    As a Canadian who sees rusty cars all the time, I can tell you this car was actually not that horrible, it obviously had a few bad areas, but honestly, I would be willing to bet whoever owned it was simply using it as a every day car especially in the winter in a location that sees road salt, would've been very repairable before the crash, and the crash in general, you can see how the car crumpled up like it was supposed to, had it been extremely rusty it would've just mushed and the back seats would've been under the hood.

    On speaking about classic significant Mitsubishi and you didn't even mention the Eclipse, Galant, along with the 3000 GT and Evo. Honestly a clean white manual transmission 95-99 Eclipse GSX hard top in white with black interior making 550-700awhp and/or a hard top with no sunroof, manual Evo VIII or Evo IX in grey, blue, or white with CNC head, cams, turbo manifold, turbo, FMIC, downpipe, exhaust, built transfer case and transmission in both, flywheel and clutch, full rebuilt and upgraded brakes and suspension, lightweight 18x9.5 or 10" wheels and 265 or 275 tires. Either one making in the 550-700whp on E85 with suspension, brakes, body, wheels, weight pulled, and some interior upgrades would make for an extremely fast, comfortable, and awesome street/strip coupe or sedan to haul a 2 kids and wife in the Evo then strip the ESX down more and have a more purpose built coupe that's more strip but a little street. Both should easily run 9s depending on the traction and driver's testicular fortitude aka the driver not being a female reproductive gland and leaving on the 2 step ans side stepping the clutch on a prepped surface and super sticky tires. I can't wait to see Legit Street Cars finish the GSX he bought, because the 4G63 is a badass motor.

The features on the VR-4 were amazing with the active aero and all wheel steering but she was a big girl. The EVO is a more iconic car thanks to Fast and Furious but i prefer my EVO honestly of the two because the overall comfort and four doors.
