Four in a Row

Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI GSR — 280 PS, 1,360 kg, and four world titles in a row. Put it on to study, sleep, or drive. Read the car, or just let it run. ── know your car ── Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI GSR · 1999–2001 · Japan · 2.0L 4G63T · 276hp · 1360 kg ▌ The Tommi Mäkinen Edition exists for one reason: Mäkinen became the first WRC driver to win four consecutive drivers' titles. ▌ He took Rallye Sanremo on tarmac in 1998 and 1999 — which is why the TME is a tarmac package: lowered ride height, torque peak moved down to 2,750 rpm. ▌ The VI GSR launched in January 1999 as the CP9A: 280 PS at 6,500 rpm, 38.0 kgm at 3,000, 1,360 kg on 225/45ZR17s. ▌ It is a homologation special sold as a road car — Mitsubishi built it so the rally team could race it. The IV, V and VI are the generations that define the late-90s poster era. ▌ Buying one is a hunt for crank-walk (thrust-bearing wear, worse on hard-launched cars), a tired turbo, and rust in the arches and floors. A straight, documented car commands a big premium.
