 2001 MITSUBISHI GALANT GTZ

The GTZ was basically a fully loaded, no-option car that had certain exclusive features, such as the spoiler, side cladding, and suspension. A nice GTZ is hard to find.

A two-owner car. I have owned this since April of 2002.

It has 156,150 miles. The motor runs very well and uses no oil.

At 144,627 miles the transmission was rebuilt at a cost of $2000+.

Timing belt was replaced at 115,000 miles.

Radiator and both hoses were replaced at 118,000 miles.

Mitsubishi Eclipse GT 18" wheels with Toyo Proxes 225/40ZR18 tires. The tires are pretty well worn out.

Eibach Pro-Kit lowering springs

Aftermarket halo headlights and alteeza taillights

Custom grille. I fabricated this myself and installed it when the headlights and taillights were put in.

Body and paint are very nice with just a couple of scratches and nicks. See photos. The paint is going bad on top of the rear-view mirrors, but is very nice everywhere else. Gas filler door is messed up and will not close properly. Again, see pictures.

Interior is very nice for age and mileage. Gray leather with factory floor mats. Headliner starting to come loose slightly at rear only. Dash has a crack. Clean trunk area

Everything works, engine runs very well, oil and filter always changed at 3000-4000 miles. Premium oil and filters always used. Clean engine compartment.

Transmission works properly. Rebuilt by a shop very familiar with Mitsubishi transmissions, so it was done right. I have the receipt for this.

There is a slight, intermittent vibration that occurs when under a load, that has been tentatively traced to a bad engine or transmission mount. This is not an engine or transmission vibration, nor is it tire or wheel related. The front rotors are just starting to cause slight steering wheel vibration when the brakes are applied. Easily corrected with new rotors or turning the ones on there now.

I strongly recommend you come and look at this car in person before you bid. This is one of the nicer Galant GTZs left. The high bidder will be responsible for paying for the car. There is no reserve. Please do not bid on the car first, then come look at it and decide you don't want it. This is not how it works.

See my feedback and bid with confidence. Car is sold as-is, where-is, with no warranty implied or stated. I am an individual, not a dealer.

Thanks for looking and good luck!

Mitsubishi hopes to raise $2.5B with stock sale

Wed, 22 Jan 2014

Mitsubishi, which dates all the way back to 1870, is one of the oldest business collectives in Japan. Today, the various businesses that share the Mitsubishi name are largely independent of each other. The automotive unit, however, has fallen on hard times over the past few years.
Back in 2004 and 2005, Mitsubishi Motors sold billions of preferred shares to sister companies like Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Mitsubishi Corp. Now the automaker is preparing to buy back those shares, only to raise the capital, it's selling $2.5 billion worth of shares, simultaneously paying stock dividends for the first time in over 16 years.
The stock issue will reportedly include as many as 241 million shares at a value of $10.73 each. The move is part of a long-term reorganization being implemented by the automaker's president Osamu Masuko, and is expected to help the company double its net income and eliminate all outstanding preferred shares by the end of the fiscal year closing in March.

This Mitsubishi Colt Galant is a GTO from Japan

Fri, Sep 18 2015

The letters GTO have been used by several automakers – each from different countries. Depending on where your automotive enthusiasm is centered, you might associate the name with Pontiac or with Ferrari. But those weren't the only ones to use those letters. So did Mitsubishi. In fact, the 3000GT (also known as the Dodge Stealth) that competed with the likes of the Toyota Supra and Nissan 300ZX back in the 1990s was sold as the GTO back home in Japan. But Mitsu didn't pull that name out of nowhere. It was merely the revival of an old nameplate. Back in the 1970s, Mitsubishi used those letters on a version of the Colt, of all things. And that's what Petrolicious has profiled in this latest video. This Seventies-era Mitsubishi Colt Galant GTO GSR belongs to one Matt De Mangos, an enthusiast, collector, and consummate tinkerer out in California who fell in love with the vintage pocket rocket. Since the Colt Galant GTO was designed for the Japanese Domestic Market, few ever made it to other markets. So De Mangos imported one privately to the United States, and invested a lot of time into researching and restoring the vehicle. The result may not be the usual classic you'd expect to see an American hot-rodder restoring, but that's apparently just the way Matt likes it. Hear his story in the video above.

Mitsubishi to showcase Outlander PHEV Concept-S in Paris

Mon, 22 Sep 2014

The Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV is rumored to finally come to the US next fall as a 2016 model. In the meantime, the Japanese brand is showing off a concept for an Outlander plug-in at the Paris Motor Show in October with a massive improvement in styling and material quality that the automaker calls the "Sporty and Sophisticated" design theme.
With just a nip and a tuck, Mitsubishi's stylists have made the Outlander PHEV look a whole lot better. Instead of the narrow, squinting look of the current model, the concept shows a more vertical design that puts a big X right on the front end. In the center, there is an updated version of the horizontal grille leading to reshaped headlights. The big changes are found somewhat lower, with an air dam that is much better integrated thanks to black and chrome accents to draw the eye. The company claims that the rear gets similar upgrades with new lights and shining trim running across the tailgate.
The improved styling gets carried inside, as well. According to Mitsubishi, the design features black wood grain trim and silver accents throughout the cabin, and the center console is inspired by Japanese black lacquer boxes. The seats are also covered in hand-stitched leather with horizontal ribs.
