Review of Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution 6 Tommi Makinen Limited Edition

yes fred.'s recommendation

Good Points

Generally fast with excellent brakes.

Bad Points

Handling not as good as everyone thinks.

General Comments

Fast once within the turbo band (over 3,000 rpm).

Understeers a lot in slow corners, and doesn't give the driver the confidence to drive flat out.

Often frustrating to drive given its "on" "off" turbo. Made for smooth tarmaced roads, doesn't feel controlled over typical UK country roads

    hmm i think it might be something to do with the driver, the car owns the roads and everything between them.

    A rally car that can't cope with UK country roads? This thing will out move anything short of a full-blown WRC car. Fact. I agree with the first comment - the review says more about the driver than the car.

    Are you kidding ?
    Once you get off your L plates you will find it handles a lot better.

    Man, if this car is rubbish then whats left?????
    are you on some kind of medication?

    I'm more inclined to go with the meditation theory for this guy. I took my Evo6GSR to the track for THE FIRST TIME the other weekend and ran within 3sec of the "pro's" in a Gp N. Evo6RS complete with anti-lag and slicks! This car handles so well that it HIDES natural inability or inexperience :)
    BTW - lap times were 75sec for me, 72sec for them - just for your reference...

    Are you kidding me???? Im from Australia and im still on my Learners plates and i was kicking Skyline GTRS asses in drags. I had the confidence to drive this car flat out and ive only been aloud to drive legally for 4 months.

    If you cant drive this car flat out you must be an absolute bloody useless driver!!!

    p.s. Its actually been rated as one of the best handling production cars in the world you tool!
