 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

Mitsubishi denies plans for Toyota/Subaru rival sports coupe

Tue, 23 Oct 2012

Forgive us for being wistful, but there was a time when Mitsubishi coupes and sports cars were the downright awesome. The 1990s brought us the all-wheel drive, turbocharged Eclipse GSX and the twin-turbocharged 3000GT VR-4 (seen here). The times, they were good.
Fast-forward to today, and the Lancer Evolution exists as Mitsubishi's sole, true performance offering. Mitsubishi killed off the Eclipse last year, by which time it had lost much the luster of its predecessors. With an affordable Japanese sports car fomenting underway thanks to Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ, one may think that it's an ideal time for a brand like Mitsubishi to jump back into the performance coupe game. A rear-drive Mitsubishi sports car to take on the Toyobaru twins could be just what the brand needs to gain some mindshare among consumers.
Not so, says Osamu Masuko. The president and executive director of Mitsubishi told reporters at the Sydney Motor Show, "Our engineers are very prominent to investigate new technologies, but to use that technology they are not that good to bring the revenue to make that money." Read: the engineers want to do it, but the company does not find it to be financially responsible.

The worst rally driver you've ever seen

Wed, 14 Aug 2013

Fast cars and excellent driving skills might be the easy answers when asking how to succeed in rally racing, but after watching this video, a good teammate is obviously an important aspect of this sport, too. During the 2013 Rally of Coimbatore in India, driver Samir Thapar and his co-driver, Vivek Ponnusamy, didn't seem to be on the same page as the two attempted to navigate the course in their Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution.
We'd probably hear drastically different stories if we talked to Thapar and Ponnusamy about this particular event, but you know things are bad when "stay on road" and "turn the wheel" are commands given by the co-driver (and yes, that's a man running for his life in the screen shot shown above). As it turned out, though, it seems like the Ponnusamy was justified in his concerns to take care of the racecar. Race results show that despite winning three of the seven stages, this team ultimately ended the race with a DNF.
Scroll down to watch the video, and even though it's been edited down from almost 40 minutes to less than four, we get the idea that it wasn't a pleasant experience for driver or co-driver.

2023 Japan Mobility Show Mega Photo Gallery: All the highlights and reveals from Tokyo

Fri, Oct 27 2023

The 2023 Japan Mobility Show managed to serve up a surprise heap of exciting and futuristic designs and production reveals. Our staff was on the ground in Tokyo for this year's show, where we captured not just all of the latest automotive trends, but some genuinely weird and fascinating stuff.  Browse: Some Delightful Oddities of the 2023 Japan Mobility Show But on to the cars. This year's show featured introductions from Daihatsu, Honda, Lexus, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Subaru, Suzuki and Toyota. Some are weird; some are wild; most are probably destined to change significantly before production or merely fade into the void with the rest of the industry's vaporware, but if even a few of these make it to showrooms, we'll consider it a win. Scroll on down for our live galleries of each of the show's major debuts (and cars we're only now seeing in person for the first time).
