1992 Mitsubishi 3000GT VR4 TT review from North America
"AMAZING! Possibly one of the best cars ever made"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
A little wear on the seats is all I could think of!
General comments?
Car is absolutely amazing!! She left me last week.. all I can really say is you don't know what you got until it's gone.
The car did everything soo perfect and precise, it was ridiculous. I truly think this car was built too good.
I heard all those rumours of how unreliable they were and such, but that was not the case at all! Obviously when you thrash around a turbo charged car.. you can't expect it to last more than 150-195k. Anyway.. it was between this or a skyline.. and since the GTO had so little kms on it.. I decided to buy it. The car was almost mint when I got it, ran amazing..
The bad: EVERYONE stares at you driving this car.. I live in Canada, so RHD is rare for 1.. and #2 this car just looks so goood! I had a front skirt on it to.. and just wow.. looks like a million dollars. So when you wanna just go to the store and not be bothered.. it's not gonna happen. EVERY time I went out.. not exaggerating this either. EVERY TIME! Someone would say WOW what a nice car, blah blah blah.. that's amazing soo nice.. people just drooled over this car!! And constantly stare at you in it. Haha it was nice.. but after awhile it got very annoying.
I must have hit the curb like 8 times in this car.. and no problems at all.
In, conclusion the car is just insane bargain for your money.. it may not be as fast as a Skyline.. but it's very close, you couldn't even tell the difference.. and maybe handles a little under a Skyline.. but it looks sooo much better!!
The car beat everything I raced it against! You name it.. I beat it. The car can take corners like nothing.. It took me a long time to get this car unstuck on the road.. and even when you do it.. it comes right back to ya like nothing happened at all. 10 out of 10 for this beauty..
I could go on for days talking about how good this car is, but I won't. Just go try one for yourself.. you won't be disappointed! But make sure you have money in case something does go wrong! Maybe I was just lucky! ;)
