RARE!!!!!! 1991 Galant VR-4 (limited edition number 923 out of 2000) AWD, 4G36T
Name: citymunky
Location: Chesapeake, VA
Means of contact: PM
Price: $ 3500
Description:
I hate doing this but I have no choice but to sell my GVR4 . In short getting married was a bad idea.
Some background Info about Galant VR-4's
"The Mitsubishi Galant VR-4 was a limited edition automobile with 3009 imported from Japan to the United States with the chassis code E39A. The VR-4 hit the streets with numbered badges of 2000 in 1991 and 1000 in 1992. The mystery 9 were probably never sold or numbered. Another surprise is that the limited edition badge number has no correlation to the order of manufacture in a particular year.
The VR-4 ("Viscous Realtime 4") refers to the all wheel steering, an ability it shares with the more recognizeable 3000GT VR-4, along with all-wheel drive and turbocharged and intercooled induction. However, one thing the Galant VR-4 doesn't share is its conservative, 4-door sedan appearance. It's a sleeper. A wolf in sheep's clothing? No... It's a rabid werewolf with a powerplant capable of 600+ hp and 9.51s @ 148.87mph quarter mile runs... and it's not just fast on the drag strip, it's quite at home through the twisties and has even won a few World Rally Championship and Asia Pacific Rally Championship races.
New: The Galant VR-4 is likely the first 4-door sedan and definitely the first 2.0-liter production class sedan to break the 200mph barrier"

Dont let getting married stop you. If you cant even have this car because of it imagine what else will be taken. Also this is a great deal and this car wont last long at all so somebody better jump on it before its too late.
I dont think estimated "bench racing" numbers will really matter.
