For $13k it looks like a good deal. Car is located in FL so salt might be an issue, but it appears garage kept.
Cars for Sale: 1992 Mitsubishi 3000GT VR-4 in Tallahassee, FL 32309: Hatchback Details - 313702577 - AutoTrader.com
Don't see many 3Ss with so few miles these days.
Very nice!Quote:

Ha, nice catch, Rob.
So... What? They drove it once a year and smashed the hell out of the front active aero on curbs?
Gee whiz, guys - I was gonna buy it...:)
Really?! I'm not saying not to, but I'd want to get a set of experienced 3S eyes on it. Congrats if you do (and it's mint like you'd hope).Quote:

Didn't notice the center caps. The black trim piece on the front is in good condition as are the fog lights. If it were a higher-mileage car I would expect these portions to be in much worse condition.Quote:

One more thing I notice - "VR-4" appears to be written on the doors. Looks like some sort of transparent decal.
Would be interested in a Carfax for this vehicle.
maybe 2500 on the rebuilt engine.... I'm calling shenanigans on this one.
See, I thought the same thing at first. I thought surely it was either a mistype or a rebuilt engine. Then I saw the writing on the windshield. Certainly a dealership wouldn't lie about something like this, right?Quote:

Indeed.
They are idiots for putting that on the window. And even bigger idiots for trying to sell it at that price with 149k on the chassis. Very misleading.
Yay! One day I'm going to cash in all of these internets :DQuote:
