rofl

/me picks booger and flings at their cars

 

uhh pointless thread ..

 

Honestly - who cares? So someone's trashing the car you drive. If you're happy driving it, it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks.

This thread sucks!

 

I tried to go with one today on the way home from work and he wouldn't ..hahhhhh Ya seriously who cares i hear those cars break down allllll the time. But awd ones can be beasts with some mods!

 

who the f*ck cares, every board is trashing other cars everywhere on the net.

 

You wanna see trashing? Just do a search on google and use the following keywords: mitsubishi + one of the following crap, service, ********, broken, warrany, sucks

You'll see trashing.

 

Bah, I could care less about what inferior car owners think.

 

threads like that (and this thread) are both pointless.

not that the 3000GT is a bad car, the VR4 is nice...

....but

i wouldnt want a car thats FWD / AWD, that is heavy, and not so pretty. i mean, out of all the cars in the 90s... Z32 300Z, MKIV Supra, RX7.. the 3000GT is the absolute UGLIEST of them all.

I'de take ANY of the above cars over a 3000GT.

what he said.

They're just mad because they're driving an unreliable mitsu. They need to direct their anger at other people, hehe.

 

VR4 was the only one worth anything. but I think the 3000GT had one of the most skewed amounts of good to bad; theres like 1000 VR4s in the country or something crazy.

 

its a lot more then 1000 but they are rare i will give you that. still... they might beat me in a straight line this week but what about next? =P

 

Hey! Watch it now. My Stealth TT (essentially a VR4) is still a great car after 12 years and 115k miles! It is my winter beater and the AWD goes great in the snow around here!

 

There were a ton more than 1000 vr-4's in the country. Granted they are nice cars for their day, but their 3800 lb curb weight is a little excessive for just 300hp on the 91-93 models and 320hp in the 94+ models. Not great for acceleration and really not great for handle. My friends VR-4 had so much understeer it was rediculous.

 

everyone needs to justify their purchase, i dont care what they own. so whatever. my car has 4 wheels

 

3000GTs are hated in Japan among car enthusiasts. It's too heavy and sluggish to be a real performer. My friend's VR-4 was pretty lame. Th at thing would push everywhere, and the steering felt very disconnected. And forget braking--that thing was heavy as heck, and fade was always an issue.

 

3000gts are horrible cars in my opinion. i've run against 2 and they are slow and heavy and just look fugly as hell.

 

OK guys, I am also a member of the 3si forum, and I must admit I am embarrassed at the lack of maturity a lot of the members there display. So let's remain above all that and keep the comments contructive.

People will always have their own opinion of a car, so we can agree to disagree. Some comments that were made here, however, are simply not objective. I have had my Stealth Twin Turbo (same exact car as the VR4) for 10 years, it has 128K miles, and it drives better today than it ever did. The car has been very reliable and is still running on pretty much all the original parts, except for wear parts of course (brake pads, 1 clutch, etc...)

I now take my Stealth to the track, and with my mods (see sig), it is much faster than my stock Z.

I will however agree with the fact that the Stealth/VR4 is a heavy car. Very fast in a straight line, handles beautifully on a race track, but is much less nimble than the Z. That is why I take my Z and not the Stealth to Autocross events. The Z feels much tighter and corners better than the Stealth.

Let's also not forget that the Stealth/VR4 was designed over 12 years ago. It's a car that was ahead of its time but is obviously showing some of its age.

Dr. Bonz, I am honored to find out we have the same combination of cars
