 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!

Mitsubishi and Renault-Nissan expand partnership, US will get new sedan

Tue, 05 Nov 2013

Mitsubishi and Renault-Nissan have just inked an alliance that might, hopefully, reverse the ailing fortunes of the Mitsubishi brand in the US market. The big chunk of news is that Mitsubishi will produce two Renualt-based models for sale in the US market, and that they'll be built at the Renault-Samsung factory in Busan, South Korea.
The plans call for a D-segment sedan to be followed by a C-segment offering. Based on the cars built at the Busan factory, that means Mitsubishi will be getting the SM5 and the SM3, a pair of handsome sedans that are based on Renault-Nissan's D and C platforms, respectively. These same platforms underpin a number of US market Nissans (not to mention a number of cars from Renault), namely the Pathfinder, Maxima, Quest and Murano for the D platform and the last-generation Rogue and Sentra for the C platform.
Besides the sedan production, Nissan and Mitsubishi will be expanding their joint-venture company, NMKV, which produces Kei cars for the Japanese market. A new, all-electric offering will be born from the partnership, likely based on a Kei car platform. The partnership between the three brands will also lead to increased sharing of technology, particularly relating to electric cars.

California adapts ZEV mandate with PHEVs for smaller automakers

Fri, Jun 5 2015

California is the nation's largest market for zero-emissions vehicles with over 100,000 of them estimated to be on the roads there. The state's goal is to keep that number growing every year. To that end, the California Air Resources Board is now tweaking its rules in a way that might not boost ZEVs but could mean more plug-in hybrids for the Golden State. Jaguar Land Rover, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Subaru, and Volvo asked for an exemption to the state's zero-emissions vehicle mandate last year due to their relatively small development budgets compared to larger automakers. CARB denied their request but did craft a compromise, according to Automotive News. Rather than being required to offer a ZEV in the state, companies with an annual global revenue of less than $40 billion, like those in this group, may instead sell plug-in hybrids to earn ZEV credits. The companies aren't completely off the hook, though. If these plug-in hybrids don't earn enough credits, the corporations must buy them on the market to make up the difference. Automakers with popular electric models like Nissan and Tesla have made a big business through this trading system by selling their surplus to rivals. Tesla alone pocketed $51 million in the first quarter from this part of its business, according to Automotive News. The changes to the regulations also aren't set in stone, yet. CARB is meeting in 2016 and could adjust things further at that time.

Carlos Ghosn sues Nissan-Mitsubishi in the Netherlands

Sat, Jul 20 2019

AMSTERDAM — Carlos Ghosn has launched a court case in the Netherlands against Japanese carmakers Nissan Motor and Mitsubishi Motors, who ousted him as chairman of their alliance last year on charges of embezzlement, Dutch newspaper NRC reported on Saturday. Ghosn is seeking 15 million euros ($16.8 million) in damages from the carmakers, as grave mistakes were made when he was sacked, NRC reported, citing his lawyer. "In the Netherlands, if you want to fire an executive you have to first tell him what he's being accused of, and you have to provide him with the evidence for the accusations. Neither of those things has happened," lawyer Laurens de Graaf told NRC. Ghosn fell from grace late last year when he was arrested in Japan and sacked by Nissan on charges of financial misconduct, which he denies. He has also been fired as the CEO and chairman of French carmaker Renault. Ghosn was freed in April from jail in Japan on a $4.5 million bail. Among other charges of fraud and misconduct, Nissan and Mitsubishi have said Ghosn improperly received $9 million in compensation from their joint venture. Suspect expenses Ghosn made when he chaired Renault and Nissan amounted to about 11 million euros, Renault's board said in June. Ghosn holds French, Lebanese and Brazilian citizenship, but opted for the fiscally more friendly Netherlands as his tax domicile in 2012. The holding company for the Nissan-Mitsubishi alliance is also incorporated in the Netherlands. The district court in Amsterdam is reviewing the case but has not set a trial date yet, NRC said.
