1995 Mitsubishi 3000GT User Reviews

Made For Two To Go. — We just bought this car in Apr of 2010 with 103k miles. There have been a couple rattles and electrical let downs, but then considering the age of the car and the fact that it's been in storage for almost 10 years I am more than willing to work those out in the garage. Other than that the car is just plain fun to drive. It feels a bit heavy at low speed and aroud town but comes to life at high speed, corners hard, and brakes well remembering this is a '95. The gas mileage has been a huge surprise on the highway. It's not far off my commuter...if you can find a way to keep your foot out of it. The biggest problem I find on the highway is keeping it even close to the speed limit because it drives so well. The car is very comfortable. My wife and I drove from Boston, MA to VA pretty much none stop (a 435+ mile trip). When we reached VA 50+ miles south of DC we felt quite ready to keep going. The car has Sikkens flip flop paint so it is quite a head turner with those great lines. We can't wait to continue upgrading the interior and sound system. When my wife passes me (with ease) on the highway she looks like she's in a far more expensive low slung and wide sport car. The dash has a lot of plastics and the interior is just a bit dated if not funtional. The good news is that the base has fewer gee wiz things to go wrong. The only repair since we bought it has been the master cylinder. Otherwise it's just been gas and oil. It is my wife's weekend/sunny day car so we only put about 2.5k miles on it over the last year.

Amazing Technology And Always Looks Good — Mitsubishi put a ton of engineering into the 3000GT and it peaked in 1995 with the 3000GT VR-4 Spyder, all all-wheel-drive, twin turbo, 6-speed, 4 wheel steer, and steel retractable hardtop. Amazing today as it was then. Ony 714 units sold in 2 years of the convertible option. Very rare and soon, very collectible.

Spyder In A Nutshell. — Awesome play toy, your not hauling more than 2 people and day bags. the back seat should have been eliminated. If you want something easy to work on look else where. All that said i wouldnt trade for anything else.

Great Driver — This was my first corvette. I love the C5 but really liked the old C3's. I now have four of the old C3's and would like to buy more. Only bad thing is that the C5 has the safety equipment. The C3''s are void of any safety equipment except seat belts.

Primary Use: Family transportation

Great Looking, Fast, Awd Sports Car With 6 Speed Manual Transmission — Owned this car for 11 years and it has been great. Excelent in all weather, if you equip it appropriately with the right tires (summer Y rated tires for spring, summer and fall) and winter studless tires for winter. 0-60 in 4.8 sec after you add a boost controller. 1/4 mile in 12.9 sec at 110 mph. Fuel mileage is 25 mpg on the highway cruising at 75 mph, however, driving faster on the highway and having some city traffic will decrease your mpg.

Primary Use: Commuting to work
