Interior Mods:

Jensen Flip Up Screen Cd/DVD Player (Unsure of model, was in the car when I bought it)
May have aftermarket speakers from previous owner, since they sounded good enough for me to never feel like upgrading them.
2xJL 10's In a ported box, and a JL Amp (I'll have to check and see which models they were.)

Extras if wanted:

Aftermarket JDM Style Unpainted Rear bumper (Not sure of the brand, the guy I bought my other Evo from gave it to me because he didn't want it anymore)
Stock Exhaust
Stock Intercooler
Stock Springs (suspension)
Possibly Stock Intercooler Piping and intake if I still have it in the attic.


Condition

Small crack in front middle of bumper from a friend bumping into a parking space. Black stock lip is on the car from my other Evo. Normal Wear on steering wheel, Small Stain on driver seat and scuff on driver side of rear bumper (unknown origin of stain and scuff, was there when I purchased the vehicle). Stock wing was painted apex silver due to the carbon fiber being sun damaged when I purchased the vehicle. Left over paint from the wing was used to touch up the scuff on the rear bumper. The trunk carpet is in place, but the sub box was not bolted down and has slid around a bit and messed it up a little. I can take pictures if requested. Hopefully my honesty on the car doesn't hurt the sale, but I drove 4 hours to Houston, TX to pick up my Black Evo, and the seller was more or less honest about the car and has been helpful post sell with any questions I had about the mods he had made to it. I am more than happy to keep in touch with the buyer and answer any future questions they may have, but the mods are pretty straight forward.

Overall Interior/Exterior 9/10  - several small barely noticeable scratches/blemishes that I can notice, but no one else ever does unless I point them out. Most people don't even notice the small crack on front bumper or scuff on rear unless I point it out to them. Car has been garage kept since I purchased it with the exception of the last couple of weeks since my new Evo is in its place in the garage now.

I've always used mobil 1 extended performance oil and filter (The 15,000 mile oil) and changed it every 3-5k miles. I might be able to find receipts for some of the parts, I know I saw the one for the clutch/flywheel when I was cleaning it out.

Car is stock motor/stock turbo and was bone stock when I bought it. Car is unmolested. Carfax listed me as the 5th owner, but from what I can tell from it I am the 2nd non dealership owner. The car had 55k miles on it when I purchased it. Clean Carfax Report is available if requested.


Reason for Selling:

I bought a 2003 Tarmac Black one recently since I've always wanted a black one. The car I'm selling has never broken down or left me stranded in the 3-4 years and 40k miles I've had it, so it was no issue buying one a year older for me.

Call or text 225-seven seven 3-four424 if you call and I don't answer leave a voicemail. I work in plants and can't always have my phone on me, so texting is probably the best bet for initial contact.

The car is listed locally, and a few more miles will be put on it due to test rides for potential buyers, but that is all I have been driving it since I purchased the new one. 

SHIPPING/DELIVERY:   LOCAL PICKUP ONLY

PAYMENT: CASH OR CASHIER'S CHECK

IF REQUESTED, I AM WILLING TO MEET UP WITH A NEARBY MECHANIC SHOP OF YOUR CHOICE TO HAVE THEM LOOK OVER THE VEHICLE (AT BUYER'S EXPENSE IF THERE IS A FEE) IF YOU ARE FROM OUT OF STATE AND WOULD BE TRAVELING HERE TO PURCHASE THE VEHICLE.

If more pictures or additional information is needed, I will accommodate this to the best of my ability. (Pictures of specific areas in question) I travel with work, so may or may not be near the car in the event a request is made for pictures, but I should be able to get a coworker or my girlfriend to snap some shots if I am away and it is needed.

Thanks for looking.

