If Mitsubishi took the Evo with the 4g63 platform and did exactly what Chevy did with the Corvette C8, that car would easily sell with a price tag of 60k plus. Give us a supercar type of Evo. Its already proved to be the best platform with a 4 cylinder motor

I drove my evo 9 from SJ to Santa Cruz and back everyday for a year. What a time!

The JDM version of the Evo8/9 had much taller bottom bolsters, the USDM (and I think Aus/NZ versions) received the more flat wider bolsters because of different body shape of each demographic. The JDM Evo IX wagon received the same seats as the USDM models.

GRC does not compare to Evo if you want to modify it a bit. GRC is better kept stock.

Nice and very true review! A buddy has a 911 GT3, a GTR 35 and a M3, but his by far favorite car in terms of handling is a stock Evo5 he got for 22k. PS: The hard brake s for permanent leftfoot braking - feels worse with your right foot, but does a better job on leftfoot braking feel. It's an example for the genes of the car✌

The lack of thigh bolster was probably a deliberate design choice. It makes the car more accessible to a wider group of owners.

It’s an amazing car the icon of the 90”s Japanese era

So many of these cars we used to love were possible to pick up for reasonable prices once upon a time. Just another on the long list of “love it so much but isn’t worth it anymore” cars

I had a 2006 STi from new, and it was a hell of a car. I ended up picking it over the Evo as it was my only vehicle and there were doubts about Mitsubishi surviving around that time. Subaru seemed better built and a bit nicer. I will say the steering ratio in the Evo seemed so quick and fun. The seats in that Evo were also the best OEM seats from anyone and blew the Subaru out of the water in that respect. These things were crazy bargains for the performance at the time and could give a 911 more than double their price a real run for their money on a twisty road. I ended up trying both subsequent generations of STi on test drives and neither had the same magic. I would have a hard time believing a GR Corolla can match the experience of a cherry car from this era.

Subaru was definiltey not better built. The amount of power you could throw at the 4g63t and abuse wasn't even comparable to the sti. Not to mention mitsubishis complete chassis redesign from the Lancer. They weren't even the same car with almost no interchangeable parts where subaru just copy pasted the base impreza chassis and slapped a wing and sti badges and called it a day.

I had an Evo 8 I bought brand new in 2004. I chose that over the s2000 I was test driving. Today I own an ap1 S2000, but itching to get back into an Evo again. Seriously considering selling the S for an Evo 8/9.

Was looking at a new car purchase here last week. Cross shopping between a c6 base corvette, 2016-2019 STI, and a 2016-2018 Mustang. I was looking for a daily but couldn't go that old just because of the creature comforts. Also, finding parts was important to me. I ultimately decided against an STI just because the Boxers are so unpredictable when purchasing new and I don't know if I could justify the new block costs if it broke. Got myself a 2015 Mustang GT Premium 6 speed for $24.5k and couldn't be happier! Wanted to get an Evo, but the price is just too high for something that might not have parts availability as well as the Mustang.

The center differential control will lock more on looser surfaces and act more like an open diff on tarmac. If the center diff was locked on tarmac the car would feel very tight and difficult to rotate since all four wheel speeds would be tied together. If the center diff is open on a loose surface you'll jusy spin either the front or rear wheels.

It was basically a brand new car, super clean So personally….from purely a “fun” prospective…I don’t think it’s worth 30k given the mileage and age and 99% of Evos are more than likely going to be beat to hell. Reliability has always been rumored to be iffy…but that could be because people tune and beat the shit out of them. That said the closest thing that’s new is probably a GR Corolla? But those don’t nearly have the same mod potential….engines can hold a good amount of power but the AWD system overheats stock lol I’d love an Evo though….be able to haul the kiddo without compromising driving dynamics and fun.

Mitsubishi had so much potential with their engines. They stopped producing the rally tested 4g63. Then the 4b11 only had a few years to prove itself. Theses evolutions are trash now and can only be revived if they continued the platform and produced the parts for them. I wonder why they stopped. The evo 8 used to be my dream car.

Same thing on autocrosses, like I'll set a best time for the day, all smug taking pictures of the rankings, then around lunch an S2000 will arrive and knock me down a spot.

Hahah it’s that inflation. I had a e46 m3’s that I bought back in 2011 and sold it over a year ago for way more than I paid. I’d say the e46 m3 market was similar to the evo. I also bought a $9k e46 m3 with only 70k miles. Still have it but I’m sure it’s worth over 30k right now as well

More than that

Road name?

EVO 8 was 29,999 msrp. buying it used for the same priced used, 20 years later, no thanks!

That's a ton of money for what's basically a tarted up economy car. I know there's not a bunch of them and it is a special car but damn. There's so many amazing cars out there for 30k. Hey if it's your dream car and you've got the money I'm not gonna tell you you're wrong for buying one. Also I wish they'd made more of the old Galant VR4s. No it's not a blazing fast car but I've got soft spot for them. Can't find them now. Oh and if I did have 30k and wanted a Mitsubishi I'd have to go with the 3000GT. You can get one of the nicest, low mileage examples for 30. It's heavy I know and it's not a rally car. Far as I know they never rallied but they're fantastic looking rides.

What's the equivalent to an Evo that's worth the same amount? Also calling it a tarted up economy car is proposterous lol

The best car ever. Shame so many are clapped

No way i am paying 30k tho maybe 10k, but 30? Hell to the nah.

2025 Mitsubishi Lacer Evolution XI Hybrid please.

JDM CT9A’s (8’s and 9’s) got a six speed. They aren’t as strong as the five speed though.

@@swisscourthustle I know, but does 6th gear allow lower rpms at 80mph?

Not worth the current used cost. Can get a used F80 M3

Drive it harder!!! You are driving an EVO!!!
