Michelin Tire Giveaway, Round 3—Pick Your Favorite!

It’s time for Round 3 of our monthly Michelin/BFGoodrich Tire Giveaway! Our partners at Michelin USA have granted us the ability to hand out brand new sets of Michelin, Michelin Classic, and BFGoodrich tires to select BaT auction winners. But this responsibility is too heavy to be borne alone, so we’re once again asking for your help in determining which vehicle is most worthy of new rubber.

Here’s how it works:
We’ve identified four candidates below, all no-reserve vehicles wearing older or mixed generic rubber (or both). We want you to tell us which you’d like to see get a free set of new Michelin, Michelin Classic or BFGoodrich tires! Let us know your vote in the comments, and please vote for one car only. As with our Question of the Week contests, we heavily favor the People’s Choice—but on occasion, we reserve the right to hand the prize to the most appropriate candidate in our view. Since the auctions close over the course of a few days, voting will remain open until midnight Pacific time on Monday, April 20. That gives you time to think, and gives the auctions time to run their courses. We’ll tally the votes and announce the winner on Tuesday April 21.
In no particular order, here are your candidates!
1994 Mitsubishi 3000GT VR-4 6-Speed

1990s Japanese GT and sports cars have a big following here on BaT, and the 3000GT was perhaps the funkiest of the breed, with AWD, four-wheel steering, active aero, variable damper settings, and a big removable glass roof panel. The Martinique Yellow Pearl paint on this example makes it even more unique, and we don’t even mind it with the chrome wheels. It’s been around the world several times with 184k miles on the clock, but some big maintenance items have been checked off in the last 10k miles. It almost hurts to see it still sitting on winter tires as driving season arrives.
