Previous car...a sports car
I owned a '92 Mitsubishi 3000 GTSL from new until I sold it to buy my '03 CL-S 6 speed. It was a fabulous car, much more exotic than the CL in its styling inside and out, and its ruide and handling. It also had exclusive features such as power lumbar and thigh support on the driver's seat, adjustable suspension, and even fog lights. It was a real head turner in pearlescent white. It was as economical on gas as the Acura, and it was a sports car besides...low, responsive, louder. It also had front wheel drive for excellent all weather use. However, at 129,000 miles it was getting a little tired for my 92 mile daily drive. the Acura is more comfortable, quieter, has a sunroof, and is a little bit faster, but I really miss the excitement and uniqueness of that 3000GTSL.

I’ve got pictures around somewhere to scan, but they’re not handy right now.

I bought this car NEW when I was 18 with no help from mommy & daddy.
I paid for it myself.

My Milano was silver series car 2.5 litre i think 160 HP car.Yes it had the funky De Dion rear suspension transaxle (clutch in the trunk ) .It was when it was running right a fantastic car with second to none road manners.The engine was a delight and did not need some expensive exhaust to make it sound right.It was perfect out of the box.If you could accept it's flaws and off the wall ergonomics like the power window switches that were on the overhead console it was a great machine,truly unique.Jens
