The car is actually very clean, the pics just dont show it for whatever reason. I am going to drag it pretty soon and I am assuming low to mid 13's as its mostlu stock.

Ive heard countless things about 3000GT's being unreliable. And ive heard the parts are expensive to replace. And then of course it being a mitsubishi just makes it worse.
Id never buy a mitsubishi not to mention a 3000gt. Im just saying i am in shock u downgraded from a gorgeous LS1 T/A to a VR4...Usually most people would upgrade the other way around.
Yeah it also must suck your previous car would smoke the one you currently have and look good doing it

Ignorance is bliss. If you knew what you were talking about, the vr4 is AS FAST as my trans am was.
Just FYI, stop going by what you hear ( especially from your high school buddies_ , and research things yourself.
