well here it is the 1997 3000 gt vr4 twin turbocharged corvette killer super car. im the second adult owner of this car that sold for 46,613.00 in 1997. i have the oem window sticker and a lot of other paper work you may be interested in if you buy this car.this car was never smoked in and the interior is 99% , and the back seat has almost never been used. the engine was freshened up less than 600 miles ago with new rings, main bearings, rod bearings,water pump, timing belt tensioner and pulleys and the new style hyd. lifters, plus all gaskets and fluids. there is a factory spare and a full size oem wheel spare with new regular size tire in the back. neither tire has ever been on the ground. im a 35 plus year master mechanic and nothing is mechanically wrong at all with this car. i have larger fuel injectors and stainless steel exhaust manifolds that are still in the boxes that will go with the car. the only upgrades done to the car are slotted and drilled brake rotors with heavy duty bake pads, otherwise its totally stock but very fast.this car is all wheel drive all the time with 4 wheel steering. it corners and handles like its on rails. ive had the car going on 5 years but have new interest now. i have put on less than 3000 miles since owned. the engine was freshened up because of the known valve ticks they have and my desire for it to be perfect. it was not blown up or did it spin a bearing. i still have old bearings id be glad to show you. the only thing this car needs to be 100% is a new paint job and some minor dings repaired. its all cosmetic. ill tried to get this in the pictures ive taken but it still hard to see it all. you could drive it as is and not worry or repaint it and make it as new. this car is getting very hard to find low milage not beat up or abused.it will be a collectors car in the near future. i will have a fair reserve set and if not sold for that price i will get repainted myself and relist at latter date. feel free to call and ask questions or ask here and ill get back asap. but calling would be better and faster, but no texts will be answered or given. pictures will be coming soon. i reserve the right to sell (here) before listing may be done. payment must be in cash or cashiers check on local bank only. must be paid for and picked up with in 4 days of sell unless agreed or oked by me. you will have to pickup will not ship or deliver. thanks for looking 719-651-1935

Swarm of bees descends on man's Mitsubishi
Tue, May 24 2016A man in Wales got quite a shock when he returned to his car only to find it covered in bees. According to the South Wales Evening Post, an unnamed driver parked Mitsubishi Outlander in front of the Three Crowns Pub in Haverfordwest, a city in Pembrokesire, Southwest Wales. When he returned, he discovered a large swarm of honeybees had come to roost on the rear of the car. Thankfully, before anyone could disturb the bees, a Pembrokeshire Coast National Park ranger named Tom Moses came across the scene. "It was spectacular, I was driving through when I sported the big brown splodge," Moses told the Evening Post. "A lot of people were really amazed by it, cars were slowing down and people were taking pictures of it." The bees were swarming the car after their queen became lodged in the trunk, according to the Guardian. Moses has an interest in bees and often speaks to people about the ways in which bees are threatened by pesticides and habitat destruction. "At the national park, we like people to be aware of how important bees are and how people should be looking after them," Moses told the paper. The ranger contacted the Pembrokeshire Beekeepers' Association and two members came out to collect the swarm. "I was a little bit concerned, with it being in the middle of town outside a pub, that someone might do something stupid and get hurt or do something stupid and hurt the bees," Moses said. His concern is valid. It's a very bad idea to tangle with stinging insects when you don't know what you're doing. Bees swarm to protect their queen, and are liable to swarm anything they see as a threat. If you ever find yourself in this unlikely scenario, call a professional beekeeper who can safely remove the hive. Avoid hiring an exterminator though. Bee populations have a hard enough time as it is. Honeybee die-offs and disappearances have been on the rise since 2006. According to the United States Department of Agriculture, one of the primary culprits is Colony Collapse Disorder, which happens when all adult workers in a hive disappear leaving only immature bees and a queen behind.

Mitsubishi ready to expand PHEV lineup with ASX, Pajero
Sun, Oct 12 2014Mitsubishi likes what it's seen from plug-in hybrid sales of its Outlander SUV in Europe. Now, it looks like the Japanese automaker will go back to that proverbial well within the next few years. And, once again, SUVs will be the medium. Mitsubishi will start selling plug-in hybrid versions of its ASX compact crossover, the company's best-selling model in Europe, in 2017, Automotive News Europe says, citing comments from Osamu Masuko. A year after that, the company will debut the Pajero plug-in hybrid SUV. No details were disclosed about exactly what kind of PHEV powertains will be used in the vehicles, which will be part of the next-generation incarnations of both models. The ASX appears to be a good trial vehicle, given that more than 22,000 of them were sold in Europe through August, Automotive News reports, citing JATO Dynamics. Mitsubishi representatives didn't immediately respond to a request for comment from AutoblogGreen. The company appears to be looking to build on the success of the Outlander Plug-in Hybrid. Mitsubishi sold almost 9,000 Outlander PHEVs in Europe during the first six months of the year. That model pairs a 2.0-liter gas engine with an electric motor and has an all-electric range of about 32 miles.
2013 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport models with leather seats recalled over airbag fears
Tue, 25 Feb 2014Mitsubishi is recalling 733 of its 2013 Outlander Sports that were fitted with leather seat covers due to problems with the seat-mounted airbags. Apparently, the wiring for the airbags may have been routed incorrectly when the seat covers were installed at the port.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration bulletin, the issue only really crops up if owners adjust the height of the seats. Naturally, if the seat wiring is damaged, the airbag may not deploy in the event of a side impact.
The affected vehicles were all manufactured between July 20, 2012 and May 29, 2013. There have been no reported injuries or accidents due to this issue. Mitsubishi, meanwhile, will begin notifying owners, who will need to report to their local dealer for free inspections or repairs. Take a look below for the bulletin from NHTSA.
