 2001 MITSUBISHI GALANT GTZ

The GTZ was basically a fully loaded, no-option car that had certain exclusive features, such as the spoiler, side cladding, and suspension. A nice GTZ is hard to find.

A two-owner car. I have owned this since April of 2002.

It has 156,150 miles. The motor runs very well and uses no oil.

At 144,627 miles the transmission was rebuilt at a cost of $2000+.

Timing belt was replaced at 115,000 miles.

Radiator and both hoses were replaced at 118,000 miles.

Mitsubishi Eclipse GT 18" wheels with Toyo Proxes 225/40ZR18 tires. The tires are pretty well worn out.

Eibach Pro-Kit lowering springs

Aftermarket halo headlights and alteeza taillights

Custom grille. I fabricated this myself and installed it when the headlights and taillights were put in.

Body and paint are very nice with just a couple of scratches and nicks. See photos. The paint is going bad on top of the rear-view mirrors, but is very nice everywhere else. Gas filler door is messed up and will not close properly. Again, see pictures.

Interior is very nice for age and mileage. Gray leather with factory floor mats. Headliner starting to come loose slightly at rear only. Dash has a crack. Clean trunk area

Everything works, engine runs very well, oil and filter always changed at 3000-4000 miles. Premium oil and filters always used. Clean engine compartment.

Transmission works properly. Rebuilt by a shop very familiar with Mitsubishi transmissions, so it was done right. I have the receipt for this.

There is a slight, intermittent vibration that occurs when under a load, that has been tentatively traced to a bad engine or transmission mount. This is not an engine or transmission vibration, nor is it tire or wheel related. The front rotors are just starting to cause slight steering wheel vibration when the brakes are applied. Easily corrected with new rotors or turning the ones on there now.

I strongly recommend you come and look at this car in person before you bid. This is one of the nicer Galant GTZs left. The high bidder will be responsible for paying for the car. There is no reserve. Please do not bid on the car first, then come look at it and decide you don't want it. This is not how it works.

See my feedback and bid with confidence. Car is sold as-is, where-is, with no warranty implied or stated. I am an individual, not a dealer.

Thanks for looking and good luck!

Japanese automakers kick in $800k for new charging-station company

Mon, Jun 2 2014

Cynics may say that gathering $800,000 (total) from four of Japan's largest automakers is merely a rounding error. Still, Toyota, Nissan, Honda and Mitsubishi, along with the Development Bank of Japan, are putting those funds to good use. So, that's something. Last week, those five entities officially founded Nippon Charge Service LLC. The company was established to promote plug-in vehicle charging installations across Japan and the automakers seeded it with 80 million yen, or about $786,000 US. Those funds will be used to help business owners deploy charging stations at convenience stores, highway-side locales and other locations that will make it easier for plug-in vehicle drivers (of Toyotas, Hondas, Mitsubishis and Nissans, obviously) to get their juice. The automakers first announced they'd collaborate last year, when they said they'd work with the Japanese government to more than triple the country's publicly accessible chargers to about 17,000 units. No targets were disclosed as far as how many charging stations would be deployed this time out, but, in a move similar to the EZ Charge system in the US, Nippon Charge Service will also have universally-accepted charging cards available by the end of the year to drivers all of those brands' plug-in vehicles to make the charging process a little more seamless. Check out Honda's press release below. Japan Automakers Advance Electric Charging Infrastructure with New Company, Nippon Charge Service -Established to help build charging infrastructure for electric-powered vehicles (PHVs, PHEVs and EVs)- Toyota Motor Corporation Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. Honda Motor Co., Ltd. Mitsubishi Motors Corporation Development Bank of Japan Inc. TOKYO, Japan, May 30, 2014 - Toyota Motor Corporation, Nissan Motor Co., Ltd., Honda Motor Co., Ltd., and Mitsubishi Motors Corporation jointly established a new company, Nippon Charge Service, LLC, on May 26 to promote the installation of chargers for electric-powered vehicles (PHVs, PHEVs, EVs). The goal is to help build a charging network that offers more convenience to drivers in Japan. The new company will promote the installation of chargers, for the good of society and to expand the use of electric-powered vehicles. Related industries are also expected to benefit.

Mitsubishi recalls 82,426 vehicles for CVT hesitation issues

Mon, Aug 22 2016

The Basics: Mitsubishi is recalling 82,436 vehicles from the 2015 and 2016 model year. The recall affects the continuously variable transmissions, or CVTs, in 2015-16 Outlander Sports, 2016 Outlanders, and 2016 Lancers. Mitsubishi calls their Jatco manufactured CVT a constant velocity transmission. The Problem: According to the document Mitsubishi submitted to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the CVTs in certain vehicles can momentarily lose signal and delay acceleration. This can increase the risk of an accident. Injuries/Deaths: It is unknown if there are any injuries or deaths related to this issue. The Fix: Dealerships will reprogram affected CVTs for free. If you own one: Mitsubishi Motors North America began the recall on August 15. If you own an affected vehicle, contact MMNA customer service at 1-888-648-7820. MMNA's number for this recall is SR-16-006. Mitsubishi dealers should be able to update the CVT's software and resolve the issue.

Carlos Ghosn's lawyers in Japan quit after client's flight to Lebanon

Thu, Jan 16 2020

TOKYO — Japanese attorneys representing Carlos Ghosn, including lead lawyer Junichiro Hironaka, quit on Thursday following the former Nissan chiefÂ’s flight to Lebanon from Japan, where he had been fighting financial misconduct charges. Hironaka had been representing Ghosn in his defense against financial misconduct charges. His move, announced Thursday, was widely expected after Ghosn escaped to Lebanon late last month. A second lawyer in GhosnÂ’s three-person legal team, Takashi Takano, also quit on Thursday, according to an official at his office. A person who answered the telephone at the office of the third lawyer, Hiroshi Kawatsu, said she did not know if he still represented the former automotive executive. Hironaka said in a statement that the entire team working on the case at his office will quit but did not outline reasons. He has said before he felt some empathy for Ghosn's reasons for escape, while stressing he had hoped to win vindication in court. Hironaka is respected for winning high-profile cases in this nation where the conviction rate is higher than 99%. Among the cases he has handled is that of Atsuko Muraki, a Welfare Ministry official accused of falsely approving a group to qualify for mail discounts. She was acquitted in 2010. Also Thursday, Nissan released steps it was taking to prevent a recurrence of Ghosn's scandal, and reiterated its denouncement of Ghosn. The automaker said in a report submitted to the Tokyo Stock Exchange that Ghosn had the authority to “single-handedly” determine directors' compensation and such information was not shared with other departments at the company. The underreporting of his future compensation is among the allegations Ghosn faced in Tokyo. In a news conference last week in Beirut, Ghosn insisted again that he was innocent of the charges, which also included breach of trust in diverting Nissan money for his personal gain. He said he fled because he felt he could not expect a fair trial in Japan. Ghosn's flight while he was out on bail awaiting trial means his case will not go on in Japan. Interpol has issued a wanted notice but his extradition from Lebanon is unlikely. Ghosn has accused Nissan and Japanese officials of conspiring to bring him down to block a fuller integration of Nissan with its French alliance partner Renault SA of France. Ghosn, who has signed on an international team of lawyers, has expressed willingness to stand trial in Lebanon.
