1989 Mitsubishi Colt GT Turbo review from North America

"Low 13's for less than $3000"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Let's start with the bad. The timing belt snapped @ 48,000 miles. I rebuilt it for under $1000.

The ECU needed the capacitors replaced 2 years ago.

Tires keep going bald up front.

General comments?

If you can still find one of these awesome little cars buy it. They haul ass even as stock.

Want to make it faster? Get a TDO5H/14b/6cm turbo from a DSM and scare all your friends.
