This car is a true survivor that is very good condition for its age. I have spent the last year getting this unique car back on the road. It is a West Coast car and is rust free. I have only driven the car 300 miles since it's completion. Here is a detailed list of what has been professionally done to this car: Professional engine rebuild: Original block was hot tanked, bored, and milled. New pistons were installed and the connecting rods were reconditioned. The balance shaft was deleted and new timing chain and guides were installed. The original crankshaft was reconditioned. A new mild cam was installed. The head is a new non-jet type that was polished and intake and exhaust matched. New valves, guides, and seals were installed. ARP head studs were used to install the new head. All new seals, gaskets, and bearings were installed. The oil pump was replaced with a new unit as was the water pump. New engine mounts were installed prior to the engine being installed in the car. A new 14G turbo was installed with a new down-pipe. New Venom injectors were installed. A new Centerforce stage 2 clutch disc and pressure plate were mated to a lightened flywheel and installed. I installed an aluminum radiator with a custom shroud and two high volume electric fans. The car has an aftermarket polished intake pipe with an aftermarket blow-off valve. Other new components include: a new alternator, all new belts and hoses, and battery. A Kenwood stereo was installed that includes HD radio and Bluetooth. New Alpine component speakers were installed in the doors and Alpine 3-way speakers were installed in the back. It also has a digital Alpine amplifier and is wired for a sub. The interior of the car is in amazing condition! The original carpet was removed and professionally cleaned and then reinstalled. I had the original seats recovered in black vinyl with perforated inserts to match the original covers. The dash does not have any cracks. The center console armrest is intact and the pad is without defects. The automatic seatbelts work well. Both power windows roll up and down smoothly. The automatic locks work. All gauges and light work as they should. The digital climate control works. The car has been repainted some time ago but the paint is in good shape. It does have some scratches and the front air dam is damaged. The body is straight and is rust free. This car is for sale locally and this auction can be terminated by the seller at any time. |

Aggressive new Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV Concept-S coming to Paris
Tue, Sep 2 2014Already a hit in the rest of the world, the Mitsubishi Outlander Plug-In Hybrid is not coming to the US until late next year. That gives Mitsu plenty of time to upgrade the SUV to the next-generation model, and we might be getting a glimpse of what the US-speck Outlander PHEV will look like at the Paris Motor Show in early October. Take a look at the new "Sporty and Sophisticated" Outlander PHEV Concept-S that Mitsubishi is teasing in two dark images today. Mitsubishi says that what's being teased here is simply part of a "special package" that "magnifies the Outlander PHEV's unique driving experience." But, the last time Mitsubishi showed off an Outlander PHEV concept – at the 2012 Paris show – the production model ended up looking quite a bit like the show version. With aggressive lines all over the front fascia and bold strokes across the rear, the new concept certainly looks a lot better than the current model. We don't expect all of this auto show pizazz to make the final cut, but we like the direction that Mitsubishi is going here, extending the design language from the Outlander XR PHEV and GC-PHEV concepts from last year's Tokyo show. We should know more when we get to Paris on October 2nd. Until then, click on the images to get a better view and check out Mitsubishi's press release below. Mitsubishi Motors Europe issued the following news release at 6:00 pm on September 2, 2014. Paris, September 2, 2014 - Two years after it premiered its successful Outlander PHEV plug-in hybrid electric Twin Motor SUV/crossover at the 2012 Paris Motor Show, Mitsubishi Motors Corporation (MMC) has elected the "Mondial de L'Automobile" again – this time to unveil another PHEV vehicle: Outlander PHEV Concept-S. Sporty & Sophisticated The Outlander PHEV Concept-S is a concept model MMC proposes as a special package of the Outlander PHEV production model that has a refined interior and exterior design that magnifies the Outlander PHEV's unique driving experience. The Outlander PHEV Concept-S takes "Sporty and Sophisticated" as the theme for its design. This refined design expresses the unique combination of spirited 4x4 performance from its twin-motor PHEV system, soothing silent running, and superior on-road performance.
Our best look yet at the 2016 Mitsubishi Outlander
Sat, 08 Nov 2014Mitsubishi's has been busily clawing its way back from the brink of irrelevancy in the US market for several years. One of its most important models in that mission is the Outlander CUV, and as we can see from these spy photos, it's upcoming refresh is coming along nicely.
The Outlander was last redesigned for model year 2014, so it does feel a smidge early for a refresh. That said, thanks to a rather polarizing front fascia, we aren't totally surprised that Mitsu has gone to work so soon. Based on these spy shots, we wouldn't be totally surprised if the new Outlander borrowed the more attractive face of Outlander PHEV Concept-S, which was shown back in September during the Paris Motor Show.
It's impossible to tell if the rear of the car will borrow the huge, vehicle-spanning taillights of the Concept-S, but like the front end, we'd expect a fairly significant change to the back of the new Outlander. Our spies also captured a few shots of the cabin, although we don't see any dramatic differences from the current vehicle, aside from some different trim pieces.
No one wants to buy Mitsubishi's only US plant
Fri, Jan 8 2016Mitsubishi Motors will very likely close its factory in Normal, IL, later this year after failing to find another company in the auto market to take over its only manufacturing site in the US. "We have given up looking for an automaker to buy the plant, but we are looking for possible buyers from other industries," a Mitsubishi spokesperson told Reuters. Mitsubishi announced plans to leave the site in 2015 to shift its business strategy toward Asia. The factory started as a joint venture with Chrysler in 1988 and was the only plant from a Japanese automaker in the US with a UAW-represented workforce. This was allegedly a sticking point when finding a buyer because other companies in the industry didn't want to take on the union employees' contract. The Normal factory ended assembly of the Outlander Sport in November 2015 and laid off 1,000 workers at that time. The site will continue to make car parts until May, and then Mitsubishi will let go of the remaining 250 employees. The costs of shutting down the factory could be as high as 30 billion yen ($255 million), but a company spokesperson wouldn't confirm that figure to Reuters. Mitsubishi's fortunes seem on the upswing in the US as of late. The company's deliveries jumped 22.8 percent in 2015 to a total of 95,342 vehicles, and the last fiscal year brought the automaker's first operating profit in this region in seven years.
