Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IX
What cross our mind when hearing a word Mitsubishi is Lancer EVO. The car which expresses a peculiar owner´s style and his sense for perfection. It is a difference between buying the newest Porsche and EVO. The Porsche owner is aware of buying a popular car but at the same time the buying of this car says that he wants to be different, in other words, Porsche is a car for „fopishness“, to attract. But a person who bought EVO knows to what he put money. He invested money to the most popular travel car with that amount of a sport character which EVO certainly owns. This car has the style, the car itself is perfect and it expresses a lot about a person who owns it.
