Based on the 6th generation Minica chassis, the Dangan (Japanese for bullet) ZZ was Mitsubishi's answer to the Kei car hot hatch craze of the era. Also later offered as an all wheel drive version (Dangan ZZ-4) this example is the lighter fwd model. It was also the first production car to feature 5 valves per cylinder beating out Bugatti (EB110) & Ferrari (F355). While Kei laws allowed for 660cc engine size starting March of 1990, Mitsubishi continued to only offer the Dangan with the DOHC 550cc sized engine until September of that year. Video game fans would likely recognize the Dangan as it was featured in the Gran Turisimo series.
There are a few flaws in the paint and a small rust bubble over the back left wheel. Decals have wear and there is some discoloration on a few interior pieces. Aside from that, the car is an great original shape. Currently has 99,000 KM (61,000 miles) on the clock. Original "5 valve" floor mats and not modified (which is rare to find).
The car is an absolute blast to drive. It runs like a top, clutch is strong and transmission shifts perfectly. 9,000 rpm redline, tight go-kart like steering and weighing around 1450 lbs makes for a truly fun driving experience.
I legally imported the car from Japan earlier this year and I still currently registered in Rhode Island. These are a rare find even in Japan especially in such nice unmodified condition.
$6000 OBO maybe partial trade?
