1992 Mitsubishi 3000GT VR-4 Twin Turbo All Wheel Drive

98,485 Original miles, 5 speed transmission, 4 heel Steering, Electronic Controlled Suspension

Pearl White exterior with black leather interior

I am selling my VR-4 due to relocating for work and will not have the space to keep the car anymore. It is a beautiful vehicle that turns heads every where I would take it. I have owned the car for 7 years and have only put about 12k miles on it since I have owned it. It is a rare car in rare condition.  It runs and drives great with the electronic suspension and 4 wheel steering. It has a lot  of power and really sticks to the ground.  I have done a lot of work to the car to maintain it, but it does not have a lot of aftermarket parts and has not been raced or abused. It has a rare color combination of pearl white with black leather interior. It is in great shape for a 22 year old car. This is a non-smoker vehicle and I purchased the car from the second owner. I have babied the car since I have owned it because their are not many left in this condition or any condition for that matter. It has normal wear and tear for a 22 year old car and I will try to highlight every known defect of the vehicle that I can think of. The paint is in great shape but it does have a few scrapes and dings from over the years that I will try to detail below. This car has always been taken care of and I have spent a lot of time and money on this car. It has all the features that the VR-4 had in 1992, including power seats, steering wheel controls, etc.The car is being sold as is where is, no test rides, I have taken the insurance and tags off of the vehicle with anticipation of selling and moving. I live in a private area that I can show you the car runs great and drives fine. However, I will not permit anyone to take the car onto the main roads because it does not have insurance on it and I will not risk the vehicle. If you have any questions feel free to ask and the car is for sale locally as well.

2014 Pikes Peak Hill Climb: Final Practice Day 4 and pre-race notes

Sun, 29 Jun 2014

The running order has been established for the 92nd running of the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb for all classes and everyone's had all the practice they're going to get. On Sunday, June 29, the 14,110-foot-high mountain will ask each of them, "Who wants some?" Unlike previous years, while the bikes will run according to class, the cars will run according to their qualifying times set on the bottom section of the course, regardless of division, the fastest guys going first.
That puts Romain Dumas at the head of the 67 car entries, having set a time of 3:37.525 in his Norma M20 RD in the Unlimited Class, but the next Unlimited entry doesn't appear until sixth, Piero Nappi in his Picchio P4 pp with a time of 4:03.357. In between them, the two Mitsubishi MiEV Evolution IIIs start second and third in the Electric Modified class, that first one driven by Greg Tracy 11 seconds behind Dumas. Then comes Monster Tajima is his E-Runner Pikes Peak Special, then Paul Dallenbach leading the Open Wheel class, four positions ahead of the next Open Wheel competitor.
Leaders in the other classes: Michael Skeen driving a Nissan GT-R in the Open class in seventh, 12 positions ahead of the next class entrant; Jeff Zwart in eighth, driving a Porsche 911, will be the first in Time Attack 1, his competition starting right behind him; Robert Prillka in 21st is the first Time Attack 2 entry in a Porsche 911 GT3 Cup, three positions ahead of the next entry; in 23rd is Christopher Lennon in his 1973 Porsche 911 in the Vintage class, the next Vintage entry in 37th; the first Exhibition entrant is Donald Huffman in a Radical RXC in 50th, four positions ahead of the next in-class competition; and representing for Electric Production is Roy Richards in a Honda Fit EV.

Mitsubishi exec says Evo 'will be replaced in spirit' by high-po hybrid SUV

Thu, 02 Oct 2014

Stop us if you've heard this one: According to Autocar, the current generation will be the last Mitsubishi Evolution we will ever see.
That, while unfortunate for driving enthusiasts, is a reality we've had plenty of time to digest. The days of wanton fuel burning for the sake of speed and power will soon come to an end. But that doesn't mean the days of performance have to die, too. "Green is still fun to drive," said Mitsubishi UK boss Lance Bradley in a conversation with Autocar. "It's a challenge to make it fun, but not a particularly difficult one. Electric vehicle performance is very good."
So, should we expect a new hybrid sedan to take up the mantle left by the Evo? Not so much. The British magazine quotes Kanenori Okamoto of Mitsubishi as saying, "It will be replaced in spirit by an SUV with high performance," which will apparently incorporate lessons learned in the automaker's efforts at Pikes Peak. The Mitsubishi MiEV Evolution III, which handily broke the EV record at the famed mountain course, will donate much of its high-performance, zero-emissions technology to the project, including its Super All Wheel Control four-wheel-drive system.

Mitsubishi Outlander, Evo to keep things safe at Pikes Peak

Tue, 18 Jun 2013

Mitsubishi has already announced that it will be returning as a competitor to the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb with a pair of all-electric MiEV Evolution II racecars. In addition to these entrants, the automaker will also be the presenting sponsor of the race as well as providing the official safety vehicles to the event using specially prepped versions of the 2014 Outlander and Lancer Evolution.
While it isn't clear what exactly will be demanded of the safety vehicles, this isn't going to your run-of-the-mill pace car duty. To get the Outlander and Evo ready for the 156-turn, 12.42-mile course, Mitsubishi teamed up with companies such as BBS, Cobb Tuning, AEM and Muellerized Suspension Systems as well as DC Sports and Kenwood to create these one-off safety cars. These vehicles, and all the racecars, will be at Pikes Peak later this month for the 91st running of America's second-oldest racing event. Scroll down for the official press release.
