Please see all the info on my car below. If you have any questions at all, please contact me and I will try to answer ASAP. Serious Buyers only. I tried to put everything I could possibly think of below about my car, mods, maintenance, etc. I really don't want to sell it but I can't have two cars anymore! I'd rather see someone else really enjoy the car like I did. All of the photos were taken on 10/15/13 as well as the video. It has a few dents/dings that a typical car with 125k miles would have but honestly nothing major at all.

Short Throw TWM Shifter (have stock one for you as well)
Eibach Sport Line Lowering Springs (have stock ones for you too as well as receipts/warranty info from Eibach)
The ES Model doesn’t have a Navigation Unit so I hard wired a Garmin as shown in photos. I will leave this in the car since it’s a nice setup! Automatically goes on and off when car starts/turns off. Has a hinge on it so it can be hidden if desired when parking/etc.
Some small interior mod’s (re-wrapped dash in cloth, blacked out some minor things)
Too many other small mod’s to list!
Issues:
The car came equipped with tire pressure monitor sensors. I sold my stock rims and upgraded as shown. The yellow light is on thinking the tires are flat since the new tire/rim setup doesn’t have those sensors. You can buy 4 sensors for about $100 and have a tire shop install them. I did not because it didn’t bother me as I knew exactly the cause and I check my tire pressure on a bi-weekly basis.
Car came equipped with Bluetooth connectivity for Hands Free calling. It isn’t currently working. After reading forums my assumption is it needs a new module located under the dash. Probably about $100ish to fix or cheaper if you are a DIY'er like myself.
Instead of you coming to see the car and not knowing any issues I am trying to wrack my brain to ensure I let you know about any issues I can possibly think of!
Other info I thought was important to tell you:
I am a 30 year old non smoking male and this car is in great shape. It is my daily driver and I always stayed on top of my maintenance. I know buying a car off of EBay requires a lot of trust from the seller and you can be rest assured that I am trying to be as honest as I can.
This was the first car I ever bought brand new and it’s treated me very well and I have done so in return. 99% of the work was done by myself and I have a file of receipts/etc. for you upon pickup. I’d say a good 85% of these miles are highway, I used to work 6 days a week and traveled about 45 miles each way.
Truly the only reason I am selling the Lancer is because I was given an '04 Audi (I need to send a thank you card to my Aunt haha) and I want to try out an AWD Turbo for a NJ winter! So sadly it’s time to sell my Lancer. If you have any questions whatsoever just ask me and I’ll answer ASAP.
I thought it would be cool to take a quick YouTube video for anyone interested in the car. This was done on 10/15/13. Here is the link for an interior/exterior overview (I know I would want to see a video if I were buying a car on eBay again!):

The worst rally driver you've ever seen
Wed, 14 Aug 2013Fast 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.
MotorWeek remembers a better time for Mitsubishi performance
Fri, Feb 26 2016Dodge still knows how to create an capable performance car – look at the Hellcats, for example – but the same isn't true for Mitsubishi. With the Lancer Evo's demise, we don't expect driving enthusiasts to clamor for any of the Japanese automaker's other products. Things used to be different, though. As MotorWeek found in its new Retro Review, the 1991 Mitsubishi 3000GT VR4 and its sibling, the Dodge Stealth R/T Turbo, were impressive sports coupes in their day. Dodge and Mitsubishi packed a bevy of cutting-edge tech into the coupes. In these trims, both sported all-wheel drive, four-wheel steering, an adjustable suspension, active exhaust, and automatic climate control. The 3000GT VR4 upped the ante even more with active aero parts at the front and rear. Their 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6 was good for 300 horsepower and 307 pound-feet, which were good numbers at the time. This pair put all their gizmos to good use, too. MotorWeek compares the all-wheel-drive system's grip levels to a Porsche 911 Carrera 4. When was the last time you heard any favorable similarity between a Mitsubishi and a Porsche? The Stealth R/T Turbo and 3000GT VR4 came from a special time for Japanese sports coupes, when every brand had a halo model. Whether you were looking at Nissan 300ZX, Mazda RX-7, Toyota Supra, or even the Acura NSX, there was a lot to like on the market. MotorWeek's latest Retro Review offers a great reminder of that period.
Mitsubishi's all-electric Pikes Peak challengers are in it to win it
Sun, 30 Jun 2013With a second-place finish already in the books from 2012, there's only one thing on the minds of Mitsubishi drivers Hiroshi Masuoka and Greg Tracy: winning. As the presenting sponsor for the 2013 Pikes Peak International Hill Climb, there's no doubt the Japanese manufacturer is hoping for a good showing this year, and the video you'll see below explains how Mitsubishi changed things this year to help ensure a win... basically, more power and more downforce.
Winning in 2013 certainly won't be easy. With competitors that include Nobuhiro "Monster" Tajima and Rod Millen, who's driving for Toyota, winners in 2012 in the Electric class. Our own Jonathon Ramsey sat down and spoke with the boys from Mitsubishi, and found that, if not for the over-the-top presence from Peugeot, the the all-electric MiEV Evolution II (which may be a sort of test-bed for potential Lancer Evolution-of-the-future components) may even be capable of challenging for the overall victory.
Their target: nine minutes and thirty seconds. We'll see how close they get later this afternoon. Scroll down below to watch the video.
