Mitsubishi Lancer EVO X GSR

Mitsubishi Lancer EVO X GSRAfter a good run with the EVO IX, the EVO X was released by our good friends at Mitsubishi and put smiles on all of our faces. Well the Japanese automaker has done it again with a premium edition of the GSR version. Although only available in the Japanese domestic market (JDM), it doesn’t hurt us to dream about the great EVO X.

A level up from the RS and the GSR trims, the premium EVO X comes with fog lamps, 18-inch BBS wheels and body color scoops to match the overall look. Inside, the EVO X GSR premium comes with leather Recaro bucket seats, built-in Navi and a 9-speaker Rockford Fosgate stereo system - not that you’ll have the need to listen to anything but the engine.

Don’t worry though, they haven’t made any enhancements to the all-mighty 2.0L MIVEC I4 turbocharged/intercooled motor. It’s going to cost about $48,250 USD for the manual transmission or $50,785 for Mitsubishi’s impressionable Twin Clutch-SST DSG-equipped model.
