Congratulations to atarirx & his 1995 MITSUBISHI 3000GT VR4
atarirx's Garage Link (http://www.3sgto.org/garage_vehicle.php?do=view_vehicle&id=461)

I purchased this VR-4 in October 2008 from the original owner with just over 50k on the clock after a long search for an unmodified, low mile, pearl blue '94 or '95. This one was somewhat local to me so I jumped on the opportunity. When I received the car it was 100% bone stock except for the wheels and for the most part I have kept it that way, the only exceptions being JDM tails, EVO MR BOV, and spark plug cover. I have even kept the OEM air box and battery.

The car is incredibly clean with an ivory leather interior and pop-up glass roof. Everything works perfectly including the Active Aero. It now has 74,xxx miles on it and is still going strong and it has been very reliable with very few mechanical issues.

Thanks everyone! This was my first ever ROTM entry and I certainly didn't expect to win. I really appreciate it.

Congrats! How many 3S do you have these days?

Gorgeous car - congratulations. :)

[atarirx]

I truly appreciate all the kind words. Not too many people keep these cars stock anymore and it's nice to get some recognition for maintaining a car in factory condition.

Jim - I have three right now, the 99 base that I've owned since new, the blue VR4 that I've had for about 6 years now, and a yellow 94 SL that I bought about a year and a half ago to use as my DD. Would love to add another Spyder again but no more space right now.

I've had the pleasure of seeing this car many times and it's as nice as you'll ever see. Clean, stock and gorgeous. Congrats!
