Vehicle Description The Mitsubishi GTO is a front-engine, all-wheel/front-wheel drive 2+2 hatchback sports coupe and Grand Touring car manufactured and marketed by Japanese automobile manufacturer Mitsubishi for 1990-1999 model years, across a single generation with one facelift.
Manufactured in Nagoya, Japan, the four passenger coupes were marketed in the Japanese domestic market (JDM) as the GTO and globally as Mitsubishi 3000GT.
The Dodge Stealth - a badge engineered, mechanically identical captive import - was sold for model years 1991-1996 along with the 1991-1999 Mitsubishi 3000GT in North America.
As a collaborative effort between Chrysler and Mitsubishi Motors, Chrysler was responsible for the Stealth's exterior styling.
