Up for sale  is my 1995 Mitsubishi Spyder VR4 with 56,500 miles.  Wife and I took it out this weekend to West Palm Beach FL and back, car is running awesome!   

Vehicle History

I purchased vehicle 2 years ago and drove 2,300 miles on an awsome trip down I10 from Arizona to Florida.  The auto was owned by a gentleman in his 60's, and I am in my 50's.  It appears the vehicle has spent most of its life in the low humidity of Arizona.  Currently it is in a dehumidified garage in Florida.  Of the 56,500 miles, I have put on 14,000 in the last two years.  The car has no damage history. The unique aspect of this vehicle is it's low milage coupled with being a daily driver over the past two years. Recently I have found and purchased a 1997 VR4 with 28,500 miles locally.  Being the 1997 VR4 makes 3 3000gt's at the house, thought it might be a good idea to skinny down to two.    I don't smoke, and the prior owner Ron did not smoke. The vehicle while in my possesiton has never been smoked in, the plastic ashtray does not have any burn marks or ashes the vehicle interior appearnce and fragrance is consistant with a vehicle which has never been smoked in.

Vehicle Condition

Exterior    The pictures taken we on 2/25/2013 and tell the story.  Most of the paint is original paint and although in near pristine condition, a close inspection will reveal scratches and some minor imperfections.  I had the trunk lid and convertible top repainted as the clear coat was showing its age.  The brand new paint and old look identical. 

Intererior    This is the origianl interior. The seats have some marks, as you can see in the picture, less than I would expect with a car of this age/miles.  Suprisingly the leading edge of the drivers seat (as you enter from the door) do not have the typical wear marks.

Mechanical     "Bone Stock" All maintenance is up to and ahead of date.  A full 60,000 mile maintenance is complete, including but not limited to timing belt, water pump, transmission inspection and flush, transfer case inspection, differential inspection, fuel filter, ICV, Fuel regulator - all the little stuff which will begin to cause issues.    New tires at 48,500 miles and the VR4 rims were cleaned and resealed so the tires will hold their air The tires appear to have 75% of its tread left.  Every button switch light system works on this car (well except one button)  The radio has two volume buttons one on the steering wheel and one  twist on/off button on the face of the radio.  The on off part works, but the twist part does change the volume, just never sure to what.  The steering wheel buttons work fine.  In 1995 and 1996 the radio has an AUX input which will accept Ipods/phone outputs.  Turbos sing like they should, and are original just like the rest of the car.  The trick to keeping your turbos happy and healthy is to allow the engine to cool (idle) before shut down.  The top works perfect.  Both hydrolic pumps which power the trunk and retractible hard top have had a complete flush and fresh hydrolic oil in July of 2012.  The only modification that has been done to this vehicle is the stock air cleaner has been replaced with a K&N air cleaner - Original air cleaner comes with car.

This car will not be what you expect.  I have beent he driver of this car for two years and have fixed and corrected any all issues to give to you a dream to drive.

 

Pro's & Con's

Pro

The vehicle had an extremly limited production run in 1995/1996 consequntly few are available.  Take into account this vehicle is original with low miles makes it a collectors car.  The Spyders (turbos and NA too) have been showing some appreciation in value on the market over the past few years.

This car gets phographed every 2000 miles or so (that I am aware of).    This is the only 3000GT (of the 4 I have owned) which gets photographed. It is a conversation piece wherever you go. You will be asked questions about it! 

Currently in service as a daily driver, ready to go cross county.  Would it be nice to get your new toy and fly in to Florida and go on a cross country drive to take her home?  She is ready fo the mission.

Low miles, Original, Mechanicaly up to date, No damage history, Never modded (except K&N air filter) - Original comes with the car for turning back to 100% stock.

Stored in low humidity Arizona and a dehumidified garage, extremly rust free undercarrige. - Don't underestimate the power of low humidity and its effect on corrosion as the vehicle ages.  This vehicle extremely is well perserved. 

ESC feature - Tour and Sport Suspension option - on some 95's and not on others, this one has it.

Florida title is in my hand

NO RESERVE this is a live auction!

Con's

Original paint and interior, has signs of ware far less to be expected with a vehicle of this age and miles.

2014 Maserati Ghibli

Wed, 26 Jun 2013

Italy Passionately Returns To The Sport Sedan Game
In its 99-year history, Maserati has arguably never made a vehicle as important as this all-new Ghibli.
Of course, there have been countless styling breakthroughs, mechanical advances and technical innovations, but no single passenger car has been required to bear the weight of the Italian company like its brand-new sport sedan. If the Ghibli succeeds, Maserati will welcome tens of thousands of new customers and, most importantly, celebrate a rekindled relationship with demanding North American buyers. If the Ghibli fails - well, the truth is, nobody has written an option for failure.

Ken Block's Gymkhana 8 to feature Dubai Police cars?

Tue, Feb 23 2016

Yesterday we showed you the shiny Ford Fiesta that Ken Block will slide, spin, and hoon through the next Gymkhana video. In case the image above isn't clear, that video will drop at midnight EST on February 30th on the Ford Performance YouTube channel. We don't know all the entire premise of the video yet, but this Tweet from the man himself reveals that the video will be set in Dubai. Block is standing on the Fiesta we saw yesterday, and arrayed behind him are a handful of those famous Dubai Police cars you're probably familiar with. The force has a fleet of sportscars and supercars, and the purpose is outreach and goodwill among its citizenry, not necessarily the pursuit of criminals. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. From left to right, we can see a Maserati GranTurismo, Porsche 911, what looks to be a Nissan GT-R obscured by Block's Fiesta, a McLaren (likely a 650S), Ford Mustang, and a Ferrari 599 of some ilk. Will they take part? Maybe Block will try and run from what might be the most horsepower-intensive police fleet in the world. We'll have answers (and a few minutes of pure Block hooniganism) in a few days. Related Video:

Latin music star Ren? P?rez destroys own Maserati to send kids a message

Thu, 06 Mar 2014

Can destroying a car be art? That question comes a bit too late for the Maserati Quattroporte seen above. The act depicted is from the music video for Adentro by Puerto Rican hip-hop act Calle 13 new single.
While the video is not yet online, the making-of featurette is available below and shows the luxury sedan getting beat with a baseball bat (and more) by the group's frontman René Pérez. According to Latin Gossip, Pérez wants to send his fans a message not to place too high a value in material objects. The Maserati represents a time in his life of too much excess, it seems...
The guy might have an argument, but it still seems pretty wasteful to destroy a perfectly good Italian sports sedan. We will be curious to see how far the destruction goes, but you can get a peak at it in the video below.
