Best car I have ever owned.

I bought this car in 2004, from a retired farm couple, who needed a 2 door after wife broke her hip & wanted wider doors. It had 62,000 mi & I paid $2500. I drove it for work, year round, averaging 20,000 mi annually. It was a perfect size, very comfortable, powerful, & quite economical. Regular maintenence included oil change every 3000 mi, brakes & serpentine belts as needed, timing belt change @ 90,000,180,000,185.000, & 260,000 mi. Front axles & bearings @ 200,000 mi (after a slight rumble started on the rt side during turns). At around 200,000 mi, I noted slight blue smoke @ start up, but no unusual oil consumption. Worn valve seals are a known problem for the Mitsubishi 3.0 V6 with higher milage. I only had to have her towed once following a water pump bearing failure, which leaked coolant onto the timing belt, which shredded, @ highway speed. I had changed the water pump during the 2nd timing belt change, as a precaution. Fortunately, the 3.0 is a non interference engine so the valves were not damaged. Sadly, in the dead of winter of 2016, @ 288,000 mi, the car became increasingly hard to start when cold & began losing coolant with no visible external leak or coolant in the oil. A head gasket leak @ #1 cylinder, right against the firewall, was the culprit. A major job. As I no longer needed the car for work, I decided to sell. The body looked as good as the day I bought her & the interior showed very little wear. Heat & air were excellent & the ride remained smooth. Right up to the end, the transmission shifted smoothly & quickly. No slipping. Also, she pulled a trailer as though it wasn't there! I still miss this car & would buy another one without hesitation. She was worth every penny. The young man who bought her had the repair done & 4 yrars later, I still see her on the road from time to time.

Car is solid and heavy, so always felt safe even with the top down. Not that fast off the line, but it would cruise at highway + speeds with no problem. It was reliable, though changing spark plugs on the cylinder bank towards the firewall was a real challenge. Had to be careful putting anything in the boot, as it could crack the rear glass window when you put the top down. The car lasted until a big stretch limo crossed the road and t-boned me on the drivers side. Other than my airbags deploying, I was fine. That was a very sad day. Miss that car.

Good performance in general but it leaks and had it in twice for fixing but still leaks. Further, the main belt has given me many problems, broke once, came off once and squeeked until I had the belt stablizer replaced twice. I have 55,000 miles on the car a and had the front ball joints replaced. The back seat if cramped for additional passengers.
