kind of a sad day here, but time to sell our 1999 vr-4
asking 14.5k OBO
Selling since we have a new baby on the way and need to free up funds..


VIN: ja3an74k3xy000384
Clean and Clear Title in hand. just over 113k miles
Have all service records as well as the Original Window Sticker.
All original stock manuals, booklets, and paperwork, including the radio reset code 
all the windows event still have the original security etching, etc. basically she's a garage queen. 
completely stock except for a K&N air filter. 
Also can include extra set of stock chromies (rims) if wanted

Heater works perfectly and AC blows cold. 10 disk changer in the trunk, and a single disc and cassette in the front.
Transmission shifts smoothy without any grinding, clutch grabs like when she was new, the turbo's spool up beautifully
4wheel steering works great, and no leaks on its lines.
new transfer case from the dealership back in 2010
new turbo oil return lines a few years prior to that done at the dealership.
other than that, no major work, expecting belt change due at about 120k miles.
full synth oil changed regularly every 3 months (since its not driven daily) 

only non-mint issues are a few minor dings on the drivers side rear quarter and some paint chips on the front bumper due to highway driving. other than that, its pristine. paint is all original
interior is original tan leather, original floor mats in there, driver's seat has a small minor tear about the length of a pinkie finger on the left bolster 

again, asking 14.5k OBO.. its a pristine car for its age and would be great for any collector.
Please email if you are interested or if you have any questions or would like more pics.
thanks

Mitsubishi denies plans for Toyota/Subaru rival sports coupe

Tue, 23 Oct 2012

Forgive us for being wistful, but there was a time when Mitsubishi coupes and sports cars were the downright awesome. The 1990s brought us the all-wheel drive, turbocharged Eclipse GSX and the twin-turbocharged 3000GT VR-4 (seen here). The times, they were good.
Fast-forward to today, and the Lancer Evolution exists as Mitsubishi's sole, true performance offering. Mitsubishi killed off the Eclipse last year, by which time it had lost much the luster of its predecessors. With an affordable Japanese sports car fomenting underway thanks to Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ, one may think that it's an ideal time for a brand like Mitsubishi to jump back into the performance coupe game. A rear-drive Mitsubishi sports car to take on the Toyobaru twins could be just what the brand needs to gain some mindshare among consumers.
Not so, says Osamu Masuko. The president and executive director of Mitsubishi told reporters at the Sydney Motor Show, "Our engineers are very prominent to investigate new technologies, but to use that technology they are not that good to bring the revenue to make that money." Read: the engineers want to do it, but the company does not find it to be financially responsible.

Greg Tracy's MiEV Evolution III topped the time sheets almost 14 seconds ahead of third-place Monster Tajima.
On Thursday, qualifying times for six categories were set on the bottom-section switchbacks of Pikes Peak: Electric Modified - near-unlimited showcases of electric-vehicle engineering; Electric Production - electric vehicles "readily available to the public;" Open Wheel - single engine, open wheeled, open cockpit, single seat vehicles; Open - based upon a production or approved-aftermarket-replica vehicle; Exhibition - a prototype or pre-production vehicle limited to one year of eligibility in this class; and Vintage - vehicles and drivelines from 1990 or earlier.
