1991 Mitsubishi 3000GT VR-4 Description

I have an extremely rare and extremely powerful 3000GT VR-4 Sports Car for sale. I love this car, but have to sell to pay off another vehicle. They was approximately 15,000 VR-4's ever made in Nagoya, Japan. Three thousand were made in 1991 and 26 cars that exactly match this one ever made. This car has absolutely everything and was way beyond it's time. All-wheel drive, all-wheel steering, twin turbos, electronic-controlled suspension, active aero, so on... The 3000gt even has a switch button for the tune-ableexhaust. 0-60mph in 5 seconds stock, and this car definitely isn't. Higher mileage at 189k, but just like its age, it doesn't show.
The exterior is in great shape for it's age. Passion fire red with normal chips, small scratches, etc. No bad sun fading and you would never guess it's age off of the exterior overall. There is some chrome peeling on a couple of the wheels, one definitely worse than the other. Two of the wheels don't have any. The back windshield wiper/arm was pulled off but included. The headlights stay up permanently, (they don't retract/drop when you shut the car off).Tires have plenty of tread left in them. The rear wing is the SL model one, not the active aero version.
The interior is very clean for the age. Aftermarket leather style racing seats on corbeau brackets with manual sliders on both sides. Black Corbeau 4-point harnesses with quick and easy buckles. There is also a NRG steering wheel installed, (comes with factory steering wheel with cruise switches). No check engine or other trouble lights! 3 Autometer gauges installed in A-Pillar; Pyrometer, Boost Gauge, and Oil Pressure gauge. AEM Wideband Air/Fuel Ratio gauge front and center on steering column. Custom harness bar/rear strut brace with back seat removed. Kenwood aftermarket CD Player and aftermarket speakers. Short throw shifter with metal ball shift knob, plus long stock shifter with leather shift knob. GReddy boost controller, Apexi Air/Fuel Controller and even a Blitz Lap Timer with other handy functions. Cup holder insert is in the arm console! Cigarette lighter is pushed in center console for some reason, but still there and wired up. Power windows and power locks work perfectly. Rear hatch struts still strong. Menthol boost additive in the way back. Newer black carpet covering the entire floor. Door locks turn hard so I haven't used them.
Mechanically, this thing is an absolute joy. I've actually taken it on trips around theMidwestand wouldn'thesitateto do so tomorrow. Clutch, steering, braking, everything feels/works great. Newer valve covers with no leaks. Aftermarket everything under the hood. Piping, clamps, hoses, air intake, spark plug wires, on and on. Everything went through.The motor was replaced with one from a 1992 VR-4. The car comes with aGetrag-manufactured 5-speed manual transmission with aftermarket clutch, (firmer but not too tough). Big aftermarket exhaust that doesn't sound like a ricer, (surprisingly not all that loud). Gone through by 2 different mechanics. I did not build the car, so if you have any specific questions, please let me know.
I have the clean title in hand.I also have a copy of the carfax report on hand, message me for details.The car had always been garaged and not driven in the winter. It needs nothing but someone to drive it. I am asking below book at $6500, but am open to offers. With a little cleaning up, its insane what VR-4's sell for. Any questions or offers please reach me through here. If you're in the area, you are more welcome to look and test drive it. The car is also listed locally for sale. Buyer is responsible for pickup, but I can help accommodate.Deposit required, because unfortunately a fewpeoplelike to waste time.Selling because I switched jobs and took a significant pay cut. Thank you your time.
