Hello, I have for sale a 1995 Mitsubishi 3000 GT that is a one owner car. It was purchased in 1995 and we have all
the original paper work including the window sticker. The car has been driven very little thus it only has 11,142
miles on it. The car is in like new condition. The protective bra was installed to protect the front end from
chips. The paint and finish are just like it was when it left the dealer in 1995. The interior smells like a new
car. This is truly a time capsule in every way. Below is some information about the 1995 Mitsubishi 3000GT
Second generation models are identified by a revised front bumper . The caps on the hood were
replaced with integrated blisters, and the side air vents and rear bumpers were modified. The interior was
redesigned with dual air bags, a new audio system, and revised air conditioning refrigerant. The engines in the
twin-turbo models received a slight boost in torque from 307 lb·ft (416 N·m) to 315 lb·ft (427 N·m).
With the all wheel drive advantage, blasting the 1/4 mile at 107 mph in 13.0 seconds.
To complement this, the VR-4 now included a six-speed Getrag Bigger wheel/tire combinations were provided beginning in
1995. The base and SL model received 16" wheels in silver or chrome with 225/55 tires, while the VR4 now had 18"
chrome wheels with 245/40 tires (the Spyder had the standard 17" with higher profile tires from 1994 to handle the
additional 400 lb (180 kg)).
As the price of the cars increased, many of the "gadgets" on the car were discontinued. The tunable exhaust was
phased out after model year 1994, the ECS disappeared after the 1995 model year, and the active aerodynamics
disappeared after 1996. Finally, Chrysler ceased sales of the Dodge Stealth captive import, and for the remainder
of its life only Mitsubishi-badged versions were available.
Mitsubishi had produced a number of limited edition 3000GT VR4 convertibles. The rare special edition was known as
the Spyder VR4. Only 877 were imported to America. When the Spyder was released, it never reached the European and
Japanese market. The United States had their own version of the VR4. These cars were modified to be convertibles in
the United States by ASC Corporation. The U.S and the Mitsubishi factories worked with another company to convert
the 3000GTs into a hard-top convertible.The Spyder was one of very few hard-tops to release in the United States.
The Spyder was released in 1995 and ended production in 1996. In 1995 Mitsubishi's 3000GT Spyder was available in 4
different combinations: carson red w/ grey leather interior, sable black w/ ivory leather interior, glacier white
pearl w/ grey, and martinique yellow pearl w/ ivory leather interior. In 1996 the 3000GT Spyder was available in
four different options: caracas red w/tan interior, solano black pearl w/ tan leather, glacier white pearl w/ tan
leather interior, and pamana green pearl w/ tan leather. Its many unique color options, and hard-top convertible
gave the vehicle a unique history, and created a cosmetic impact in the auto industry. While the cosmetics of the
Spyder VR4 made it unique, its framework differed. The Spyder’s frame and bodywork was similar to their brothers,
the 3000GT SL and VR4 models. The Spyder model had its disadvantages over the VR4 and SL, due to heavy brackets
under the body. The extra weight under the body interfered with the handling. Due to slow sales of these vehicles,
Mitsubishi decided to discontinue the 3000GT VR4 Spyder. The SL Spyder's were only available in an automatic
transmission where the VR4 Spyder was only available in a 6 speed manual.
Japan's automotive design is usually driven by the pursuit of efficiency, agility and lightness. At the same time,
however, there's a definite obsession with technology: making everything electronic, inventing neat new gadgets and
generally providing complex answers to simple questions. For a perfect example of the latter philosophy, look no
further than the Mitsubishi 3000GT.

