Somebody wiser than me once said: The odometer on this car is like the birth year of my last girlfriend…I know it was pushed back, but I just don’t know how far. Today’s next car probably isn’t the victim of odometer fraud, but it sure looks nice for a 25 year old Mitsubishi. Find this […]
The Mitsubishi 3000GT VR4 was a 4-wheel-drive supercoupe that (when new) competed with the likes of Toyota’s Supra, Porsche’s 911 993, and Acura NSX. It was a triumph of technology over temerity in 1994, but 20 years later the Supra/911/NSX have appreciated into the climate controlled garages of the elite, while the 3000GTs are still […]
Hope all readers are enjoying your Sunday — perhaps a lazy afternoon in the garage, or a day jam packed full of sitting on the couch and preparing for Monday. Whatever you do, I hope it involves a few minutes of staring at this nicely preserved piece of classic Japanese rolling art. Find this 1992 […]

The Mitsubishi 3000 GT VR-4 was Mitsubishi’s entry into the free-for-all cage match that was the 1990s Japanese sports car scene. Nissan had its turbocharged 300ZX and Skyline GT-R, Honda the superb NSX, Mazda the rotary screaming RX-7, Subaru sold a few funky SVX and even Toyota got in the ring with the bulletproof Supra, […]
Last week we discussed the Nissan 300ZX TT market and asked why the NSX, Supra & Porsche 993 have appreciated in the last two decades, but the 300ZX has languished in sub 2-year-old Kia territory. The big car missing from our discussion was the Mitsubishi 3000 GT VR-4, another high-tech, high-power and high-complexity Japanese sports […]
The Mitsubishi 3000GT VR-4 was the pinnacle of Japanese sportscar madness back in the mid 1990s. It had room for four, a twin turbocharged V6 up front, power going to all four wheels, active rear-wheel steering, active aerodynamics and a profile wider than Kim Kardashian in Hammer pants. When new, the 3000GT VR4 came with […]
