It's time to sell my baby. I've run into some financial issues and have to sell asap. It's going to need a clutch job. It will run great for a while until the clutch decides to not disengage. I have to reach in past the front drivers side wheel, through the bolt access hole, rotate the motor maually by turning the crankshaft with a 22mm socket a couple rotations to free the clutch up and I works again. I've taken it to the dealership for a diagnostic and they say it's the throwout bearing going out which is always replaced during a clutch replacement and visa versa.
I simply cannot afford any more repairs. About 2 months ago, I had to replace the alternator and at the same time replaced the timing belt, tensioner, alternator belt, power steering belt, water pump, and battery. The motor and transmission were rebuilt in 2009, about 20,000 miles ago. alot of other things were replaced then as well and I have alot of records of the repairs. I don't race it and I've always maintained it well, Mobile 1 synthetic every 3000 miles of course. It passed Arizona emissions about a month ago.
The wheels / tires are wider than stock it seams. The exhaust has been upgraded to 3" catback, nice deep exhaust sound, but the active exhaust is disconnected for it. The struts were aftermarket when I got the car and the ecs wasn't operational. I replaced those struts with used oem ones.The rear wheel steering still works though. The brakes have been upgraded to the "Mitsubishi Big Brake Kit". The CD player is aftermarket with an amp in the back and a custom box behind the rear seat with two 8in(I think, haven't measured) woofers to save room. The A/C started blowing warm at the end of last summer. The speedometer starts working at about 45mph and above, but doesn't show anything below that. The paint was oxidized on the top surfaces so the previous owner painted over it and didn't do a good job, needless to say, it needs paint. There are some dents on the side panels from doors hitting it in the apartment complex but no accidents or frame damage of any kind. The body lines are straight and the side panels have original paint.
When the clutch is working correctly, this thing runs awesome, lots of power, awesome handling, and smooth shifting. This car is a classic now and I'm going to miss it.
Also, I'm including a Valor 7" LCD in dash folding screen DVD / CD player (not installed), slightly used in a different vehicle, like new, with remote. Also a new Hallman boost controller (never intstalled), and a new Covercraft bra (not installed).
Good Luck.

Mitsubishi previews new Attrage global sedan
Tue, 21 May 2013It's been about a month since we first saw the Mitsubishi Concept G4 at the Shanghai Motor Show, but now the automaker has revealed the first images for the sedan in production trim. Wearing the Mitsubishi Attrage nameplate, this sedan will go on sale this summer in Thailand and could eventually makes its way to the US. Despite being essentially a sedan version of its subcompact Mirage, Mitsubishi refers to the Attrage as its next-generation global compact sedan, suggesting it's a fair bit larger than its hatchback counterpart.
We only have this single image to go on, but the new Attrage obviously has the same overall look as the Concept G4. As expected, it does lose some of the more conceptual bits, including the fancy headlights, grills and wheels. While the styling has us thinking back to the late 1990s, the true advantage of the Attrage is likely to be its fuel consumption. US fuel economy for the Attrage hasn't been released, but the closely related 2014 Mirage is expected to return 37 miles per gallon in the city and 44 mpg on the highway using the same 1.2-liter inline four-cylinder engine paired with either a five-speed manual or a continuously variable transmission. Scroll down for the brief press release for the Thai-built Attrage.
This Mitsubishi dealer's rap ad is so bad it's awesome
Fri, 28 Feb 2014Sometimes you stumble upon something online that is so incredibly, bad that there is actually something great about. With that in mind, Southside Mitsubishi in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, might have created one of the worst/best automotive raps we've ever seen.
While there is no way the dealership went into this video thinking it would actually be good, it's hard to imagine it could have ended up so incredibly cheesy. Whether it's the frontman who looks like Vladimir Putin on his worst day ever, the extras who clearly don't want to be there or the inexplicable reference to that Baha Men classic, "Who Let The Dogs Out?" this video is a black hole of suffering - there is no escape. We knew things were bad at Mitsubishi, and man, this isn't helping.
Scroll down to inflict this awful awesomeness on yourself, and remind yourself of the infamous Swagger Wagon from Toyota to see that not all ironic automotive rapping has to be painful.
Consumer Reports says these are the worst new cars of 2014
Thu, 27 Feb 2014Consumer Reports has announced its annual list of worst vehicles, a cringe-inducing contrast to its list of top vehicles. Ignominiously leading the way in 2014 is Chrysler, which has a staggering seven models listed.
Jeep nearly sweeps the small SUV segment by itself, with its Compass, Patriot and 2.4-liter version of the new Cherokee, while the only midsize sedans listed by CR were the Chrysler 200 and Dodge Avenger. The new Dodge Dart and the Dodge Journey round out CR's condemnation of Chrysler.
Ford is taking heat as well, with the Taurus, Edge and their counterparts from Lincoln all listed as the worst vehicles in their respective segments. Toyota doesn't fare much better, with its Lexus IS, Scion iQ and tC also making the list.
