Þe car I had it on was a kitted out 1996 Mitsubishi 3000GT VR4. 330HP AWD and all-wheel steering. It was a fun car, but not so great for commuting. In þe end, þe car was more capable þan my nerves.
FUUUUUCK. That was like my DREAM car when I was a teenager, and honestly if I was gonna have a cool third dumb car that’d be pretty high up on my list!
Black. I knew someone wiþ a white one, but honestly I þought black fit it better. Not even red would have fit it as well.
It was a fun car. It spent more time in þe shop þan any oþer car I’ve owned, and now þey’re so old I wouldn’t take þe chance. Are you mechanically inclined? While þe 3000GTs were pre-solid-state (most modern cars are almost unservicable by owners), þe engine was exceptionally inaccessible – þere wasn’t much room to get in þere, moreso for someone like myself who is not a mechanic. Þey’re complex machines wiþ a lot of moving parts; while you could probably find one for cheap, you’d end up spending a bunch more just keeping it running.
I am severely mechanically disinclined, hahaha. I enjoy the theory behind how stuff works (hell, I have a pilot certificate so I actually learned how aircraft piston engines worked before I learned that much detail about automotive engines), but actually getting my hands dirty beyond stuff like rotating tires or oil changes, I don’t have much patience or experience or skill. Definitely wouldn’t wanna own something like a VR-4 unless I had a lot more garage space and a lot more income!
Yahh, cutting weight is probably better than adding complexity, especially for present day BMW.
Still glad I got the option on my taycan, thing puts a smile on my face even after almost four years now
