Up for sale here is a project I tried to take on for my son. I got this 3000GT Not running, Upon investigating, I found the previous owner had the timing belt replaced during a service and the mechanic didn't tighten the crank bolt enough and it fell out, this allowed the pulley to drift out a hair and the relucter ring hit the crank sensor and died. After I replaced the sensor and put a new bolt in the crank pulley. the car fired right up but seem to have a miss. I found the 3/6 coil pack was not firing. I drove the care up and down the road and just wanted to confirm that the car was drivable. And it drove great with exception of the miss. I happened to have a Stealth at the same time and swapped all the coils, ignition modules, wires, and the Stealth continued to run fine, so that told me all the parts were good. With the help of a friend who works at Mitsubishi, he believes there might be an open circuit between the ECM and the Ignition module causing 3/6 to not work. NO RESERVE Auction, I have set the price starting at what I was quoted from the scrap yard. I know I could probably fix it if I spent enough time on it but I don't have a lot of time. So I am content just letting it go to someone who has the time to play with it. Now the kid I got the car from, his parents own a buy here pay here car lot and they got this car and sent it into the shop and went over this thing with shocks and brakes and even put ground effects kit on it with big wheel and tires (which I put on the Stealth) It also has a hood bra and car looked sharp. But as it has sat in my driveway over the last couple years, everything they added and then painted to match the car is now loosing it clear coat. It looks like you could just sand the clear down and hit it again and get it back to decent driver status, Now the rear fiberglass bumper was damaged at the Auction when the kids parents decided to just sell it off at auction and had to be pushed through the line, but the fiberglass doesn't offer a lot of strength for pushing, So the rear bumper needs some fixin. So just to recap. Car could use some freshening up on the paint side and clear coat flaking off on a lot of the added ground effects. Engine is partially disassembled to replace crank sensor and just needs timing cover put back on and button up. I bought new plugs and gaskets to change them but want to wait till the 3/6 coil issue was resolved . the interior is still in decent shape and has two tone black and tan, console lid has a cracked area and a couple minor spots on the bottom of the door panel by the speaker. But overall still very nice. Car also has a 10 disc Sony CD changer mounted behind the back seat. but the cars radion was swapped out for the Radio in the Stealth. so the factory cassette deck is just sitting in the dash and not hooked up,
PLEASE NOTE, the car has not been started in over a year, battery is stone dead and will like need replacing. First two things that will likely need done if your plan is to get this car back on the road is New Battery, change the Spark Plugs and then fix the 3/6 coil issue. I know this car has not been driven daily in almost 3 years but it has always been park on blacktop and not in some tall grass off to the side (that's why the wife wants it gone, she sees it every morning when she walks out the door)
I will try to take some additional photos of the clearcoat issue, it was getting late and I was loosing sunlight so its hard to see. but you can see how straight and rust free it is.
So here you go, NO RESERVE, ANY BID is a winner!!! Feel free to call me to discuss anything you want to know.
Happy Bidding!! Chuck 215-692-9536

Mitsubishi HQ raided by the Japanese government
Fri, Sep 2 2016Mitsubishi's fuel economy scandal continues to grow, and the Japanese government wants answers. According to Reuters, the Japanese Transport Ministry raided the company's headquarters and a factory in Nagoya today. This raid comes soon after the company revealed that a number of its SUVs were also being sold with incorrect fuel economy ratings. The Japanese government issued a stop-sale on those vehicles a few days ago. This raid also follows an internal investigation conducted by Mitsubishi to discover how this fuel economy scandal happened, and how the practices that led to it were able to continue for 25 years. The internal investigation revealed a few contributing factors that all fell under issues with the company's culture. There was significant pressure throughout the company to reach fuel economy targets and missing them wasn't readily accepted. Questioning decisions of management was also discouraged, and it seemed the different divisions of the company weren't working well together. The findings of this raid have yet to be revealed, but it will be interesting to see how they compare with those of the internal investigation. The Japanese Transport Ministry seems intent on preventing a repeat of this with another company considering that, according to Reuters, it "sent documents to other automakers to enforce compliance with rules for calculating mileage ."

2023 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross gets standard all-wheel drive
Wed, Apr 6 2022Following a significant refresh for the 2022 model year, the 2023 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross subcompact crossover is mostly the same. Except now it's only available with all-wheel drive. All of the front-drive variants have been dropped. A side effect of this decision is that the Eclipse Cross now has a significantly higher base price. Last year's ES with front-drive started at $25,180 including destination. The new all-wheel-drive ES starts at $27,235. But compared with the old all-wheel-drive ES, the new one is just $455 more. Pricing for the whole lineup is below. ES: $27,235 LE: $28,685 SE: $29,685 SEL: $30,935 For that extra $455, the ES now includes LED headlights and fog lights. The LE trims and above also get new available 18-inch alloy wheel designs. The SE gets a silver front bumper trim piece, and the SEL's lower side trim is body color.

Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV US launch delayed over battery shortage
Mon, 30 Dec 2013Mitsubishi resumed full-scale battery production in August after a five-month shutdown due to a safety investigation. Supplier Lithium Energy Japan has been delivering 4,000 battery packs each month since September, but that's apparently still not enough to fill the overseas inventory pipeline for the Outlander PHEV and i subcompact EV while launching the Outlander PHEV here in the US. So instead of the previous tentative launch date of Fall 2014, the plug-in hybrid's Stateside on-sale date has been pushed back until 2015.
That's according to Automotive News, which also notes that Mitsubishi has sold 11,300 plug-in Outlanders this year, though that number reflects the production stoppage over the battery issues. As of April, battery supplier LEJ will be able to supply 5,000 packs per month just for the Outlander, but company president Osamu Masuko has gone on record saying that production will have to rise above that in order to make the US launch.
Every Mitsubishi dealer (and hopefully a fair number of consumers) will be looking forward to a crossover that, for the moment, doesn't really have natural rivals. The Outlander PHEV can drive 32 miles on electricity alone, has a top speed of 75 miles per hour in EV mode and offers all-wheel drive with a towing capacity of over 3,000 pounds. The model should get an impressive MPGe rating from the EPA when it finally arrives and it figures to be a bellwether for the plug-in Outlander Sport and Pajero utility vehicles that are expected to arrive after it. Hopefully 2015 will be its year.
