1992 Mitsubishi 3000GT VR-4 Twin Turbo All Wheel Drive

98,485 Original miles, 5 speed transmission, 4 heel Steering, Electronic Controlled Suspension

Pearl White exterior with black leather interior

I am selling my VR-4 due to relocating for work and will not have the space to keep the car anymore. It is a beautiful vehicle that turns heads every where I would take it. I have owned the car for 7 years and have only put about 12k miles on it since I have owned it. It is a rare car in rare condition.  It runs and drives great with the electronic suspension and 4 wheel steering. It has a lot  of power and really sticks to the ground.  I have done a lot of work to the car to maintain it, but it does not have a lot of aftermarket parts and has not been raced or abused. It has a rare color combination of pearl white with black leather interior. It is in great shape for a 22 year old car. This is a non-smoker vehicle and I purchased the car from the second owner. I have babied the car since I have owned it because their are not many left in this condition or any condition for that matter. It has normal wear and tear for a 22 year old car and I will try to highlight every known defect of the vehicle that I can think of. The paint is in great shape but it does have a few scrapes and dings from over the years that I will try to detail below. This car has always been taken care of and I have spent a lot of time and money on this car. It has all the features that the VR-4 had in 1992, including power seats, steering wheel controls, etc.The car is being sold as is where is, no test rides, I have taken the insurance and tags off of the vehicle with anticipation of selling and moving. I live in a private area that I can show you the car runs great and drives fine. However, I will not permit anyone to take the car onto the main roads because it does not have insurance on it and I will not risk the vehicle. If you have any questions feel free to ask and the car is for sale locally as well.

Spectator killed in seventh stage of Dakar Rally

Tue, Jan 12 2016

Not surprisingly, tragedy has struck at the Dakar Rally this year. A vehicle hit a spectator in the seventh stage of the rally on Saturday, along the stretch between Uyuni, Bolivia, and Salta, Argentina. Running in 52nd place, the Mitsubishi Lancer driven by French contestant Lionel Baud hit a 63-year-old spectator. Emergency medical personnel responded to the accident, only to declare the man dead on the scene. This was the second time a competing vehicle collided with spectators in this year's event. During the Prologue stage a week ago, Guo Meiling drove her Mini into a crowd of spectators, injuring eleven – including a father and son who were hospitalized in critical condition. This is the first time, however, that a death occurred as part of the rally since 2013, when a support vehicle collided with two taxis in Peru and killed two. Though still in progress, this year's rally has been dominated thus far by the Peugeot team. All but the opening Prologue stage have been won by the French team, with Sebastien Loeb winning three out of six full stages run so far. His teammate Stephane Peterhansel has won another two, while Carlos Sainz won the tragic seventh stage on Saturday. Following Sunday's rest day, there remain another six stages before the rally concludes in Rosario on January 16.

Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV faces longer delays, might not arrive until 2016

Thu, 22 May 2014

It seems every time the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV makes the news the information concerns a delay, and the reason always centers on its batteries. Four months ago the culprit was restricted battery supply from Lithium Energy Japan, pushing the arrival to 2015. This time it's no different, with Automotive News reporting that a battery-related request made by California state regulators will push the Outlander PHEV arrival back to "late 2015 or early 2016."
CA authorities want all plug-in hybrids to be fitted with a monitor for the lithium-ion batteries that will be on the lookout for degradation, the concern being that diminished batteries could change the vehicle's emissions. Getting the technology fitted and tested means something like a 16- to 22-month delay.
The extra time, however, should let Mitsubishi figure out what it's going to do about its battery supply since the current level of 4,000 per month isn't enough to support a US launch; the Automotive News article says Mitsubishi expects a volume of 63,000 plug-ins for 2016. The company hasn't said how it plans to make up the balance.

Mitsubishi admits it lied about MPG ratings for all vehicles in Japan

Wed, May 11 2016

Like the Volkswagen diesel emission scandal, news about Mitsubishi's lies over fuel-economy ratings for its Japanese market vehicles is going from bad to worse. First, it was just a few kei cars. Then it was vehicles made as far back as 1991. Now Mitsubishi has admitted deceptive mileage test data could affect every vehicle it has sold in Japan, but not vehicles sold elsewhere. We suspect that this will not cause the EPA to relax its request for more information from the Japanese automaker to see if any vehicles sold in the US are affected. Mitsubishi Motors North America has said its US numbers are legit. In a letter to the Japanese government, Mitsubishi said that even though its managers knew getting good fuel economy ratings was a difficult task, they didn't ask too many questions of the engineers actually doing the tests. That allowed those employees to fake some of the numbers. Exactly what the repercussions will be in Japan is not known, CBS News says, both in terms of fines or penalties and how to compensate people who bought these vehicles. Reports are also just coming in that the fuel scandal might lead to Nissan taking control of Mitsubishi. More on this as it develops.
