Year:1995 Mileage:105089 Color: is Caracas Red and has a black leather interior
Location:

Mission Viejo, California, United States

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!

Mitsubishi reveals mid-term plans including redesigned pickup, SUV and new PHEVs

Tue, 12 Nov 2013

Struggling automaker Mitsubishi seems adamant that it will soldier on across the globe. Just last week, we told you how the brand would begin selling a pair of rebadged, Korean-built, Renault-Samsung sedans in the US market, and now comes an official statement from Mitsubishi about a mid-term business plan called "New Stage 2016."
As part of the plan, a number of products not sold in the US, like the Triton pickup, Pajero Sport SUV and Delica D:5 will be new or significantly updated, while we'll be seeing a second-generation Outlander Sport within the next few years. Some of these new or updated models may be previewed at the Tokyo Motor Show later this month. There will also be an increased focus on the brand's plug-in hybrid technology.
In fact, that technology will play a big role in Mitsubishi's revitalization, as it rolls out its own competitor to Honda's Earth Dreams and Mazda's Skyactiv technology, called @earth Technology (yes, seriously). It's unclear if @earth Technology will develop into an overarching philosophy like Mazda has done with Skyactiv, but with Mitsubishi pushing so hard with hybrids and EVs - part of its deal for those Renault-Samsung sedans was that it would develop EV tech with Nissan-Renault - if we did see an @earth Technology badge on a car, we'd wager that it'd be powered, to some degree, by electricity.

Say Hello to the Kitty edition Mitsubishi Mirage

Wed, 30 Oct 2013

Japan is the country that gave us the GT-R, the LFA and the STI. But it's also the home of Hello Kitty. We try our best to ignore the commonality, but now Mitsubishi is putting it right in our faces with the new Hello Kitty edition Mirage.
Decked out in pink, the special Mirage arrives on the occasion of the character's 40th anniversary. It comes decked out with Hello Kitty decals on the outside, special hubcaps and unique upholstery. It's even got a Hello Kitty pillow inside, for crying out loud.
Fortunately, only 400 examples will be made, hopefully only for domestic consumption, wearing a sticker price of 116,970 yen (equivalent to about $12k). Now we wish we could say this was a first, but sadly it's not - not even for Mitsubishi.

Mitsubishi recalling 2011 Outlander Sport over panoramic roofs that may fly off

Tue, 02 Jul 2013

The panoramic roof offered on the 2011 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport is a great way to make the cabin feel more open, but some owners of the compact CUV could get a little more openness than they bargained for. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration announced a recall for Outlander Sport models built between August 2010 and March 2011 due to the possibility that the panoramic roof could fly off.
On about 3,200 Outlander Sport models in the US and Puerto Rico, a potentially improper installation process could have resulted in a lack of adhesive primer between the glass and the roof, which could allow the glass to detach from the vehicle and become dangerous debris on the road. Fortunately, it sounds like there have only been two instances of detached roofs, and neither was in the US. As a fix, Mitsubishi dealers will check to make sure the primer was used, and if not, the glass will be reinstalled following the proper procedure. Scroll down for the official NHTSA recall notice.
