1999 Mitsuishi 3000 GT... Stealth... VR4...
It's a double page guys...
If you want to read the text, have patience please.
The following sections are from... http://www.cjbyron.com/3000gttt.htm
The Mitsubishi VR-4 is 320HP (stock), All-Wheel Drive,
Twin Turbo, All-Wheel Steering, top speed of 180 mph.
The 3000GT ended production in 1999. It seems that Mitsubishi was just not making
enough money due to the elaborate design and production costs.
This has happened to many high end production sports cars over the years.
3000GT: Base model, no extras! Approximate cost $28,000
3000GT SL: This gave you some spoiler features, leather interior, etc.
The middle line of 3000GTs. Approximate cost $35,000
3000GT VR-4: Top model - all wheel drive, all wheel steering, twin-turbo, 18" wheels,
6 speed manual transmission, etc. etc. Approximate cost $50,000.
3000GT VR-4 Spyder: A limited production vehicle
it's a VR-4 with a retractable hardtop. Approximate cost $70,000.
Example of how the 3000 VR4 twin turbo works
The VR-4 has many features that make it a top production vehicle.
It is highly computerized and comes factory with 320 HP.
There are 4 stages of modifications with the final stage making power in the ~750 HP range.
Don't blink but it costs... (estimated 1-4 stage cost is $28,000 additional) _________________ Walk softly... and carry a BIG stick! |
