2013 Mitsubishi Evolution X New Engine, Only 5500 Miles Replaced Under Warranty! on 2040-cars
Los Angeles, California, United States
|
Up for sale is my 2013 Mitsubishi Evolution GSR. I have always wanted to own either an STi or an Evo X. I live near Angeles crest highway and would frequently hit the canyons with the vehicle and it is an amazing car to drive.The motor seized @ 5500 miles after a 30 mile drive from orange county. Cause of the failure was never determined and the motor was replaced under warranty no questions asked. I have the receipt from 2 days ago showing all the work that was done under warranty by Mitsubishi. The service manager took great care of me and once it was decided that it was under warranty, work began and was completely quickly. I was provided a Rental car from Enterprise during this time I am an older Evo owner (34) so I had no interest in modifying the drivetrain. I already have a track car that makes 590ft./lbs and 540whp. I just wanted a sporty daily driver to zip around town in. That's the best part about the Evo X is that it comes from the factory a well tuned machine. It is my daily driver, but I have found myself in a position where I would rather switch to a smaller SUV of some kind. My import days are over but were FUN! This car has never seen a drag strip (why race an AWD road racing car on a drag strip!?) It has also never seen a single track day or driving event. Strictly daily driving. The Engine Swap was completed 2 days ago under warranty by Mitsubishi technicians @ Mitsubishi on November 10th and I am currently breaking the motor in. At 1000 miles I will swap out the motor oil with Mobile 1 Synthetic. You are buying a chassis with 5500 miles, with a brand new warrantied motor. Only flaws are under the car, scrapes are on the front aero splitter from scraping driveways here and there. Only modifications are cosmetic, springs and wheels.;Here is a list of of the mods:: 1. Authentic Work Emotion CR Kiwami 18x8.5 wheels with the OEM Yokohama tires. Wheels will be polished before sale and car will be detailed .I still have the stock BBS wheels, which were run only 7 days!)
2. Swift Sport springs (about a 1" drop to remove the gap with the new wheels) Rides equal to stock springs. I was very happy with these.
3. 30% Llumar Smoke Tint on side and back window by Megaplex in Glendale.
4. Flat black 3m Vinyl wrap on roof by Megaplex in Glendale that gives the car that Glass roof look.
5.Escort ZR4 Laser Shifter stealth installed by Devin Oliver at Audio Advice in La Crescenta. Install is very stealth. Radar detector can be integrated with laser shifter's by plugging in (hard wired) just to the left of the rear view mirror. 2 Laser Sensors up front and 1 in Back on top of the license plate frame. This Laser Shifter is a LIFESAVER especially on holiday weekeneds I get lasered 3-4 times!
6. Perrin Performance Anodized Grey Shift Knob with adjustable height. 7.All decals from Perrin and work kept in a folder with all receipts and paperwork and OEM parts. 8. Most bulbs switched to LEDS. Daytime running lights, blinkers, blinker flash correction, Trunk Lighting, License Plate from PasswordJDM. Internal lights are incredibly bright, you can actually read a book... Car looks amazing with the Daytime running lights on. 9, Front Badge Plastidipped to black out the entire front grill, 10. Rear Badging removed, only "Evolution" remains No sign of the former emblems to be seen..Removed Badges included along with OEM shifter. Car is for sale both locally and elsewhere, seller reserves right to cancel auction at any time. Onto the pictures:

Mitsubishi i-MiEV rallies in WAVE 2014 as support vehicle
Wed, Mar 12 2014Hey, we found somebody willing to drive a new Mitsubishi i-MiEV over 1,000 miles. The little-bitty four-seat electric vehicle will be used on the other side of the Pond as a support vehicle in the World Advanced Vehicle Expedition (WAVE) road rally through the Swiss Alps this spring. Brian Orr from EV Matters Ltd. made the purchase, as he'll be providing the support vehicle for Green MotorSport Ltd.'s hand-built utility concept vehicle that's being built with an eye on deploying it in developing countries, the Auto Channel says. Another i-MiEV will be an official, 900 kilogram-plus entrant in the rally, which begins May 31 in Sindelfingen, Germany and finishes a week later in Rigi, Switzerland, with 20 towns or so in between. As many as 70 teams will be joining the party which, in 2013, set a world record for electric-vehicle parades by sending 305 of them very quietly through Zurich. Despite a tiny price tag, i-MiEV sales in the US (where it's simply known as the i) have come to a near halt as Mitsubishi gets ready to shift its plug-in focus to PHEVs. While US i sales jumped 75 percent last year to 1,029 units, the Japanese automaker has moved just four units (!) domestically during the first two months of 2014.
Mitsubishi Evo successor on hold?
Fri, 22 Nov 2013Just take one look at Mitsubishi's latest vehicles, both concept and production, and it's obvious that fuel economy - not performance - reigns supreme. With this in mind, it shouldn't be too much of a surprise that Caradvice.com.au is suggesting that Mitsubishi is putting development of future performance models (like the 2013 Lancer Evolution GSR shown above) on hold as the company focuses on electric and plug-in vehicles.
In speaking with Mitsubishi managing director of product projects Ryugo Nakao at the Tokyo Motor Show, the publication says that the entire Lancer redesign is on hold, meaning that the aging Lancer Evo and Ralliart will have to contend with fresh performance models like the Volkswagen GTI and Subaru WRX. That being said, the article doesn't completely shut the door on another Evo - in fact, it goes on to indicate that when a new generation does hit the streets, it will almost certainly do so with some sort of electric-assisted powertrain, an oft-repeated rumor that got its legs as early as 2010.
2014 Mitsubishi Outlander
Tue, 19 Mar 2013A Good Start On Halting The Slide
We'd like to say that Mitsubishi has had a tough time of it lately, but "lately" isn't exactly the proper descriptor since the brand's troubles have slowly built over the past decade or so. It cut back on its marketing and it cut model lines while leaving what remained in the equivalent of a product cryo-freeze. Then there was the financial crash and replacement models that didn't possess the same edge we expected from the house of the triple diamond. There was the lack of a North American chairman to fight for market-specific initiatives, and hence, models that lacked some of the details that US customers desired and that could sway buying choices in close races. True, that's a battle with an overseas headquarters that you'll hear from the US reps for almost every foreign automaker, but as you pile on the obstacles they multiply exponentially, not additionally. Or there's this: For more than a year, while its competition has been trumpeting new product, Mitsubishi hasn't had any new models. Like, at all.
That changes with the arrival of the 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander, an SUV that we're told will begin a new-product offensive over the next 18 months that - along with a much larger marketing budget - should begin to turn things around. This is the third generation of Mitsubishi's volume model, one that hasn't really been changed since it arrived in 2006 and wasn't just showing its age, but practically crowing about it.
