I saw at least 3 GSXs on DSMtuners classifieds that were bone stock. You may be interested in a slightly modded one, especially if it is still in good shape.

Maybe it's just up here in CT I can't find what I'm looking for then.

Low miles is needed to.. need something that will last a decent amount of time.

I have been.. but I don't like talons as much.. I know they are exactly the same it's just the cosmetic differences I don't like..

Wouldn't have enough money to make a conversion either.

It's not a lack of GSXs that's the problem.. I just have a certain set of standards.

It has to have a decent amount of miles (as in 80k or under, which I don't think is much to ask for of a 99)
5-speed tranny
Good body condition
stock (That way when I mod it I know exactly what's going on the car and am not working off of someone else's work)

Re: Hard to find GSX..

Have you tried www.autotrader.com
That's how I found my vr4...I had to drive 200 miles for it, so you might want to widen your search area as well.

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.

Yes I've looked on autotrader as well as cars.com..

I suppose it doesn't matter now as I won't be buying one until late in the summertime.. it just got me a little worried that I wasn't finding much.

Re: Hard to find GSX..

Also consider that most poeple arent going to sell an AWD car with winter coming up. First snowfall I'm aware of this year is today The beginning of the end...

Hmm that's true I didn't think of that.. usually people sell cars right before winter.. forgot that AWD would be beneficial.
