History:
Car has been driven responsibly by me, the single owner since new in July 2009
Maintenance records available, car maintained to Severe schedule
Car has participated in one NASA HPDE track day, Group 1. Aproximately 80 minutes of 7/10 driving.
Car has participated in about 15-20 SCCA/ AmericanAuto-X events. Approximately 5-6 minutes of 10/10 driving each.
Car has done about 5 launches, but zero on new clutch.
Car sees about 400 miles/ week of commute driving 5:30am-6:30am and 7pm-8pm.
Original Brembo Rotors, front pads replaced at 40k, rear pads replaced at 60k. Plenty of pads remaining since I do mostly highway driving.
Original rims, sway bar, air filter, antenna, cat-back exhaust available.
Additional OEM Catalytic Converter available with <10k miles on it.
Front license plate has never been installed and there are no holes in the bumper.

The Bad:
Cosmetic damage on hood and bumpers as shown in photographs. It has never been in a collision, but it has an above average amount of dents due to being parked in Downtown Berkeley/ San Francisco.
Car takes 3-4 seconds of cranking or two 1 second intervals of cranking to start, but always starts.

This car has been a blast to drive for the last 5 years, but as I'm now in my 30's I think I need something a little more grown-up. It's also a shame to put so many freeway miles on a car that is meant to be driven enthusiastically. I'd love to sell it to somebody who will continue to take great care of the car and race it once in a while. With some coil-overs and an E85 tune, this will be an absolute track beast. I expect the motor to be good for another 50-60,000 miles, at which point you'll probably want to put in a stroker with a bigger turbo. Even without the wing, this car still gets a large amount of attention, but in the 5 years I've had it I've never been pulled over or cited for a traffic violation- maybe because it has no wing. I have collected about 6 tickets from meter maids for not having a front plate, but it's worth the price to keep the front end looking great. If you have any concerns about the state of the car, I'm happy to put you in touch with my mechanic or take it to your mechanic.

No Test Drives.
If you're serious about buying the car, I'll take you for a drive.
If you bring a cashier's check, you can drive it before we sign documents.

Car is being posted for sale on Craigslist, AutoTrader and EvoXForums.

2013 Mitsubishi Outlander GT

Wed, 30 Jan 2013

I'm not a gambling man, but if there were a pool for an automotive death watch, my money would be on Mitsubishi... Lincoln is a close second. To understand the plight of Mitsubishi, you only have to look at its current lineup; they all just look, feel and drive about 10 years older than they really are. With the departure of the Endeavor and merciful killing of the Eclipse (the Galant lives on, but is on hiatus for the 2013 model year), one of the worst remaining offenders is the Mitsubishi Outlander, which I recently drove in top-level GT trim for this Quick Spin.
If we had a time machine and took the 2013 Outlander GT back to 1998, it would be revolutionary. If we could take it back to 2004, it might be near the top of its class. But in the current highly competitive crossover segment of today, the Outlander just falls short. Yes, the all-new 2014 Outlander is on its way later this year, but from what we've seen both inside and out, the new design would look great in 2008. That being said, spending a week with any vehicle can point out surprising highs as well as lows, and there are still plenty of reasons to enjoy Mitsu's midsize CUV.

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.

Fiat taps Mitsubishi for European pickup

Wed, 04 Jun 2014

Mitsubishi is often derided in the US for its relatively boring lineup, Lancer Evolution aside, but the company is on the upswing worldwide, recently posting record global operating profits. The Japanese automaker may get a further boost in the near future from a rumored pickup truck deal with Fiat.
According to insider sources speaking to Automotive News Europe, Mitsubishi would reportedly build a variant of its widely respected L200 pickup truck for the Fiat Professional brand in Europe and Latin America starting in 2016. The L200 is larger than the Fiat Strada front-wheel-drive pickup already available in those markets, and it's available in rear- and four-wheel-drive configurations. The idea of adding a midsize truck to the commercial lineup was in the Fiat-Chrysler Automobiles five-year plan, but it didn't include any mention of a partnership to build it.
At first blush, the Mitsubishi agreement seems like an odd move, given that Fiat already owns pickup truck specialists Ram. However, according to ANE, the company had at one time planned to use a version of a new Dodge Dakota pickup for duty in Europe and Latin America, but the model never came to fruition.
