This is a fast, great handling car. It is not a Cadillac, it doesn't have a lot of toys, but bang for the buck it can't be beat.

The Evolution competes with vehicles twice its price w/ regard to performance. Specifically, the car's steering feel is unmatched; the vehicle responds immediately to every steering input. Also, grip with the stock Advan tires is exceptional.

The Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution is great car in all aspects. It's a quick car with a great suspension. It's a great car for the track. It's lots of fun to drive on the highway, canyon, or the track. It is not the greatest every day car and the exterior looks make everyone think your on your way to see the next "Fast and Furious" movie. The interior is basic and simple, but great for the track. Its suspension does a great job in the canyons and tracks, but provides a VERY bumpy ride on anything but smooth and new road. Its steering is quick, which is great for salom or the track but on the highway can get you into some trouble. If you're not paying attention, you can end up in the next lane. Its acceleration is very quick and you hit top speed of 149 in less than a minute, at the track of course.

I have become addicted to this car. This is the actual "Driving Machine". It is a true pleasure to drive. This car has great straight line acceleration and exceptional cornering abilities on wet or dry pavement. It is a true all season vehicle.

MY EVO THOUGHTS

Love the nimble quality of the ride. Very responsive it can take off regular and jet out ahead of a torquey automatic. People do not think this car is fast so it is a sleeper. You will get respect when you shift gears. The best thing about it is the low eng torque that is very uncommon in a 4 banger of 2.0 liters. You hit 273lbs @ 3500 so you can shift at that comfortably. Avg 19 mpg is decent for the performance you get. Can stay in 5th gear on the freeway, no need to shift, really! Limited availability can cause problems. Motortrend articles are informative.
