars last before breaking down.

This is an unfortunate reality of life, and I sympathize for those who have gotten burned by this issue, but things like this are better put in perspective.
