1991 Mitsubishi 3000GT VR4
anyone own one/driven one/have any comments?
i have been toying with the idea of buying and import, and this car is pretty sexy looking. big engine, 2 door, sleek design. would consider throwing some money at it and getting some performance accessories/cosmetic changes (i.e body kits). but i'm just curious as to what you guys think of this car. |

| Wouldn't it make more sense to buy a car that isn't 14 years old? |

| EDIT: i've heard about problems with the timing belt. and broken valves are a bitch to fix, but i'm just wondering how BIG of a problem/glitch the 3000gt has with the belt? |

| You know what is a bad car? 1991 Celica All-Trac Turbo! Maybe not as fast as the 3000gt I don't think but, I think I would take it over the Mitsu. |

I like the 3000GT. My friends has a slightly newer one and he says he has had no problem with the timing belt other than the ocassional tweek. Hes had the car for about 8 years. |
