Thank you for taking the time to look at my auction.  This is a 1999 Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX  with 69,381 ORIGINAL miles.  It has always been well maintained, oil changed every 2,000 miles with fully synthetic oil.  I believe I am the 2nd owner, having owned this car since around 2005.  It has an upgraded turbo, fuel pump, internals and honestly too many things to list.  Over the years and through many moves I have lost most of my paperwork on it, so I can't really list what all have been done anymore.  Recently I had about $2,000 worth of work done just to ensure everything was tip-top.  Ball joints, stage 2 clutch, flywheel, brakes and so on.  This car is not perfect by any means.  It runs almost flawlessly, it is a beast.  It pushes roughly 400 HP (never dynoed) at 19 pounds of boost. 

I really don't want to sell it, mostly because this is the rarest of the Eclipses ever made.  There were very few GSX models made in 99 with black on black, and only about half of those were manual.  This car is very fun to drive, and extremely fast. I am only selling it because I simply do not drive it enough.  The most I have ever driven it in one year is about 1,000 miles, which is just not enough for a car like this.

It currently sits in a garage undriven.  It does not come with a radio, but all the wiring is present.  You can see from the pictures all the gauges, however boost is the only functioning one currently.  The EGT and APEXi both work along with the push button start. The headliner is coming off, and there is a stain on the passenger mat, which are the only real interior flaws.

Any reasonable offers would be considered.

Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV is world's first production plug-in hybrid CUV [w/video]

Fri, 28 Sep 2012

Though Mitsubishi first showed us the form of its 2013 Outlander in Geneva a while back, the company saved its plug-in hybrid crossover for this week's Paris Motor Show soiree.
Mitsubishi is quite proud to offer what it says is the world's first production PHEV utility vehicle, a new model that makes use of established technologies within the company. Learnings from the company's i-MiEV electric car have worked there way into a vehicle that can travel up to 55 kilometers (34 miles) on lithium-ion battery power. Two electric motors independently power the front and rear wheels of the Outlander, while the gasoline-powered engine can be used as a generator for the motors, or to power the vehicle directly. The target combined fuel economy for the Outlander PHEV is 61 km/liter, or roughly 143 miles per gallon.
The Outlander PHEV will be introduced in the Japanese market in the first part of 2013, with European and North American markets to follow on. There is no word about an on-sale date, but while you're pondering the possibilities, check out an official video by scrolling down and peruse our high-res image gallery.

Mitsubishi recalling i-MiEV models for brake problem

Thu, 02 Oct 2014

Mitsubishi is issuing a recall for the 2010-2014 i-MiEV that affects 1,810 units of the little electric car, because it's possible for the brake vacuum pump to stop working. If this happens, the result would be longer stopping distances, according to the company. The affected models were built between September 15, 2009, and March 25, 2014.
While this is just a single recall, there are actually two things that can cause this brake problem on the i-MiEV, according to Mitsubishi's filing with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. First, bad programming in the EV-ECU could cause the system to "falsely judge that the relay contact point is stuck," according to the full NHTSA defect notice PDF. Second, the vacuum pump exhaust hole could be corroded and blocked due to being splashed with road salt. However, the company says that if either fault happens, the brake warning lamp would illuminate, and there would be an audible alarm.
Depending on which issue is affecting an owner's i-MiEV, Mitsubishi is going to reprogram the software, replace the pump or both. Scroll down to read the recall report from NHTSA.

Mitsubishi's first US chairman since 2007 charged with revitalizing brand

Fri, 02 Nov 2012

Have a look at Mitsubishi North America's vehicle page and you'll find seven cars in four model lines: i-MiEV electric hatch, Lancer sedan, Lancer Evolution and Sportback, Outlander and Outlander Sport, and Galant sedan. The Galant has 3.9 tires in the automotive grave, and the only hope for mainstream excitement, the Eclipse coupe and Spyder, had hemlock poured down their crankcases last year. Increasing the quotient of bleak, the Lancer isn't due for a refresh until 2014, the coming Outlander PHEV will sell in miniscule numbers when it does arrive, a little sports car has been nixed and the only other Mitsu being considered for our landmass is the Colt, which, for its stellar fuel economy numbers, looks like a car designed by Pikachu. There's also that matter of declining NA market share in a rising overall market, Mitsubishi's piece of the total pie currently hovering around the 0.4-percent mark according to Automotive News.
The company has decided to do more about it, reassigning Executive Vice President and Head Officer of the Headquarters Product Projects & Strategy Group Gayu Uesugi to be the new chairman of Mitsubishi Motors North America. It will be the first time in five years that someone has filled the chairman position at MMNA.
The hope is that with Uesugi's 35 years with the company, his experience in the company's global product plan and his success in emerging market strategy, he's the man to "[develop] a product plan and growth strategy for the US market" that will put things right. Or at least better. He will work with Yoichi Yokozawa, who has been CEO of MMNA since last year. There are more details on the move in the press release below.
