MITSUBISHI GTO

The styling and overall aesthetic design is wonderful. Why wouldn't you own one though? I actually had no idea this car even existed until I found myself window shopping on Carsales. Saw one in real life a few weeks ago and am amazed at how aggressive they look in real life. Why wouldn't you own one?

>weighed almost two tons in 1997
>turbo was the only version worth caring about unless you wanted to move 2 tons with 140 HP
>shitty electrics
>shitty build quality from a country that had already established its reputation for reliability

Issues, many issues cunt
If you're not a patient mechanic, buy a commie instead.

they're unreliable as fuck

...

Good solid reliable car just don't buy one from a retard mcdonalds employee and expect to keep up with maintenance with your mcdonalds pay checks

The 3000GT was pretty much a fucking monster. Specially the MR variant. Americlaps cant say it's true because they got the comfy heavier version and not the performance version.

Still the racing variant mighty spec v couldnt handle against it.

But then again... 90% of the board is full of cucks that think the 3000GT is a DSM and FWD biased because that's how much they care to know about cars.

Even the US spec 3000GT FWD base model (1994-1996) is a 222hp 1300kg car.

The unreliability of this car is a meme. If you get a mk1 GTO for $500 don't call it unreliable if it takes a shit on you.

There are anons here with GTOs they don't bitch about unreliability, they tell you to keep records of the maintenance and do it accordingly.

I saw a twin turbo lhd model here in canada for 4k. Almost jumped on it for a winter beater but someone snatched it up fast.

Had 120k no rust.

Clarkson reviewed the GTO and loved it.

It's a fantastic car. It achieved so much and Mitsubishi didn't even try hard to make it better, they were more focused with the Evo. And they ended up with a great car.

Yes, the GTR is a track monster, but the GTO was decent at the track but on the straight line, it was simply a fucking monster.

I would get a TT and restore it. They are guaranteed to gain value with time.