Lawyer for Ghosn slams bail condition as human rights violation

Sun, Jun 2 2019

TOKYO (AP) — The lawyer for Nissan's former chairman Carlos Ghosn on Saturday criticized a bail condition that prevents his client from seeing his wife, as Ghosn awaits trial on financial misconduct charges. A judge has forbidden Ghosn from seeing his wife, Carole, including in the presence of lawyers, or talking to her on the phone. Prosecutors say the restriction is needed to prevent evidence tampering. "This is unfair," Takashi Takano, the lawyer, said in a phone interview, calling it a human rights violation. "It's cruel and unusual." His earlier appeal of the ban, rejected by district and appeals courts, went to the Supreme Court, which turned it down last month. The Supreme Court decision cannot be appealed, but Takano vowed to keep filing new petitions, stressing that the Supreme Court has not yet ruled on the constitutionality or the human rights aspects. The next one will be filed within two or three weeks, he said. Ghosn's lawyers recently filed a second petition with the U.N. Working Group on Arbitrary Detention, arguing that the restrictions on seeing his wife amount to a deprivation of fundamental human rights. Takano acknowledged that the situation looks dismal, as Japan's Supreme Court is not easily influenced by other governments' views or by public opinion. "Even the strongest man in the world can be stressed, psychologically damaged. That's very natural as a human being," said Takano, noting that Ghosn was holding up well compared to other clients he has had. Ghosn has been aggressively taking part in meetings with his defense team, according to Takano. The case has entered the stage known as "pre-trial sessions," during which both sides hand in evidence. A trial date has not been set. In Japan, preparations for trials routinely take months. Ghosn, who led Japanese automaker Nissan Motor Co. for two decades, was arrested in November and charged with falsifying financial documents in reporting retirement compensation, and with breach of trust in diverting Nissan money toward personal investment losses and a company effectively run by him. Ghosn, 65, a Brazilian-born Frenchman of Lebanese ancestry, has repeatedly said he is innocent, accusing some at Nissan of plotting against him and opposing a plan to merge Nissan with French alliance partner Renault. Renault is set to vote Tuesday on a possible merger with Fiat Chrysler.

Mitsubishi celebrates 30th anniversary in US with Outlander Sport Limited Edition

Thu, 29 Nov 2012

The hurrah of the last kind for the Mitsubishi Outlander Sport is this Limited Edition that celebrates 30 years of Mitsubishi Motors in North America. Built in North America as well, the 2013 Outlander Sport Limited Edition gets numerous black trim pieces outside, such as the center bumper, side mirror housings, wheel arch trim and skirting and roof rails. It sits on special Argent wheels.
Open the doors and the darkness continues with available Dove Grey and Black leather seating, and black leather parking brake sleeve, all accented by aluminum brake and accelerator pedals. On this model the six-way power driver's seat is standard. The sole performance mod is a new balancer shaft that makes for quicker acceleration without any penalty in the mileage rating.
You can start saying goodbye to this generation of the Outlander Sport in the high-res gallery above, and read more about it in the press release below.

Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV US launch delayed over battery shortage

Mon, 30 Dec 2013

Mitsubishi resumed full-scale battery production in August after a five-month shutdown due to a safety investigation. Supplier Lithium Energy Japan has been delivering 4,000 battery packs each month since September, but that's apparently still not enough to fill the overseas inventory pipeline for the Outlander PHEV and i subcompact EV while launching the Outlander PHEV here in the US. So instead of the previous tentative launch date of Fall 2014, the plug-in hybrid's Stateside on-sale date has been pushed back until 2015.
That's according to Automotive News, which also notes that Mitsubishi has sold 11,300 plug-in Outlanders this year, though that number reflects the production stoppage over the battery issues. As of April, battery supplier LEJ will be able to supply 5,000 packs per month just for the Outlander, but company president Osamu Masuko has gone on record saying that production will have to rise above that in order to make the US launch.
Every Mitsubishi dealer (and hopefully a fair number of consumers) will be looking forward to a crossover that, for the moment, doesn't really have natural rivals. The Outlander PHEV can drive 32 miles on electricity alone, has a top speed of 75 miles per hour in EV mode and offers all-wheel drive with a towing capacity of over 3,000 pounds. The model should get an impressive MPGe rating from the EPA when it finally arrives and it figures to be a bellwether for the plug-in Outlander Sport and Pajero utility vehicles that are expected to arrive after it. Hopefully 2015 will be its year.
