I read the news reports too and I know what it smells like. Nobody buys their bland cars anymore. The Evo now looks bland and boring too, they took it's signature look and flushed it. It's nearly impossible for Mitsubishi to top this now.

3800 lbs 3000GT I have was the only good car they made. It was even better than R32 skyline. Like I said, they have become Mr.***** for a while now.

The Econo-Box of that evo is not nearly 1% of what the 3000GT look like.

Finally, let me clarify this, a 3000GT is different than a VR4. They are totally different Vehicle, different engine, transmission, drive train wise.

I do agree on a point that 3000GT is shitty, but the VR4 isn't

Back when I had 3,000$ to my name a 3000GT was my dream car, for looks alone. But I was looking at shit like Chrysler lebaron that I could afford.

Look where I am now rofl, not much better but at least it handles well and looks 1000x better hah

This is a joke right?

Sorry but still no comparison. Better than the R32? The GTR? Cool story

A VR4 IS a 3000GT just with the top of the line options At least top of the line for the 90's. And better than a Skyline? This is getting funnier by the minute. Yeah the Skyline is so inferior to the VR4 that it weighed 400 lbs lighter and still has some of the finest tech to date even after being out of production for 15+ years.....

One track proof of how gtr was rolfstomped by vr4.

Oh, and how did you own r32 here in the states ? Talk about troll.

Btw, how much do you know about VR4 ? None. You dont even have one, or used to
@Brzetto.....Yeah the Skyline is so inferior to the VR4 that it weighed 400 lbs lighter and still has some of the finest tech to date even after being out of production for 15+ years.

And how long had vr4 out of production ? You dont even have a clue of what technology vr4 have, please dont embarrass yourself

And yet another proof at 1/4 mile

R32s are easy as hell to get here in the states. I could go on ebay or zilvia.net right now and find one for sale. "You're embarassing yourself"

As an all around platform, the GTR is superior.
