Hi Guys, new to the forum.
Just bought a KJ2 Xi Verada with the lettering "MVP" under the Xi badge on the bootlid, as pictured.

Just wondering if this was stock or an aftermarket mod?
The dealer reckoned MVP stands for Mitsubishi Vehicle Performance which is supposedly the HSV or FPV Mitsu equivalent.
The only other differences I can make out on it when I purchased were the legit AWD stickers on the door (which the car of course ISN'T), some plastic chrome effect trims on the door edges and the minor racing lines on the hood, as pictured:

Personally, I'm doubting whether there ever was such a thing as 'MVP' because the car wouldn't have left the factory with AWD stickers on the side so maybe the person who owned previously was a bit of a poser and put that lettering on themselves.
