Interior Mods:

Jensen Flip Up Screen Cd/DVD Player (Unsure of model, was in the car when I bought it)
May have aftermarket speakers from previous owner, since they sounded good enough for me to never feel like upgrading them.
2xJL 10's In a ported box, and a JL Amp (I'll have to check and see which models they were.)

Extras if wanted:

Aftermarket JDM Style Unpainted Rear bumper (Not sure of the brand, the guy I bought my other Evo from gave it to me because he didn't want it anymore)
Stock Exhaust
Stock Intercooler
Stock Springs (suspension)
Possibly Stock Intercooler Piping and intake if I still have it in the attic.


Condition

Small crack in front middle of bumper from a friend bumping into a parking space. Black stock lip is on the car from my other Evo. Normal Wear on steering wheel, Small Stain on driver seat and scuff on driver side of rear bumper (unknown origin of stain and scuff, was there when I purchased the vehicle). Stock wing was painted apex silver due to the carbon fiber being sun damaged when I purchased the vehicle. Left over paint from the wing was used to touch up the scuff on the rear bumper. The trunk carpet is in place, but the sub box was not bolted down and has slid around a bit and messed it up a little. I can take pictures if requested. Hopefully my honesty on the car doesn't hurt the sale, but I drove 4 hours to Houston, TX to pick up my Black Evo, and the seller was more or less honest about the car and has been helpful post sell with any questions I had about the mods he had made to it. I am more than happy to keep in touch with the buyer and answer any future questions they may have, but the mods are pretty straight forward.

Overall Interior/Exterior 9/10  - several small barely noticeable scratches/blemishes that I can notice, but no one else ever does unless I point them out. Most people don't even notice the small crack on front bumper or scuff on rear unless I point it out to them. Car has been garage kept since I purchased it with the exception of the last couple of weeks since my new Evo is in its place in the garage now.

I've always used mobil 1 extended performance oil and filter (The 15,000 mile oil) and changed it every 3-5k miles. I might be able to find receipts for some of the parts, I know I saw the one for the clutch/flywheel when I was cleaning it out.

Car is stock motor/stock turbo and was bone stock when I bought it. Car is unmolested. Carfax listed me as the 5th owner, but from what I can tell from it I am the 2nd non dealership owner. The car had 55k miles on it when I purchased it. Clean Carfax Report is available if requested.


Reason for Selling:

I bought a 2003 Tarmac Black one recently since I've always wanted a black one. The car I'm selling has never broken down or left me stranded in the 3-4 years and 40k miles I've had it, so it was no issue buying one a year older for me.

Call or text 225-seven seven 3-four424 if you call and I don't answer leave a voicemail. I work in plants and can't always have my phone on me, so texting is probably the best bet for initial contact.

The car is listed locally, and a few more miles will be put on it due to test rides for potential buyers, but that is all I have been driving it since I purchased the new one. 

SHIPPING/DELIVERY:   LOCAL PICKUP ONLY

PAYMENT: CASH OR CASHIER'S CHECK

IF REQUESTED, I AM WILLING TO MEET UP WITH A NEARBY MECHANIC SHOP OF YOUR CHOICE TO HAVE THEM LOOK OVER THE VEHICLE (AT BUYER'S EXPENSE IF THERE IS A FEE) IF YOU ARE FROM OUT OF STATE AND WOULD BE TRAVELING HERE TO PURCHASE THE VEHICLE.

If more pictures or additional information is needed, I will accommodate this to the best of my ability. (Pictures of specific areas in question) I travel with work, so may or may not be near the car in the event a request is made for pictures, but I should be able to get a coworker or my girlfriend to snap some shots if I am away and it is needed.

Thanks for looking.

