Default 3000 GT's making a comeback?

Maybe I've just become focused on them, but it seems like I'm seeing a lot of old Mitsubishi 3000 GT's on the road here recently.
Not even necessarily the VR4 model, just 3000 GT's in general.
Are they suddenly making a comeback with rebuilders?

Hell.. I even saw a fine example of its American-badged cousin the Dodge Stealth the other day. I thought all of them had disappeared.

Kids will buy anything once it falls below a certain market value. They probably weren't able to afford a Supra or 300ZX since those usually command a bit more money.

Last few surviving examples being turned loose by the maturing 30 somethings?

See, that's what I thought too.
Even the VR4's weren't stellar performers.
I dunno, I've just been seeing a lot of them lately and was wondering if it was just me (or Austin).

Buddy has a Stealth. Twin turbo all wheel drive all wheel steer. It's pretty quick around the track... and not so much stock under the hood.
