This is a one of a kind custom car that has been professionally built and maintained.  All mechanical and electrical work has been in my shop by ASE Master Certified Technicians.  This car has 61k original miles however many of the parts have much less due to upgrades.  All fluids have been changed on or before their factory recommended intervals.  The car has a clean title, NO accidents, no rust, and has rarely seen the rain.  There are no fluid leaks and the car runs like new.  The car is stored in my garage (in a smokefree environment) with a battery tender to keep battery at peak charge and the engine is run twice a month during the winter months to help keep the seals in wet and in prime condition. 

The Eclipse has been in the DUB Show, HIN, and many, many others.  You can find clips of her on Youtube under Hot Import Nights Minneapolis. 

The custom wide body, paint and body molding designed and installed by ABCD.  (Auto Body Cosmetic Designs)  Door handles, factory water lines, rear wiper, and antenna have been shaved.  The interior panels, seats, trunk and dash have been leather wrapped by Apollo Interior Trim Works.  Original carpet was removed and custom color matched carpet installed. 

Interior has been dynomatted for stereo system and custom sub box was made with the proper dimensions for the subs to produce the best sound possible.

Thank you for looking and happy bidding.

Mitsubishi exec says Evo 'will be replaced in spirit' by high-po hybrid SUV

Thu, 02 Oct 2014

Stop us if you've heard this one: According to Autocar, the current generation will be the last Mitsubishi Evolution we will ever see.
That, while unfortunate for driving enthusiasts, is a reality we've had plenty of time to digest. The days of wanton fuel burning for the sake of speed and power will soon come to an end. But that doesn't mean the days of performance have to die, too. "Green is still fun to drive," said Mitsubishi UK boss Lance Bradley in a conversation with Autocar. "It's a challenge to make it fun, but not a particularly difficult one. Electric vehicle performance is very good."
So, should we expect a new hybrid sedan to take up the mantle left by the Evo? Not so much. The British magazine quotes Kanenori Okamoto of Mitsubishi as saying, "It will be replaced in spirit by an SUV with high performance," which will apparently incorporate lessons learned in the automaker's efforts at Pikes Peak. The Mitsubishi MiEV Evolution III, which handily broke the EV record at the famed mountain course, will donate much of its high-performance, zero-emissions technology to the project, including its Super All Wheel Control four-wheel-drive system.

Subprime financing on the rise in new car sales, leasing too

Fri, 07 Dec 2012

We all remember the financial crisis that began several years back. At its core was a splurge of subprime lending for housing loans. The housing bubble burst, triggering a collapse of the mortgage-backed securities market. Apparently, those types of loans still exist in the automotive industry, and the market share for these types of "nonprime, subprime, and deep subprime," loans has grown 13.6 percent compared to the third quarter a year ago.
According to an Automotive News report, high-risk lending expanded to 24.8 percent of total loans in Q3, up from 21.9 percent for this time last year. As this level increased, average credit scores of borrowers dropped to 755, down from 763 a year ago. In that time, the average financing amount increased $90 per vehicle, to $25,963.
At 818, Volvo maintains the highest per-owner credit score, while Mitsubishi has the lowest, at 694. The highest rate of borrowers was at Toyota, with 14 percent of the market, followed by Ford with 13.1 percent and Chevrolet at 11.1.

Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV faces longer delays, might not arrive until 2016

Thu, 22 May 2014

It seems every time the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV makes the news the information concerns a delay, and the reason always centers on its batteries. Four months ago the culprit was restricted battery supply from Lithium Energy Japan, pushing the arrival to 2015. This time it's no different, with Automotive News reporting that a battery-related request made by California state regulators will push the Outlander PHEV arrival back to "late 2015 or early 2016."
CA authorities want all plug-in hybrids to be fitted with a monitor for the lithium-ion batteries that will be on the lookout for degradation, the concern being that diminished batteries could change the vehicle's emissions. Getting the technology fitted and tested means something like a 16- to 22-month delay.
The extra time, however, should let Mitsubishi figure out what it's going to do about its battery supply since the current level of 4,000 per month isn't enough to support a US launch; the Automotive News article says Mitsubishi expects a volume of 63,000 plug-ins for 2016. The company hasn't said how it plans to make up the balance.
