1998 Mitsubishi 3000 GT Black w/Tan Leather Interior

Baby on the way! Must sell! Low Reserve!

Beautiful car! I purchased this car in March/April 2013 after searching for months for an outstanding well cared for 3000 GT. I am extremely picky with my cars. The car had approximately 50,000 original miles when purchased, the odometer currently reads 57,181. Running Mobil 1 fully synthetic motor oil with Mobil 1 oil filter. I have all repair and maintenance receipts, just ask and I will scan and email them.  The car looks awesome, please see all pictures. No leaks, cold A/C. Current Virginia safety and emissions inspection. After market Kenwood stereo with hands free blue tooth, single CD and MP3. Custom tinted windows by LA Tint. Mitsubishi valve stem caps. Car is nearly 100% stock, excluding the cold air intake, stereo and white front side marker lights (replaced the stock amber lights). Only interior wear is on driver’s seat as you slide in and out of the car. Car runs straight as an arrow down the road. The one reported accident was when I was stopped at a stop light and I was tapped in the rear and my drivers side bumper cover and plastic side skirt were damaged. This was a low impact. Both the bumper and rocker panel side skirt were replaced with factory OEM parts at a USAA recommended body shop. Receipt and details available upon request.

2 Sets of Keys with Remote, Owners Manual, spare tire and jacking equipment

NEW:

Brand new tires and alignment (all tires are matching); Brand new tune up, plugs, wires, distributer cab and rotor; Brand new alternator; Brand new O2 sensors(all); Brand new ignition coil; Brand new catalytic convertor; Brand new alternator belt and power steering serpentine belt; new battery

What it needs:

Please see detailed page attached. The Mitsubishi dealer checked the car from top to bottom and all ignition, fuel system, other system components came back 100% without issue; however the dealer suspects the car needs a new distributor. The car also needs rear brakes, may need calipers and rotors. Please also note the timing belt per the manufacturer is due at 60,000 miles.

This car has been well cared for and can be amazing. Turns heads and looks great going down the road. The car starts and runs, however I would recommend having it towed.

Title in Hand.

If you have questions, please ask before bidding. I will do my best to respond promptly. Thank you.

The reason I would consider having the car towed is because the dealer believes the car needs a distributor(please see detailed picture with dealers findings). The car starts immediately when cold and runs smooth and normal at that time, however when the car is warm it begins to hesitate and may stall.

My car is listed locally as well. Should it sell my auction could end early at my option. Bid soon!

2014 Mitsubishi Outlander

Tue, 19 Mar 2013

A Good Start On Halting The Slide
We'd like to say that Mitsubishi has had a tough time of it lately, but "lately" isn't exactly the proper descriptor since the brand's troubles have slowly built over the past decade or so. It cut back on its marketing and it cut model lines while leaving what remained in the equivalent of a product cryo-freeze. Then there was the financial crash and replacement models that didn't possess the same edge we expected from the house of the triple diamond. There was the lack of a North American chairman to fight for market-specific initiatives, and hence, models that lacked some of the details that US customers desired and that could sway buying choices in close races. True, that's a battle with an overseas headquarters that you'll hear from the US reps for almost every foreign automaker, but as you pile on the obstacles they multiply exponentially, not additionally. Or there's this: For more than a year, while its competition has been trumpeting new product, Mitsubishi hasn't had any new models. Like, at all.
That changes with the arrival of the 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander, an SUV that we're told will begin a new-product offensive over the next 18 months that - along with a much larger marketing budget - should begin to turn things around. This is the third generation of Mitsubishi's volume model, one that hasn't really been changed since it arrived in 2006 and wasn't just showing its age, but practically crowing about it.

Mitsubishi leaving US? No, it's doubling its marketing budget

Tue, 12 Feb 2013

We rarely hear any major news coming out of the National Automobile Dealers Association (NADA) annual meeting in Orlando, FL, but Mitsubishi executives found this a fitting place to announce a big push for increased advertising here in the US. A report in Automotive News states that the struggling Japanese automaker is returning to advertising in prime time television for the first time since 2005, with the push slated to begin in June and July for the launch of the 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander shown above.
Despite dwindling sales and a shrinking lineup, Mitsubishi's new North American chairman, Gayu Uesugi, has said on multiple occasions that the automaker has no plans to abandon the US market. Spending extra money on marketing and advertising should be a good start to help improve sales, but a lack of fresh and competitive products is also keeping showrooms empty. Aside from the new Outlander, the AN report says that Mitsubishi spokesman Roger Yasukawa said that a "yet-to-be-named subcompact" will arrive this year, which suggests the unnamed hatchback shown below (known elsewhere as the Mirage), could be heading to the US after its North American introduction at the Montreal Auto Show last month.

Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV Concept-S shows what a facelift can do [w/video]

Fri, 03 Oct 2014

Sometimes you need a second chance to get things right. Technologically, the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV is a pretty cool vehicle, with a 2.0-liter four-cylinder and additional electric motors providing more thrust. However, the CUV never really looked the part for all of its innovation. The Mitsubishi designers are taking another crack with the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV Concept-S at the 2014 Paris Motor Show, and the vehicle shows what a massive improvement some tweaks can make.
The most obvious of these changes is the completely different front end with a more vertical design. The headlights are reshaped with LED running lights outlining them, and the new airdam that puts a massive X right on the front grille in black and chrome with some more LEDs down below. The designers don't stop there and have a major revision to the rear with taillights running all the way across. Inside, there's black wood grain trim and leather seats.
The update takes the CUV from boring to somewhat exciting, and the even better news is that some of these updates might make it to a rumored refresh in 2016 that could even come here. Scroll down to watch Mitsubishi's teaser video for the Concept-S with more views of it and the company's full press release.
