Hello all.....

Well it's been two weeks now and I have to say I am very happy with my new toy a May built 2005 GTVi AWD Verada........Had 24400km when I got it and now has just under 27000km's......Driving it back from QLD to Melb accounts for most of that......

A lot different than my old XF and a lot nicer than the wifes TR SE wagon that needs to find a new home now.....

Just wondering how many of these things were made??

Not that I am worried about collectors thing as this car will be enjoyed as it was meant to every chance I get.......

Also does anyone know where I can get tailor made floor mats in Black other than Mitsubishi.....as Super cheap only does them in grey for $60.....

Try AutoBarn, custom fit front and rear, and they have mitsu logos

Yeah had the same problem with mats for my TJ sports, ended up doing what vrex suggested BUT you'll find that the ones from autobarn (classic) arent exactly as black as the factory carpet, still look okay though, rear mat is a one piece, they will set you back around 100 bucks.

Wow, zen is unusual on a verada. Never seen one, nice work! Not sure how the silver headlights look with the zen colour, the black-backed ones look great on the VRX's. I thought about upgrading mine to a zen VRX AWD, but my car is fine, no good reason to spend more cash. AWD's have a different floor plan, so the mitsubishi AWD floor mats fit the drivers side nicely. All the other seats are not an issue. Its a lot of cash though for a bit of carpet. I bought them, ~$130 or something stupid like that

I actually ordered the tailored ones from autobarn today......$99 is about the amount I want to spend on mats......

I wasn't sure about the color at first but it has grown on me just like the car is growing on me everyday...Also like the fact that I haven't seen another car the same color as mine on the road as yet.......ZEN was actually a 380 color and must have been introduced to the last of the 3rd Gens

Zen was available from TL/KL. There's a few zen coloured TL/TW VRX etc on here.