Mitsubishi Evolution nameplate evolves into an electric SUV

Wed, Sep 20 2017

Let's imagine a Mitsubishi enthusiast awakens after having slept a decade. At first he isn't alarmed at all, since the Lancer he last saw before taking a long nap still looks the same. The Galant is long gone, but that doesn't bother him much. The first shock he experiences is when he realizes the Eclipse name has been reserved for a 2018 crossover — so would it be best not to tell him the vaunted Evolution nameplate will be used in an electric SUV? That's the plan according to Mitsubishi, as the carmaker announced it will show its e-Evolution Concept at the 45 th Tokyo Motor Show next month. Mitsubishi speaks of a watershed moment taking place at the show, as it "will wave the flag under new circumstances to usher a new era of longterm growth and sustainable development, returning to where it belongs to better embrace the future." In short, electric SUVs. According to Mitsubishi, the e-Evolution is a preview for a "low-slung aerodynamic SUV Coupe," and it will be a high-performance, all-wheel-drive vehicle with electric power. Of course, the very name Evolution stands for continuously evolving vehicles, so a change of approach from turbocharging winged Lancers isn't that ill-advised. The included photo was distributed under the file name "1st Teaser," so perhaps we will see more photos as the showtime gets nearer. Related Video:

Recharge Wrap-up: Toyota FCV ready for production, Nissan tests Leaf-to-Home energy management

Fri, Oct 17 2014

Toyota will begin selling its hydrogen fuel cell vehicle (FCV) in Japan in December. The US and Europe can expect to see the car become available next summer. The FCV, which will likely be called "Mirai" (meaning "future") in Japan, is ready for production ahead of its initial deadline at the end of the fiscal year in March. Toyota planned for annual production of 700 units, but might increase output to meet higher-than-expected demand, which is currently nearing 1,000 units. The cars will mostly be sold in the four cities where a hydrogen fueling infrastructure is already being put in place: Tokyo, Nagoya, Osaka and Fukuoka. Read more at Nikkei Asian Review. Nissan is testing the Leaf EV as part of an energy management system including "Leaf to Home" technology. The system allows the Leaf to help support the power grid during peak energy usage, or provide backup power to a home or building during outages, particularly in emergencies like natural disasters. Using the Leaf's battery to provide electricity during peak hours would lessen the demand on the grid and make the system work more efficiently. Furthermore, if consumers are compensated for the energy saved by using the Leaf for power during periods of high demand, it could encourage more people to adopt the EV.

CDP keeps track of how much companies are disclosing about their impact on global climate change. "The need for data on corporate climate change impacts and strategies to reduce them has never been greater," says CDP CEO Paul Simpson. "For this reason we congratulate those businesses that have achieved a position on CDP's Climate Disclosure Leadership Index." Other perfect scores were earned by Nissan, BMW, Daimler and General Motors. Read more in the press release from Honda below. Scientists at Stanford University have developed a lithium ion battery that can warn users before it overheats. A thin layer of copper between the anode and the layer separating the anode from the cathode acts as a sensor. When it detects lithium buildups from overcharging are approaching the separator, it sends an early alert long before it gets to a point where it would cause a short (which could lead to a fire). The new safety measure could be used in all sorts of battery applications, and not be limited to EVs. Learn more at Phys.org.

Watch Mitsubishi break the EV record at Pikes Peak

Wed, 09 Jul 2014

Take a listen folks - you're hearing the eventual future of motorsports. This is Greg Tracy and the Mitsubishi MiEV Evolution III as they assault the treacherous course at Pikes Peak in just 9:08.188.
This run is significant for a number of reasons. As we recapped in our Pikes Peak finale post, Tracy's run was a mere two seconds off the best overall time at this year's event, snagging him and Mitsubishi second place overall, as well as first in the Electric Modified class and the fourth fastest time ever recorded. Perhaps more importantly, though, Tracy thoroughly trounced the previous EV record at Pikes Peak, beating the legendary Nobuhiro "Monster" Tajima's 2013 best of 9:46.530.
It's an impressive feat, and now you can experience the whole run from as near a first-person viewpoint as you're going to get. Scroll down and have a look.
