Up for sale I have a 2006 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution GSR with 7,555 original miles! That is NOT a typo! Seven thousand five hundred and fifty five miles! This is definitely the lowest mile EVO IX you will find for sale today or in the future. There might be a few other unicorns out there in the wild but if it has lower mileage than this one, the owner probably won't be selling it anytime soon! This is your chance to basically rewind the clock to 2006 and almost buy this car brand new! Look at the pictures, your eyes are not deceived!
This car has sat in a garage in Texas since 2007 which is why it is so well preserved! I'd like to think I'm a pretty honest guy so because of that I try to disclose everything I know about a vehicle that I'm selling. I bought this car as an investment back in July of last year. There is a reason why this car has sat since 2007, the engine chipped piston #1. I don't know the full story but I can only assume that the original owner turned the boost up with a manual boost controller and the car wasn't properly tuned which lead to higher EGTs and piston #1 failing. It could also be a fluke but since I've worked on these vehicles professionally since 2006, I'm more inclined to believe the former rather than the latter. So I guess it's time for me to tell you a little bit about myself so you know who restored this beauty back to it's former glory. My name is Greg and I own UCS Performance located in Beltsville, MD. I've been working on EVOs professionally since 2006 and under my own company's banner since 2010. EVOs that I have built or have had a hand in building have won numerous events in road racing including the 2007 NASA TTR class National Championship beating Buschur Racing and Robi Spec, multiple Redline Time Attack victories on the east coast in 2006-2008, two SCCA T2 class National Championships and multiple year division champion for car #34 owned and driven by Marty Grand just to name a few! Now that I've established some of my pedigree, let's get back to this beautiful wicked white EVO IX GSR. This is a one owner car that like previously stated had an engine issue that caused this car to sit in a garage in Lubbock, Texas until last year when I bought it. The owner was a non smoker and thanks to the favorable weather conditions in Texas this car was well preserved with no rust taking hold of her. I paid a premium for this car because of the ridiculously low mileage. Finding a car with this low of mileage, especially for the much desired EVO IX is extremely difficult. On top of that, it's wicked white! There were about 3500 EVO IX GSR's imported into the country and wicked white is the second rarest to electric blue. The vehicle came to me with the cylinder head removed and in a box. The damage to piston #1 was quite evident. Not horrible but the piston definitely lost a bit of it's crown. There was no bore damage and a simple quick hone was able to restore the bore to its OEM state. I purchased a new piston and ring set and installed the new piston with the ring set gapped to the proper specs. The cylinder head went to one of my local machine shops to be refreshed and resurfaced since it had been sitting for several years. Once I received it back I reinstalled it with a new OEM headgasket and new OEM head bolts. The turbo was inspected and there was no damage to the turbine wheel from piston #1 losing a bit of it's mass. The vehicle also came to me without any seats as I guess the previous owner sold it for whatever reason. I installed black leather seats from a IX GSR that had the SSL option package. I think the black leather compliments the white color perfectly, much better looking than the stock blue and black Recaro's that came in the vehicle originally. The seats are in great condition and came out of an EVO IX that had about 35k miles on it before it was converted to a race car. While I had the car on the lift I went through her with a fine toothed comb. All fluids were replaced due to her sitting for almost 7 years. Engine oil and coolant are obvious because of the repair to the engine. I also flushed the brake fluid and replaced all drivetrain fluids with OEM fluids direct from Mitsubishi. This includes the transmission (MT 75W-85), transfercase (Diaqueen LSD gear oil), ACD system (SP III) and the rear differential (Diaqueen LSD gear oil). The brakes and CV joints were checked, wheel bearings were checked, all bushings and boots were checked and nary a problem was found. This car is in FANTASTIC shape! The OEM clear coat on the Brembos is in great shape with just a hint of fading starting to appear around the brake bleeders. A compression test has been performed after the repair to the engine and the compression numbers are right at OEM specs. OEM specs for the MIVEC version of the 4G63 found in the EVO IX is 140 PSI. The results varied from 138 PSI to 145 PSI. Damn near perfect! There is video below of the compression test! The vehicle is totally stock except for three things. First the windows are tinted. Second it is on lowering springs. I'm not exactly sure which ones, but it's lowered. I do have stock springs in case someone really wanted that but I think it looks great just the way it is. Lastly it's on aftermarket wheels and tires. The wheels are HD Tuning Clutch wheels in black. They are 18x9 and wrapped in Nitto INVO's with a 245/40/R18 tire. Both the wheels and tires are BRAND NEW. The pictures below do not reflect the fact that the OEM undertray IS installed on the vehicle. It was removed to service the vehicle and has been reinstalled after I took pictures of the squeaky clean underside! The vehicle has a clean title with no liens. There is a lien on the title but it HAS been released! When you do a search on this vehicle you will see multiple titles reissued to the same owner. Once at its original purchase, again in 2009 which must have been due to a lost title and then again in 2013 when the original owner screwed up filling out the title and had to have a copy reissued. Finally, on to the important part, the pictures!
