Mitsubishi Lancer Evo Tommi MakinenVI
On twisting country lanes, keeping up with Tommi Makinen (both the man and the car), in any situation, is outright impossible. The Tommi Makinen edition Lancer Evo VI adds (to the standard Evo) a larger intercooler, new bumper with redesigned air dam, new high performance muffler, specially tuned suspension, new Recaro front seats, redesigned wheels and a smaller-diameter compressor wheel and redesigned propeller blades for the turbo in order to deliver improved low and mid-range torque and response.The resulting acceleration capability is even more impressive than on the lesser, but still incredibly potent (normal) Evo. The handling is razor sharp and neutral (but with oversteer available on demand), nevertheless at the expense of an uncompromisingly harsh ride. To achieve the complete Makinen experience, plan on spending a bit more on the special WRC-red livery. Like the standard Evo, the TM edition is available as the cheaper RS version or the slightly lower, wider and heavier GSR which also includes larger Brembo brakes and 225/45ZR17 tires (but not in North America). - by Traian Popescu
