1992 Mitsubishi 3000GT SL review from North America
"Beautiful car with great performance, I WANT ANOTHER!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I had to put a new clutch in because I was a new drive and it had 120,000. It cost about $800... not cheap!
The master cylinder on the clutch was leaking, leaked into the car and made a mess, but oh well. I replaced it myself, had to make a "special tool" wink wink, but the part was only like $70.
The seats were leather, and it was 10 years old so they were tearing. That's expected.
Power antenna was broken when I got it.
And the most major thing was that the engine was missing on a cylinder.. which killed performance. It would have cost a lot to fix, but I bought the $200 valve tool and fixed it myself.
Fast car that looks good, but it is expensive to fix and modify.
General comments?
I love that car... it was my baby. It was also a rocket and all of the girls loved it, but I had to get a truck. I thought about crying when I sold it, but then I decided to get another one when I had the money to fix it up and get some real good speed.
