I have a 1998 Mitsubishi 3000gt VR-4 Twin Turbo All Wheel Drive for sale. This car was checked over by Ace Automotive Empire in St. Joseph Missouri and everything that wasn't up to par was fixed. They installed a brand new clutch and a brand new turbo on the car just last week($2700).

The 3.0 Twin Turbocharged engine runs excellent and exactly how it should. No spits or sputters or funny noises. 
Full 120k service done at 121k miles includes- Water Pump, oil pump, timing belt, NGK sparks Plugs and Bosch wires. Valve stem seals were replaced. Heads were hot tanked and decked and a valve job was done as well. 
60k service includes- transmission replaced and transfer case serviced
HKS mushroom foam intake 
HKS turbo timer
Aluminum Flywheel(Fidanza i think)
This was all done 6k miles ago which is why this car runs so flawlessly :)

It has the very much sought after 6 speed manual transmission. This transmission shifts really good and smooth. The only complaint i have is when you shift to 2nd gear and the rpms are up higher, it has a slight grind. The syncronizer would have to be replaced to make it perfect. It's about a $200 repair if you drop the tranny off at a shop that will replace it. I can drive it without grinding it 100% of the time so i saw no need to fix it.

The interior is tan and black. In my opinion, this is the best color combination they made...Pearl White Paint with tan and black interior. The leather seats are in good shape with no rips, tears, or burns along with the rest of the interior. The drivers seat bolster has a little wear but is not torn or anything like that. I just wanted to note that it doesn't look new. 
This newer bodystyle is also the most sought after 3000gt ever made. It combines the best of sport and class all in one. The exterior of the body is also in very good shape for a car this age. Please refer to the pictures. There are no dents at all that i can see. There may be a few blemishes in the paint in the form of small rock chip etc but nothing really noticeable.

It has an aftermarket cd player and Pioneer speakers all around professionally installed that looks and works really nice.

The factory chrome wheels wrapped in Toyo Proxes Performace tires all around (appx 7k miles on them) shine really nice and definitely set off the pearl white exterior. 

The windows are tinted 20% and look really nice as well. 
Sylvania Silverstar Ultra High and Low Beam Bulbs
EVO IX Metal Bypass Valve
ProSport Premium Peak/Warn white/ amber gauges in stock center dash locations (water temp, oil pressure, boost pressure from left to right). The gauges have been excellent and i have had no issues with them. They are connected to accessory lights and change color when you turn on the headlights

Replaced Battery Cable Ends
Replaced with Centric brake pads and rotors al around
Replaced motorized antenna witha 14" shorty-great reception
Replaced shifter bushings with solid bushings

Power Locks work perfectly
Power windows word perfectly

The suspension is tight all the way around. This is the best handling car i've ever driven in my life. 

If you're looking for a really rare car that will be worth more and more money the longer you have it, this is the car for you. These cars have become very scarce over the last few years and are becoming harder to find by the day. Of course you can find raced out and torn up 3000gts and stealths but if you're looking for an unmolested 3000gt that has been maintained with high quality replacement parts and modded conservatively while maintaining the original look, this is the car for you. If you're looking for value in a car for the money, this is the car for you.
Clean and clear title in hand. Please call if you have any questions or would like to come look at the car in person. It's located in st. joseph MO 64503.

Mitsubishi Fuso targets female truckers with pink polka dot Canter

Fri, 22 Nov 2013

We take it for granted that women can enter just about any career they want now. But there are still countless occupations where females are underrepresented. You don't see too many women truckers, for example - particularly in a country that's still as deeply traditional as Japan. But Mitsubishi Fuso is showing just how forward thinking - and simultaneously, how traditional (pink polka dots are a bit 'on the nose') it can be with this hybrid pink truck.
Now for those unfamiliar, the Mitsubishi Fuso Truck and Bus Corporation has nothing to do with Mitsubishi the car company these days. Instead, it's owned by Daimler, which we know best as the parent company of Mercedes-Benz. Yet Daimler also owns a number of truck and bus manufacturers - among them Freightliner, Thomas Built and Mitsubishi Fuso. One of latter's most popular products is the Canter, the model seen here coated in the shade of Pepto pink at the Tokyo Motor Show.
The point? To make truck driving more attractive to women, of course! We're not sure it'll catch on, but apart from the color scheme - which extends, incidentally, from the cab to the box and inside the cabin - this particular Canter (which Fuso has dubbed Canna) features a hybrid powertrain that produces 130 horsepower and 221 pound-feet of torque, paired to a 7.5Ah lithium-ion battery good for 270 volts. The whole package weighs 6,250 pounds and can carry three Japanese school girls dressed up as Sailor Moon in the front and plenty of Hello Kitty merchandise in the back.

NuTonomy shows that people quickly relax in autonomous cars

Thu, Oct 6 2016

For six weeks, nuTonomy has had a fleet of self-driving taxis on the streets of Singapore, and it seems the experiment is already yielding useful information based on rider surveys. CEO Dr. Karl Iagnemma revealed at UPSHIFT 2016 that despite most first-time riders initially being nervous about stepping into a self-driving vehicle, the anxiety quickly fades. In fact, after a minute or two in the car, riders will relax into near boredom. Customers who ride along in either a fully autonomous Renault Zoe or a Mitsuibshi i-MiEV have been providing valuable feedback to engineers pre- and post-ride. The research and data obtained from their self-driving taxi service and the riders who use it is already being integrated into their future, Level 4 autonomous products. The Cambridge, MA, based company has also found that riders are attributing human-like characteristics to the vehicles. It seems that riders prefer when the machines don't behave like machines but more like people. NuTonomoy is tailoring their future vehicles to be less trolly-like. Iagnemma revealed that the company is in talks with other global cities to bring their autonomous products to the roads.

Mitsubishi recalls Mirage in snowy states for airbag delay

Sun, Dec 20 2015

The Basics: Mitsubishi is recalling 25,185 examples of the 2014-2015 Mirage, built between August 7, 2013, and September 2, 2015, sold or ever registered in states that use salt to melt ice on the road during the winter months. Those include Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and the District of Columbia. The Problem: Snow with road salt tracked in on boots could cause a wiring connector to short out behind a kick panel next to the driver's footrest, potentially delaying the deployment of the front airbags. Injuries/Deaths: None reported. The fix: Mitsubishi dealers are being instructed to inspect the electrical connectors, replace any corroded ones, and fit a waterproof sheet to prevent any further corrosion. No timeframe has been set as of yet. If you own one: Try not to track in too much snow. Watch out for the SRS warning light on the dashboard, which will alert you if there's a problem with the airbags. Expect to hear from Mitsubishi Motors North America in due course to arrange for your vehicle to be checked out at a local dealer. Related Video: RECALL Subject : Air Bag Deployment may be Delayed due to Corrosion Report Receipt Date: DEC 04, 2015 NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V815000 Component(s): AIR BAGS , ELECTRICAL SYSTEM All Products Associated with this Recall Manufacturer: Mitsubishi Motors North America, Inc. SUMMARY: Mitsubishi Motors North America, Inc. (MMNA) is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 Mitsubishi Mirage vehicles manufactured August 7, 2013, to September 2, 2015 and originally sold in, or ever registered in, Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and District of Columbia. If the driver enters an affected vehicle with their boots covered with snow mixed with road salt, the melting snow may soak through the carpet and cause corrosion to a wiring connector located in a junction box behind a kick panel to the left of the driver's footrest. CONSEQUENCE: In the event of a crash, corrosion of the connector could delay deployment of the frontal air bags, increasing the risk of injury to the driver and the front seat passenger.
