1997 Mitsubishi - Pajero

Description del vehiculo

1997 Mitsubishi Pajero Evolution, finished in Satellite Silver with a black interior. This is a right-hand-drive, Japanese-spec SUV and equipped with the rare 5-speed manual transmission. Reportedly imported from Japan in 2022, it's equipped with a metric instrument cluster and its odometer displays approximately 209,000 kilometers, which represents about 129,900 miles.Factory equipment includes 16-inch wheels, an Evolution-specific suspension system, skid plates, an Evolution-specific body kit, Recaro front sport seats, a gauge cluster on the dashboard, and air conditioning. Modifications reported by the seller include an aftermarket "EVOLUTION" sticker on the front bumper, a Nardi steering wheel, and a Pioneer Carrozzeria touchscreen.Launched globally in 1991, the second-generation Mitsubishi Pajero (called Montero in America) received a streamlined exterior design and a more refined interior in a bid to challenge the Toyota Land Cruiser and the Nissan Patrol. Short- and long-wheelbase versions of the Pajero were sold until 1999.Mitsubishi released the Evolution model in 1997 to homologate the Pajero in the Dakar Rally. Starting with the short-wheelbase model, the company added a full body kit characterized by wheel arch flares, an all-around independent suspension system, a quicker steering system, and a more powerful engine, among other rally-inspired changes. Its efforts paid off: the Pajero took first, second, third, and fourth in the 1998 Dakar. Most historians agree that approximately 2,500 street-legal Evolution models were built (most were sold on the Japanese market) and that around 500 of those were equipped with a manual transmission.Power comes from a 3.5-liter V6, rated at about 276 horsepower and 257 lb-ft of torque. Called "6G74" internally, it spins the rear or the four wheels via a 5-speed manual transmission and a 2-speed transfer case.
