Re: quick ?

Yeah, the Stealth's production was stopped after 96, I think Mitsu saw that the SOHC Stealths were selling and decided to try taking over that market...as the SL and base were pretty much the same. So they 'downgraded' the base in 97 to an SOHC, so the base model was even more of a 'base' and had greater variance from the SL. Just my suspisions.

Your 1996 Mitsubishi 3000GT VR-4 is the 92nd out of the 315 that were made that year. Only 21 of which are exactly identical.
