Hi, for sale is easily the best car I have ever owned.  It is a 2008 Evo X with 61,000 miles on it.  This car has been extremely well cared for with fluids changed and maintenance done regularly, parked in a finished garage, and never beat on, drag raced, or majorly modified in anyway.  The Evo is I believe the perfect combination of car traits, it's fast, handles amazing, and is responsive in everyway meanwhile it gets 25+ mpg on the highway, has room for 4+, and is comfortable enough for trips and everyday life.  I have falken eurowinter tires on it and have never felt safer driving a car in the snow.  The engine and drivetrain are smooth and operate like new.

Some features and minor mods include:
-apexi rs evo catback exhaust
-tein lowering springs
-carbon fiber SSS style rear wing
-aluminum parking brake/razo weighted shift knob
-factory aux audio ports
-Ralliart black tail-lights
-a new ACD pump
-aluminum underbody tray (I also have stock plastic one)
-intake

Imperfections include (I'm very picky and believe in being as up front and honest as possible):
-car was in a less than 5 mph fender bender and instead of fixing the old bumper I fought to have Mitsubishi install an OEM new one without license plate wholes at the dealership (front end looks perfectly brand new and clean)
-could use new brake pads in the future
-small scratch on passenger rear quarter panel
-carbon fiber spoiler has small chip in resin
-hood scoop paint is peeling slightly

Overall as the pictures can clearly show, this car is in great shape and whoever buys it will be more than happy with a reliable world beating sports car with looks that match it's performance.  I am the second owner and it was originally a California car.  The underbody looks very clean with no rust whatsoever.  It has a clear title with no liens.

Autocheck reports frame damage.  This is false, car has only been in the accident listed above and that was nothing more than a fender bender.  Auction house made error.

Thank you.

Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV van variant coming to Europe

Thu, Aug 28 2014

Mitsubishi's Outlander Plug-in Hybrid SUV will be hitting our shores this fall. Across the Pond, however, it's heading into more no-nonsense territory. That's because the Japanese automaker is making a commercial van variant of the plug-in hybrid for the UK. Mitsubishi will start selling a model called the Outlander PHEV GX3h 4Work in the UK, Motoring Research says. Like the SUV, the model will pair a 2.0-liter gas engine with an electric motor and will have an all-electric range of 32 miles. The difference is that the back seats will be taken out and the glass will be blacked out. Hardcore, we say. The model will be priced at 36,905 British pounds (about $61,000), though buyers are eligible for a government grant worth 7,381 pounds ($12,200). Mitsubishi plans to start selling the Outlander PHEV stateside in Fall 2015. The company said earlier this summer that the US version will be substantially different from the current version, with updates for everything from exterior and interior styling to powertrain efficiency improvements. The model had some battery-melting issues last year in Japan, though Mitsubishi ramped up its production once those problems were solved. Mitsubishi representatives didn't immediately respond to a request for comment about the commercial-van variant from AutoblogGreen, but we expect to be hearing more about it soon.

Long-serving Mitsubishi president Masuko to step aside

Fri, 31 Jan 2014

Long-struggling Mitsubishi Motors is reportedly preparing for a changing of the guard at home. According to Reuters, Osamu Masuko will step aside in favor of Tesuro Aikawa, currently the company's managing director. Masuko won't be leaving the fold entirely, however - he will take the role of chairman, displacing Takashi Nishioka, who will resign. The shakeup has not been confirmed by Mitsubishi, but word is that the changes will take effect April 1.
Mitsu's US troubles are no secret, but the brand's struggles in its home market haven't been quite so publicized. The company was bailed out by other arms of the Mitsubishi empire, and it just raised $2 billion this month to buy back preferred shares that were issued during the bailout. Masuko served as president for nearly ten years, during which the brand's US efforts utterly stalled out, recalls cropped up in Japan and an alliance with Daimler (which was DaimlerChrysler at the time) disintegrated.
According to Reuters, establishing the kind of alliances that will allow the brand to grow, such as its tie-up with Renault-Nissan, are key to Mitsu's long-term success. The thought is that an alliance will allow the brand to come up with some innovative models that won't be compromised by its lack of production scale. It looks like Aikawa has his work cut out for him.

Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution will live through 2015

Thu, 29 May 2014

If it were only so easy for humans. Mitsubishi has extended the life of the Lancer Evolution X by at least a year. An MMNA spokesperson tells AutoGuide that it is "committed to introducing the 2015 model year Lancer Evolution," noting that production for said models will begin in July. This gives us a year of clarity about the future of a model whose future blinks in and out of existence quicker than a boson particle.
As far as we can tell, the Evo as we know it is definitely going to die, the question is when. In March, Mitsubishi said it "does not have any plans to design a successor with the current concept, as a high-performance four-wheel drive gasoline-powered sedan." What is rumored to fill the hole left by the Evo might or might not be a linear descendent, but is expected to be some kind of hybridized high-performance model about which much has been speculated.
MMNA PR manager Alex Fedorak told Autoblog, "Mitsubishi Motors North America, Inc. (MMNA) is committed to introducing the 2015 model year Lancer Evolution in the U.S. Production of North American-specification Lancer Evolution models for the 2015 model year will commence in July 2014." Our previous advice still stands, however, even with the extension: If you want one, get an Evo while you can.
