What kind of car is that?
Since this is a 10 year old car it still has the shape of a new sports car today. I have a budget and wanted a car with a reasonable price. The headlights look like a jag and the doors have indentations like a viper. Since I'm a girl it's aggravating not having man hands to check under the hood. I don't drive it everyday but when I do it is puts myself in total bliss. I have hip and back problems but it rides so comfortable. Sometimes people stop me to comment how beautiful it is because there aren't very many in this area.

1998 3000GT SL Black/Tan
I've had this vehicle for over five years now. I bought it in late 99' and saved $12,000 from the original $36,500 retail price. It has just over 40,000 miles on it now. I have not yet had a single problem with this vehicle. I'm 6'2" / 190lbs. and I do fit in the car fine, but someone taller or over 250 pounds would likely not be comfortable. The back seat is pretty much useless unless you're driving around someone under the age of 8. The performance on the SL is decent overall. The handling is great, It's a little slow off of the line, but better than the average car out there. Stock it has 220 HP, but I recommend getting a filter intake performance kit to knock it up to 230-240HP for under $100. It looks great!!
3000GT Review
Transmission Problems
More fun AND more VERSATILE than a 'vette!!
I have a Caracas Red 1998 Mitsubishi 3000GT SL automatic in concours condition. People jump out of their cars at red lights to take pictures, and everywhere I take it, it is a source of attention and awe. I've owned multiple corvettes, Avanti's, a gull-wing Mercedes, a Bricklin, and even a Delorean....NONE of those are as pleasurable and versatile to drive as my 3000GT. A guy in a Mc Laren gave me a thumbs up at a red light the other day. To call it a head turner is an understatement.... Cars costing 50 to 70,000 more don't even begin to attract the same attention. I will NEVER sell it.
