I am the second owner of this eclipse and have had plenty of fun with it. It is currently sitting around because I am not around to drive it. When I bought it in 2007, it had a dent in the passenger side fender, door, and hood. There was a massive amount of rust under the rear deck lid. Once I had time, I tore the thing apart, and replaced the hood, fender, and hatch. I took the third brake light out of a gs wing and fabbed it into the gst wing. Then I gave it a new paint job with white and orange pearl mixed over a bright white base coat. Once I decided on colors, I had pin stripes painted on as well as the cars name, "evil" painted on the bumper. At that time, I also replaced the rear hub assemblies and all the brakes. Now both of the fenders are a bit dinged up, after a few years dealing with city parking, and the windshield has a nice crack. There is also a bit of rust under the hood and a small spot by the gas refill. The tranny needs some work, but I have been driving it for almost 4 years with no 4th gear. It has worked for me and if I were to keep it, it would be my next project.
I have recently replaced the headlights with aftermarket halo lights. The turbo was rebuilt in Summer of 2011. The water pump and timing belt were replaced this past November. This car also comes with 18" Antera 3 piece rims with summer tires. 2 tires probably only have 1 summer left on them, but the other 2 have some good life left. The stock rims are currently mounted with winter tires on them. When I got the car there was already a GReddy blow off valve, Apexi turbo timer, cold air intake, nology plug wires, and a 3" magnaflow exhaust. The 3 aftermarket guages down the A pilar are the boost guage, air/fuel ratio, and oil pres. guage. Wires from subs I used to have are still ran to the trunk, they just need to be reconnected. The head unit installed is Alpine.
With the new water pump, timing belt, and rebuilt turbo, this car is ready to keep going. Like any 15 year old car, it takes some attention and fixes every once in a while. Anyone who has owned one understands. It's a fun and quick car and it is definitely hard for me to let it go.
Winning bidder is responsible for pickup or lining up shipping. Full payment is required at the time of pickup in cash is preferred. I obtain the right to end this sale at any time I see fit. Thanks for looking.

I wanted to to post an update with a couple things I have thought of concerning the condition of the car. The driver side door has some damage(body work) that's not very noticeable and still opens fine. A clip on the passenger side door handle has broken off, so the handle is loose, but stays on the car and still works. The hatch "shocks" probably need replaced soon as they don't always hold up the hatch. The sunroof rattles when it is open and you go over bumps. All it needs is tightening, but I forgot to do so before I left. The upholstry for the inside cover for the sunroof is starting to come off. There are "racing" seatbelts installed, but still have stock belts. The passenger side racing belts' clip is broken. The driverside seat has a tear in it. I'm not sure you can see it in the pics. A couple of the summer wheels that come with the car have a few spots where they hit a curb, but the chrome rim can be replaced since they are a 3 piece rim. That is all I can think of. I want to be as honest as possible, so please, if you have any questions, let me know. Thanks

Mitsubishi ASX is French for Outlander Sport
Fri, 28 Sep 2012Mitsubishi has revealed the Euro-version of the same Outlander Sport model that debuted with updates earlier this year at the New York Auto Show. No, the French do not call it the Royale Sport (with cheese), but rather the ASX.
The crossover has received a range of aesthetic and engineering tweaks, including revised interior fabrics. Designers have also abandoned the old rotary knob switch for the vehicle's all-wheel-control system in favor of a pushbutton interface, though the largest change to the recipe comes in the form of a reworked multi-link rear suspension. Powertrain options remain unchanged, however, with a total of three engine mills on deck, including a 1.6-liter gasoline engine with 115 horsepower mated to a five-speed manual transmission in two-wheel drive configuration.
Those hunting up a little more traction can step up to a 1.8-liter diesel with 147 horsepower and 221 pound-feet of torque paired with a six-speed manual and the buyer's choice of either a two-wheel-drive or four-wheel-drive system. A low-CO2 1.8 diesel is also available with 114 horsepower. You can check out the full press release below for more information.
Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution will live through 2015
Thu, 29 May 2014If it were only so easy for humans. Mitsubishi has extended the life of the Lancer Evolution X by at least a year. An MMNA spokesperson tells AutoGuide that it is "committed to introducing the 2015 model year Lancer Evolution," noting that production for said models will begin in July. This gives us a year of clarity about the future of a model whose future blinks in and out of existence quicker than a boson particle.
As far as we can tell, the Evo as we know it is definitely going to die, the question is when. In March, Mitsubishi said it "does not have any plans to design a successor with the current concept, as a high-performance four-wheel drive gasoline-powered sedan." What is rumored to fill the hole left by the Evo might or might not be a linear descendent, but is expected to be some kind of hybridized high-performance model about which much has been speculated.
MMNA PR manager Alex Fedorak told Autoblog, "Mitsubishi Motors North America, Inc. (MMNA) is committed to introducing the 2015 model year Lancer Evolution in the U.S. Production of North American-specification Lancer Evolution models for the 2015 model year will commence in July 2014." Our previous advice still stands, however, even with the extension: If you want one, get an Evo while you can.
Mitsubishi recalling 2011 Outlander Sport over panoramic roofs that may fly off
Tue, 02 Jul 2013The panoramic roof offered on the 2011 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport is a great way to make the cabin feel more open, but some owners of the compact CUV could get a little more openness than they bargained for. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration announced a recall for Outlander Sport models built between August 2010 and March 2011 due to the possibility that the panoramic roof could fly off.
On about 3,200 Outlander Sport models in the US and Puerto Rico, a potentially improper installation process could have resulted in a lack of adhesive primer between the glass and the roof, which could allow the glass to detach from the vehicle and become dangerous debris on the road. Fortunately, it sounds like there have only been two instances of detached roofs, and neither was in the US. As a fix, Mitsubishi dealers will check to make sure the primer was used, and if not, the glass will be reinstalled following the proper procedure. Scroll down for the official NHTSA recall notice.
