Up for sale is a 1995 Mitsubishi 3000GT VR-4. The vehicle is moded to 400+ hp. She’s in great shape except for the issues noted below. Top of the line for that year. Twin-Turbo (320hp stock), All-wheel drive, all-wheel steering, GETRAG 446 manual transmission, Active Aero package (see photos), leather interior and Infinity sound system with 6 disc CD changer. All four tires have greater than 75% tread and the wheels are still very clean. Title in hand. The body of the vehicle is free major dents or damage but she does have a couple of door dings, minor scratches and small bruises here and there – generally though she looks great (see photos). Interior is tan and the carpet is dirty but I used to own a 92 3000GT SL with black leather interior. The SL broke down on me years back but I removed the interior from it hoping to one day put it into this one, never got a chance but I still have the interior. It will be included if you want it to give her a black interior to go with the black exterior. CarFax is available and shows no prior accidents. Although, the rear bumper was red and painted over black at one point. It was like that when I bought it and I don’t know why that was done, the previous owner did not know why it was like that either. The upgrades to the car are: - HKS Double-Mushroom Air Filter - HKS Blow-off Valve - HKS Exhaust - HKS 60MM Peak Hold Boost Meter in the cockpit - HKS EVC (Electronic Valve Controller) a.k.a. Boost Controller - A’PEXi S-AFC II Air Flow/Fuel Converter - A’PEXi Turbo Timer - Denso Iridium IK24 Spark Plugs x6 Installation and user’s guide for the modifications will be provided. Also equipped with a Python Alarm system. Now for the issue. Two months ago I damaged piston number four and one of the two exhaust valves during a standing-start. The piston is cracked and the valve is bent. Due to the extra rich gases flowing through the EGR valve, it too has failed as indicated by the “Check Engine” light. I used an OBD to check it. The code was ‘43’ for an EGR valve flow error. Also, she has an oil leak coming from the oil pan gasket. The passenger side window does not come down. I disconnected the window control switch because, as I found out, one bushing in the window control motor had failed. I fixed it, I think, but disconnected the switch because I didn’t want to deal with taking the door panel off to fix it again. I have another window control motor and entire rail as a replacement. It will be included. The photos show that the front aero dam is torn, I am including a new replacement for it. The car still runs and in idle you cannot tell that one of the pistons is damaged. But upon accelerating or putting a load on the engine she will sputter. She can be driven around but not far and don’t expect to go fast, although she will get up to freeway speed in time. Both turbos are fully functional but the front turbo will not fully spool up, this because of the damaged piston and valve which don’t generate the proper exhaust pressure for that turbo. The price I’m asking makes this car a steal. The person(s) that take her and fixes her up will end up with a ride like few others. She stands out in the crowd and still draws attention even at her age. Before the engine got hurt she was a dream to ride. Very fast and gripped the road as though on rails. Don’t expect to drift her, all-wheel drive and all-wheel steering doesn’t allow that. Except maybe in the snow. |

Mitsubishi Motors halts some SUV sales in Japan as MPG scandal grows
Tue, Aug 30 2016Mitsubishi's fuel-economy scandal is going from bad to worse. First, the Japanese automaker claimed it lied about the fuel economy for a few kei cars, then it claimed fuel economy tests for as far back as 1991 could reveal mile-per-gallon figures that were tampered with. In May the automaker, admitted that every single vehicle it's sold in Japan could be affected by the fuel-economy scandal. Now, the Japanese automaker revealed that more of its vehicles were involved in the fuel-economy cheating scandal – and one of them is sold in the US. After completing its investigation into the automaker's fuel-economy scandal, Japan's Transport Ministry found that Mitsubishi overstated the fuel economy for eight more vehicles in marketing brochures, one of which is sold as the Outlander Sport in the US, reports Automotive News. The Transport Ministry ordered Mitsubishi to stop domestic sales of the models, which include the Pajero, Outlander, and RVR SUV (known as the Outlander Sport in the US). The latest finding adds to four kei cars that were previously noted for having overstated fuel economy figures earlier this year. Japan's sixth-largest automaker is having a hard time recuperating since the scandal broke earlier this April. The initial scandal led to the automaker suspending its sales, which caused a large dip in the automaker's market value. The scandal required Mitsubishi to seek financial assistance from Nissan, which agreed to buy a controlling 34-percent stake for $2.2 billion. Investigators hired by Mitsubishi to look into the automaker's overstated fuel economy figures revealed the company's "corporate culture" as the issue. More specifically, the investigators founds the company's pressure to improve fuel-efficiency figures, a lack of unity between divisions, and an unwillingness to accept fuel economy shortfalls as the reason for falsifying its vehicles' mpg figures. Mitsubishi is expected to compensate Japanese owners for the overstated fuel economy figures, which would result in a massive loss for the automaker. The company is expected to post a net loss of roughly $1.4 billion this year, pushing Mitsubishi into the red for the first time in approximately eight years.

Police search Renault headquarters as part of Ghosn probe
Wed, Jul 3 2019PARIS — Police are searching Renault's corporate headquarters in Boulogne-Billancourt, which a judicial source said was related to an ongoing investigation into ex-Renault boss Carlos Ghosn and his use of Versailles for his 2016 wedding party. L'Express magazine reported earlier on Wednesday that the search was being carried out in relation to Ghosn, who faces charges of misconduct. Ghosn has denied any wrongdoing and has been released on bail. L'Express added that French authorities were probing a wedding reception party held at the Chateau de Versailles in 2016 to mark the wedding of Ghosn to his second wife Carole, and a judicial source confirmed those elements to Reuters. Renault itself confirmed that police were searching its premises, but declined to comment on the subject of the search. "Renault confirms that a search by police is currently underway at its headquarters in Boulogne-Billancourt and Renault is co-operating fully with authorities," said the company, adding that it would not make any further comment on the matter. Earlier this year, Renault said it had found evidence that it had paid part of Ghosn's wedding costs and added it would turn the investigation over to prosecutors. Ghosn's Versailles wedding party in October 2016 had already drawn public scrutiny for its opulence and Marie Antoinette-themed costumes. Government/Legal Mitsubishi Nissan Renault Carlos Ghosn
Mitsubishi celebrates 30th anniversary in US with Outlander Sport Limited Edition
Thu, 29 Nov 2012The hurrah of the last kind for the Mitsubishi Outlander Sport is this Limited Edition that celebrates 30 years of Mitsubishi Motors in North America. Built in North America as well, the 2013 Outlander Sport Limited Edition gets numerous black trim pieces outside, such as the center bumper, side mirror housings, wheel arch trim and skirting and roof rails. It sits on special Argent wheels.
Open the doors and the darkness continues with available Dove Grey and Black leather seating, and black leather parking brake sleeve, all accented by aluminum brake and accelerator pedals. On this model the six-way power driver's seat is standard. The sole performance mod is a new balancer shaft that makes for quicker acceleration without any penalty in the mileage rating.
You can start saying goodbye to this generation of the Outlander Sport in the high-res gallery above, and read more about it in the press release below.
