1993 Mitsubishi 3000gt Base Coupe 2-door 3.0l Only 55,000 Miles! on 2040-cars

Year:1993 Mileage:55000
Location:

Indianapolis, Indiana, United States

Indianapolis, Indiana, United States

I'm selling my 1993 3000GT which I've owned since 1996.  I bought this car with about 20,000 miles on it, and have not driven it much.  In the last five years, it has probably had five miles put on it.  It has 55,000 miles on it right now, very low for a 20 year old car.  Car is completely stock other than an aftermarket Pioneer cd player.  I have never driven this car in winter but it has been outside.  Here's your chance to get a lower mileage 3000GT which hasn't been molested.

This car hasn't been driven in years.  It will probably need a tuneup or to be looked over before driving daily.  It does start, though sometimes it turns over for 20-30 seconds before catching.  Once started it will run and can be driven.  The check engine light is on.  The car nas a new battery.  No other work has been done in at least five years.  So you can imagine it will need something -- oil change, tuneup, plugs, etc.

This car does have some paint loss.  The back deck has spots where you're down to a primer.  The passenger side mirror also has issues.  The top edge of the driver's door has the same problem.  This car was not driven in the winter, but the paint in some areas is certainly worn and will need to be addressed.  This car had some hail damage in 2006 or 2007 that was fixed, so the roof and some areas do have new paint on them.  Front Mitsu star is no longer red, has faded and looks off-white. Paint the back deck and passenger mirror and you'd have a sharp looking car.

Car has a tint job that's many years old, it's bubbling in many places.  See the pictures.

Interior is clean and lightly used.  Leather wrapped wheel, shift knob, brake all have age cracking in leather.  Car has an aftermarket CD player from the same 1993-95 vintage.   Works, but power antenna in back does not raise.

Dash has a small crack up front.  Vents are loose under windshield.  Wipers need replaced.  Some light rust on black trim area where wipers sit.  Nothing serious.  

I ran a car with this miles through Kelly Blue Book in fair condition (the worst condition they had) and it said $4600.  I know this car will need some work so I'm starting below that.

Mitsubishi Evo snow frolic caught by aerial camera

Tue, 30 Apr 2013

Guido Tschugg is a professional mountain biker and a Red Bull-sponsored athlete in downhill and four-cross. He's also a fan of the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution and drifting in the snow, and with the help of filmmaker Mario Feil and drone videographers airv8, the rally car and the powder are combined to glorious effect.
We could continue talking about it, but that would delay you from enjoying the two minutes of frosty beauty in the video below.

Mitsubishi wants to bring a plug-in hybrid Montero to the US

Fri, 27 Dec 2013

As Mitsubishi's turnaround takes hold, we can talk less about the company's survival in the US market and more about what kinds of products we might see in the future: there's a hybrid Evo on the way and its joint venture with Renault-Nissan will deliver a C-segment sedan. Furthermore, it might even deliver a dividend to its shareholders next year.
In addition to Mitsubishi announcing its intent to focus on SUVs, pickup trucks and crossovers, company president Osamu Masuko gave an interview to Automotive News saying that the plan is for model lines to have two or three power train options: gas, plug-in hybrid, diesel. Believing that fuel economy standards will force the expansion of the plug-in hybrid market, Masuko wants to bring a PHEV Pajero to the US (the Montero in our market) because it will restore the brand's place in the full-size SUV segment with a well known nameplate, and help the company reach its goal of making PHEVs 20 percent of its product offering.
We love the idea of a new Montero - and we hope there's a traditional gas model that would come with the PHEV - the question is what would it look like? The Concept GC-PHEV we saw at the 2013 Tokyo Motor Show could offer clues, but with Masuko listing the SUV as the company's second most popular model behind pickups, how daring could designers get with it? On the other hand, if you compare the Concept PX-MiEV shown at Tokyo in 2011, the similarity to the production Outlander is more than one might expect for a crossover that's become a major seller for the brand. With an introduction due in 2015 or 2016, we shouldn't have to wait long to find out. Regrettably, there's still no word on the return of a Mitsubishi pickup truck.

Mexican police seize engine-powered drug cannon

Fri, 01 Mar 2013

It seems like we're always hearing about new ways in which people are trying to smuggle things into the US from Mexico - including simply driving over the wall. Case in point? Mexican police have found yet another way criminals are attempting to get drugs over the border. Mexicali police have seized what looks to be either a Mitsubishi Mighty Max or Dodge Ram 50 pickup, equipped with what is essentially an oversized spud gun in the bed used to shoot marijuana over the border.
Constructed from a metal tank and a large plastic pipe, The Guardian reports that this drug cannon actually uses a car engine to build up enough air pressure to launch up to 13 kilos of marijuana at a time. Mexicali police were alerted to this truck when their US counterparts found drug packages on this side of the border. As of yet, there is no word as to how the vehicle was caught and whether any arrests resulted.
