Doesn’t get much more rare than this. If I had a place to keep it (this needs to be indoors) and didn’t already have an old car to chase my wallet, I’d be into this, I like the style. Too bad it isn’t a sporty variant, but as these are virtually extinct, beggars can’t be choosers. Nice price, too. Maybe the link won’t get kinja’d:

Love those Volare-like wheelcovers ... and imagine hunting for parts. This is the Plymouth variant, I think, and Mitsubishi had one with another badge that I can’t quite recall ....

Looks like the link was temporarily kinja’d:

These were Plymouth Sapporo/Dodge Challenger/Mitsubishi Galant, but I think the latter wasn’t sold in NA.

Trim pieces have to be unobtanium.

If my Lincoln had sold, I would be on a plane to SeaTac right now to drive that home.

Wow! I genuinely had no idea what that was from the picture. I dig the interior.

A while back I reviewed the striking Tomica casting of the Mitsu variant of this car:

Saw the link up front - no problems.

I bet the 1:1 is a lot rarer these days than the Tomica version.

Definitely, and the Tomica isn’t exactly common. It’s been eons since I have seen one of these on the road.

Weird, it vanished for me, temporarily I guess.

Unbelievable, I don’t even remember the last time I saw one of those. That would probably kill at JCCS.
