"Only car in the world with retractable hardtop all wheel drive, all wheel steering and twin turbos"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

There have been no problems. The prior owner took excellent care of the car and had it serviced regularly.

General comments?

The acceleration is fantastic.

The car handles like it is on rails

The retractable hardtop is a show stopper

The paint is new looking and glossy

No one can believe the car is not new

The interior is cockpit like

The seats fit very well and the power side bolsters are a nice touch

The climate control works perfectly

The rear seat is for show only

The infinity sound system is excellent even with the top down

The gas mileage averages 20 miles per gallon

The styling is timeless on the car.

With regard to the above comments, a cobra isn't exactly in the same league as a vr-4, or rather a vr-4 is not in the same league as a cobra. The comparison makes little sense because the cars are nothing alike. In terms of design ingenuity I believe the vr-4 does win over the mustang though, because it not only closes the horsepower gap with a turbo, but also mitigates the turbo's primary weakness, lag, with a twin turbo. Mitsubishi packed quite a few nifty gadgets into the 3000GT, especially the vr-4 and it is my personal opinion that all of these features allow a V6 like 3000GT VR-4 to not only give a mustang V8 a run for its money, but beat it. In the same way that the GSX is so impressive with its powerful combination of turbo and 4 wheel drive, the VR-4 is formidable machine. In all honesty, I personally think a better rival for this car is the supra, assuming both are unmodified mind you.

Its hard to say if a cobra would be the vr-4. honestly it isn't all about the horsepower, torque is really what makes the car take off.

This is an amazing car I got it a year ago and i never want to get rid of it. It handles like a dream. I will never get rid of this car even if it dies on me and becomes no use to me anymore i will still keep it. It is such an amazing car!
