1995 Mitsubishi 3000gt Sl Red On Black Leather Interior Low Miles Needs Repair on 2040-cars
Mission Viejo, California, United States
My 3000GT SL was purchased in May 1998. I am the second owner of the vehicle. The exterior color is Caracas Red and has a black leather interior. The car was babied and garage parked all the time. It comes from a non-smoker and I have all service records. It has a clean CARFAX history and clear title. It is not in running condition and needs repair. It will make a great project since it's still in good shape aside from issue #5 below. All major maintenance and issues encountered are listed below with repairs performed: 1) Automatic Climate Control with Display upgrade by Costa Mesa Mitsubishi on 07/22/1998. Cost was $2,057. 2) 60k miles service: Timing belt, water pump and all belts were replaced by Anaheim Mitsubishi dealer on 09/15/2001. Cost was $864. 3) Cold air problem: A/C evaporator was replaced by Anaheim Mitsubishi dealer on 06/26/2007. Cost was $850. 4) Auto Transmission was replaced and a separate transmission cooler with line were installed on 08/25/2007 at 90,667. Cost was $2000 5) Car was burning oil: Engine was rebuilt by Kar King Auto in Ontario CA on 11/11/2011 at 94,388 miles. Cost was $2200. 6) Timing belt pulley broke while driving vehicle on a street last May (2013). I didn't repair the issue and decided to sell the car. Therefore, I am selling it as is and the car is not running. The original SL wheels were upgraded to the VR-4 5-spoke chrome package. The manual climate control system was upgraded by the dealer to the automatic system that comes with the display unit. Current miles on the odometer: 105,089. So basically the new engine barely got 10k miles after it was rebuilt (looks new if you take the oil cap off) and new tranny got 15k miles. I am not very happy to part with this car but I have to make room. Maybe you have the time to repair it and take over so it will shine again. I will tow the vehicle anywhere you want for free up to 75 miles and I am available to show the vehicle if you are local to Orange County. Good luck! |

Japanese government chides Mitsubishi over recall delays
Sat, 27 Apr 2013An official with the transport ministry in Japan has some stern words for Mitsubishi, taking the carmaker to task for not being more proactive and honest about its recalls. An investigation into The Tri-Star last December found Mitsubishi was tardy investigating problems and didn't explain itself forthrightly to the transport ministry about the issues. None of Mitsubishi's actions were illegal, and we should stress that this is a dialogue with Mitsubishi in Japan, not Mitsubishi Motors North America.
The official advised the automaker to, "Come up with plans for improvement, implement them and report them to the ministry." It looks like the company will get more practice than it wants in that department, having to announce another recall for the Outlander PHEV over software and hardware glitches. Those recalls come just after Mitsu finally figured out the problem with overheating lithium-ion batteries that caused a production halt of the plug-in hybrid SUV.
Watch Mitsubishi break the EV record at Pikes Peak
Wed, 09 Jul 2014Take a listen folks - you're hearing the eventual future of motorsports. This is Greg Tracy and the Mitsubishi MiEV Evolution III as they assault the treacherous course at Pikes Peak in just 9:08.188.
This run is significant for a number of reasons. As we recapped in our Pikes Peak finale post, Tracy's run was a mere two seconds off the best overall time at this year's event, snagging him and Mitsubishi second place overall, as well as first in the Electric Modified class and the fourth fastest time ever recorded. Perhaps more importantly, though, Tracy thoroughly trounced the previous EV record at Pikes Peak, beating the legendary Nobuhiro "Monster" Tajima's 2013 best of 9:46.530.
It's an impressive feat, and now you can experience the whole run from as near a first-person viewpoint as you're going to get. Scroll down and have a look.
2014 Mitsubishi Outlander
Tue, 19 Mar 2013A Good Start On Halting The Slide
We'd like to say that Mitsubishi has had a tough time of it lately, but "lately" isn't exactly the proper descriptor since the brand's troubles have slowly built over the past decade or so. It cut back on its marketing and it cut model lines while leaving what remained in the equivalent of a product cryo-freeze. Then there was the financial crash and replacement models that didn't possess the same edge we expected from the house of the triple diamond. There was the lack of a North American chairman to fight for market-specific initiatives, and hence, models that lacked some of the details that US customers desired and that could sway buying choices in close races. True, that's a battle with an overseas headquarters that you'll hear from the US reps for almost every foreign automaker, but as you pile on the obstacles they multiply exponentially, not additionally. Or there's this: For more than a year, while its competition has been trumpeting new product, Mitsubishi hasn't had any new models. Like, at all.
That changes with the arrival of the 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander, an SUV that we're told will begin a new-product offensive over the next 18 months that - along with a much larger marketing budget - should begin to turn things around. This is the third generation of Mitsubishi's volume model, one that hasn't really been changed since it arrived in 2006 and wasn't just showing its age, but practically crowing about it.