Mitsubishi struggling to sell doomed plant due to union workers
Sat, Oct 3 2015Mitsubishi is about to end vehicle production in the US, but the company is having serious problems finding a buyer for its Normal, IL, factory that currently assembles the Outlander Sport. A major sticking point, according to a report by The Wall Street Journal, is the plant's workforce of over 900 United Auto Workers members. The automaker has been trying to find another company to take over the site for months and has set November as the point to stop manufacturing there. The Normal, IL, factory is unique because it's the only plant in the country that's run by a Japanese automaker with a UAW-represented workforce, after starting as a joint venture with Chrysler. That makes Ford, General Motors, and FCA the preferred buyers because they could conceivably take over the union contract. However, the Blue Oval and the General likely aren't interested. According to plant officials speaking to The Wall Street Journal, FCA and some unnamed car companies are potential buyers, but there's absolutely nothing final, yet. Proponents argue that buying the location is cheaper than building a new one. Making matters harder is that the UAW and Mitsubishi are currently negotiating a new union contract, and the factory's next owner might have to take over the deal, according to the WSJ. The workers were ready to vote whether to strike recently, but that was averted when an announcement on the local's webpage said a tentative agreement was expected Sunday. Of course, the Big Three have been experiencing their own, similar issues with crafting deals, too. Related Video:
Mitsubishi Outlander, Evo to keep things safe at Pikes Peak
Tue, 18 Jun 2013Mitsubishi has already announced that it will be returning as a competitor to the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb with a pair of all-electric MiEV Evolution II racecars. In addition to these entrants, the automaker will also be the presenting sponsor of the race as well as providing the official safety vehicles to the event using specially prepped versions of the 2014 Outlander and Lancer Evolution.
While it isn't clear what exactly will be demanded of the safety vehicles, this isn't going to your run-of-the-mill pace car duty. To get the Outlander and Evo ready for the 156-turn, 12.42-mile course, Mitsubishi teamed up with companies such as BBS, Cobb Tuning, AEM and Muellerized Suspension Systems as well as DC Sports and Kenwood to create these one-off safety cars. These vehicles, and all the racecars, will be at Pikes Peak later this month for the 91st running of America's second-oldest racing event. Scroll down for the official press release.
Japanese earthquakes send ripples through auto industry
Mon, Apr 18 2016The earthquakes since April 14 in Japan's Kumamoto Prefecture on the island of Kyushu are having aftershocks on the US auto industry, particularly for Toyota. The company shut down most of its factories in the country due to parts shortages, and the plants will be closed at least through April 23. "Decisions regarding recommencement of operation at plants in Japan will be made on the basis of availability of parts," the company said in a statement. According to Automotive News, Toyota's closed factories include a vast range of popular models in the US, including the Toyota Prius, Mirai, RAV4, 4Runner, Land Cruiser, Lexus ES, LS, IS, GS, RC, NX, RX, GX, and LX. The company's only sites in Japan that are still open build Hino trucks, Daihatsu models, and the Toyota Century limo. Toyota isn't yet sure whether these shutdowns could lead to vehicle shortages in the US. "As you can imagine, we are still reviewing the situation and working to learn more," company spokesperson Aaron Fowles told Autoblog. "While we know that production will be suspended in stages at most of our vehicle assembly facilities in Japan between April 18th and the 23rd, we do not know if they will continue production suspensions. Also, any effects to our inventory and/or sales have yet to be determined." He expects the automaker to know more in the coming days. Many of the affected Toyota plants aren't even in Kumamoto Prefecture, but major suppliers have factories in the region. For example, Aisin Seiki and Renesas Electronics both had to shutdown operations at plants in the area, according to Automotive News. Toyota isn't the only automaker affected. Nissan experienced a brief slowdown but was back to work on Monday, and Honda has suspended a motorcycle plant in the region until Friday. Mitsubishi had to close a production line due to the parts shortage, according to The Japan Times, but it didn't affect US models. "A supplier to our Mizushima plant has been impacted but they only supply an engine part for our mini car line. That line has been temporarily shut down due to that situation," spokesperson Alex Fedorak told Autoblog. "That same plant builds the Lancer and i-MiEv and there has been no impact to that line and production continues uninterrupted." Two major quakes hit Kumamoto Prefecture around Kumamoto city in the past week. The first on April 14 measured 6.4 magnitude, and a second on April 16 measured 7.3.
