Verve, funny you mentioned about the 3000GT VR-4. I owned a 94 model VR4 ... hot to trot but damned expensive to maintain. I always compare it to a hot assed girl ... great to look at but you'll go broke keeping her happy.

The VR-4 was alot of fun when it was working, but the damned thing broke down every other month. Repairs were a nightmare. Fugget about gas mileage. I was paying $36 per fillup twice a week.

But two years ago, I walked out of my apartment and the car was gone. Jacked and sacked!!! I only had liability insurance so I had to eat the loss.

I learned two things ... don't buy Mitsubishi and don't buy a car solely for it's looks. Unfortunately, I still date women for their looks ... gets my *** in trouble every time!!!

I got three words for you kid.

West Coast Customs.


They'll make your dreams come true.

dude, im so sorry to hear that about your 3000. they are beautiful cars, but the maintenance was another reason i abandoned that dream. on the 3/Si forums i always saw people talking about having to replace their tranny's and what not.

Thanks lex400sc. I have been thinking why people have twin turbocharged the SC 300 and not the SC 400. I saw a picture from Swift Racing's website and I see that there just wouldn't be room. Thanks for replying.

I can't buy yet I'm only 15 years old. Maybe I will look in New York for my SC 400 when I'm ready for it though.

dont give up on ebay. i found my sc400 there from florida, had it checked out by a motorsports place there and when it finally arrived i was amazed at the condition it was in. i saved $6,000+ off the blue book retail price (of course shipping ate up $750 of those savings) but still a great deal
