Condition: UsedA vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"It is in excellent running condition without any known internal issues, and none of the following defects impact its performance. This car was bought used, so I do not have any info on the listed accident for it, but I can say with certainty that any issues it caused back in 2003 have long since been fixed. The back windows aren't quite flush with the seal of the door, but this is only noticed when going faster than 60 mph, wherein the wind creates some minor whistling against them, which is what the reported frame issue is. The front bumper has a handful of small cracks and scuffs from being backed into, but not enough to compromise the bumper's safety purpose or really to make much of an aesthetic difference. The few other external cosmetic blemishes are just faint scratches from normal wear and tear and only noticeable up close. The leather on the bottom part of the driver's seat has some light cracking in it on the left side from use."

Don't miss out on a great vehicle like this!


Even without taking its age into consideration, this car is in fantastic condition.  The transmission was very recently checked for maintenance, without any problems being found, and it runs beautifully.  Beyond the few cracks in the front bumper, the only noticeable flaws in the exterior are one thin scratch a few inches long on the right side and some very minor scuffing at the very bottom of the back bumper.  Everywhere else is shiny and looks just about brand new, especially with the fresh paint job it received about a year ago.  A repair shop it was taken to for a check-up failed to close the hood all the way, and when it was driven onto the highway, it flew up and smashed the windshield, which means to avoid a lawsuit, the shop replaced both it and the hood and gave it that paint job, so you can also be sure that the windshield won't be prone to stress or failures any time soon.

This car is packed with tons of awesome features that you'll be sure to appreciate.  For when it's cold, there are heated front seats with a low and high setting for each, and for when it's hot, there is fully working air conditioning that gets nice and frigid in a matter of minutes even when it's 90+ degrees outside.  It also has cup-holders, a working radio, and CD player, as well as several lighter plug-ins for phone chargers or iPod players.  And in addition to all of the other great extras listed above, it has a very loud alarm system, so you can feel safe leaving it parked somewhere.  But if you set if off by accident, it's easy to deactivate with the key.

There wasn't a remote for this car when it was purchased, which means I unfortunately won't be able to include one, but there is a release for the trunk on the driver's side door, so you won't have to use the key to get it open.  Before it is sold, it will be getting an oil change and a thorough interior cleaning (though I keep it clean anyway).  The only reason I am selling this car is because I am moving to a big city, and it will be more cost effective for me to simply use the available public transport systems.  Otherwise, I'd be keeping it.  

Since I am not a dealer, the sale will be final.  Any assessments stated here are my own observations and honest opinions, not those of a professional.  The car will be available to pick up either in Bowling Green, KY or Nashville, TN depending on when it gets sold and/or per buyer's request.  I would also be willing to ship it so long as the buyer paid the shipping costs.  If you live in the area and would like to schedule a time to view the car before it is purchased, feel free to contact me.

Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV US launch delayed over battery shortage

Mon, 30 Dec 2013

Mitsubishi resumed full-scale battery production in August after a five-month shutdown due to a safety investigation. Supplier Lithium Energy Japan has been delivering 4,000 battery packs each month since September, but that's apparently still not enough to fill the overseas inventory pipeline for the Outlander PHEV and i subcompact EV while launching the Outlander PHEV here in the US. So instead of the previous tentative launch date of Fall 2014, the plug-in hybrid's Stateside on-sale date has been pushed back until 2015.
That's according to Automotive News, which also notes that Mitsubishi has sold 11,300 plug-in Outlanders this year, though that number reflects the production stoppage over the battery issues. As of April, battery supplier LEJ will be able to supply 5,000 packs per month just for the Outlander, but company president Osamu Masuko has gone on record saying that production will have to rise above that in order to make the US launch.
Every Mitsubishi dealer (and hopefully a fair number of consumers) will be looking forward to a crossover that, for the moment, doesn't really have natural rivals. The Outlander PHEV can drive 32 miles on electricity alone, has a top speed of 75 miles per hour in EV mode and offers all-wheel drive with a towing capacity of over 3,000 pounds. The model should get an impressive MPGe rating from the EPA when it finally arrives and it figures to be a bellwether for the plug-in Outlander Sport and Pajero utility vehicles that are expected to arrive after it. Hopefully 2015 will be its year.

Your 2013 Pikes Peak Hill Climb primer: "Donuts at 14,000 feet."

Sun, 30 Jun 2013

The teams have all set up their pits and paddocks for today's run of the 91st Pikes Peak International Hill Climb, and there's nothing left to do but take a shot at the title. At 8 am Mountain time (9 am EST / 7 am PST), the first of a field of 83 bikes and 63 cars - whittled from an original field of 157 - will race 12.42 miles through 156 turns from the start gate at 9,390 feet to the summit finish at 14,110 feet. The summit is where we'll be all day, having arrived on the media bus at around 5 am and not allowed to come down until the race is finished. If it's anything like last year that could mean a 14-hour day on the top munching on donuts at the summit café, begging for hits of pure oxygen and trying to stay hydrated and warm...
Here are the event with Hyundai, we enjoyed dinner with Rhys Millen got his take on what's happened and what's about to happen. Millen said the issue that caused his engine swap last week was minor, a head gasket (a production part) that was causing a bit of hesitation and a slight drop in top speed. He said it's the first time they've stressed the engines this hard, pushing boost pressures up to 19 psi at altitude, which equates to 25 psi at sea level. Offering testament to the strength of the engines, though, he said that Paul Dallenbach's engine did the entire 2012 drift season as well as Pikes Peak, and it's the engine being used again for the hill climb this year.
We also chatted with Dallenbach, who has come back from that beastly crash last year in the Unlimited category to lead almost every practice day this year in the Time Attack class. Telling us he's happier behind the wheel this year than he has been in 20 years, he asked us, "Know what my dashboard says when I turn the car on? 'Donuts at 14,000 feet.'"

Mitsubishi previews 2014 Outlander and 2013 Outlander Sport Limited Edition

Thu, 15 Nov 2012

We've seen the new Mitsubishi Outlander in European form a few times already, but the 'ute has yet to make its roaring debut in the States. That's soon to be rectified, as Mitsubishi has formally announced plans to show the US-sped 2014 Outlander at the upcoming LA Auto Show.
Mitsubishi promises that the 2014 Outlander will be "among the most fuel-efficient compact [crossovers] with seven-passenger seating as standard." In addition to its new aerodynamic bodywork, the 2014 Outlander will bring with it advanced tech like Forward Collision Mitigation, Lane Departure Warning and Adaptive Cruise Control, each with its own fancy sounding acronym.

Also on display will be a new Limited Edition of the 2013 Outlander Sport. Said to commemorate the brand's 30 years in America, the LE will boast blacked-out side mirrors, center bumper (whatever that means...), wheel arches and roof rails. Other tweaks include dark-chrome alloy wheels and the necessary badging. Interestinglu, Mitsubishi says it has fitted a new balance shaft to make the 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine a smoother operator.