Obviously this is a large purchase, you may call me at my shop at 301.595.1795 to discuss the vehicle if you so choose. |

Nissan's Carlos Ghosn offers to wear electronic ankle tag if released
Mon, Jan 21 2019TOKYO — Ousted Nissan Chairman Carlos Ghosn has offered to wear an electronic ankle tag and hire guards to monitor him in an unusual bid to secure his release on bail after two months of harsh detention in Japan for alleged financial crimes. Ghosn is also willing to remain in Tokyo, where he has leased an apartment, and post stock he owns in Nissan as collateral, his spokeswoman said. A new bail hearing is set for Monday after an earlier request was denied due partly to concerns the French executive was a flight risk. His release would allow Ghosn to meet more frequently with his lawyers and defend himself before the board of Renault, where he remains chairman and CEO, amid calls for his removal and potential moves to restructure the Nissan tie-up. Ghosn denies any wrongdoing as he awaits trial on charges of financial misconduct. "I will attend my trial not only because I am legally obligated to do so, but because I am eager to finally have the opportunity to defend myself," Ghosn said in a statement on Sunday. "I am not guilty of the charges against me, and I look forward to defending my reputation in the courtroom." Meanwhile, Ghosn's wife, Carole Ghosn, has written to French President Emmanuel Macron to discuss her husband's situation, her public relations representative said. The representative, Devon Spurgeon, confirmed a report in French paper Journal du Dimanche that a letter had been sent to Macron this month, but declined to provide details. France wants a full merger As Ghosn's arrest on Nov. 19 continued to cloud the outlook for Nissan's three-way alliance with France's Renault and Mitsubishi Motors, Nissan said it was not the time to discuss revising the partners' capital ties. Ghosn, who spearheaded Nissan's turnaround two decades ago, had pushed for a deeper tie-up between Nissan and Renault, including possibly a full merger by 2020, despite strong reservations at the Japanese firm. "We are not at the stage for such discussions," Nissan CEO Hiroto Saikawa told reporters on Monday. Saikawa said he had not heard directly about a reported proposal by the French government to integrate the Japanese carmaker's management with Renault. The Nikkei newspaper reported on Sunday that a French government delegation had informed Tokyo that it would seek an integration of Renault and Nissan, most likely under the umbrella of a single holding company. "Since I have not heard this directly, I cannot comment," Saikawa told reporters.
Final edition Mitsubishi Evo X arrives next June as 5MT GSR
Sat, Nov 29 2014Jalopnik recenly held an online Q&A session with Don Swearingen, an executive vice president at Mitsubishi Motors North America. If you're into Mitsu you should peruse the whole thread because questioners jumped all over the subject map, asking about getting the Delica here (not going to happen) and a new Montero (another concept presaging production is coming to the Chicago Auto Show next year), the company's fleet vehicle stance (they kill residuals, Mitsu isn't interested), and a Mirage racing series (right now it doesn't make sense). But for any enthusiast, every question not dealing with a new Lancer Evolution XI is merely a side dish. On that note, Swearingen took his turn ringing the death knell for the Evo series, saying "There are currently no plans for an Evo XI," which is kinder than his words at the LA Auto Show when he told Motor Trend, "Its time has come and gone." Nevertheless, he gave us a few more details on the final edition Evo Special Action Model that Automotive News reported on three months ago: it will be a GSR five-speed with "More horsepower, some suspension tuning, and some bits pieces that are still being finalized. Around 2,000 units will be available." Those of you hoping for a spiffier interior or a massive curb weight diet won't take much solace from that, but the 2,000 or so buyers who get to drive the hommage to The Once and Future King probably won't mind.
