The Appeal
Impreza or Evo? Both are iconic rally-bred performance cars, but which is it to be? The Mitsubishi is often described as the more focused and sharp of the pair, with pinpoint accurate steering and more linear power delivery. If that sounds like the car for you, then we're delighted to offer this fantastic 2001 example, the Evolution VII.
Benefitting from a fully forged engine built by Dynotech, and reportedly now running almost 500hp, this Evo is a seriously capable machine. The vendor tells us:
"It's an absolute hoot to drive, the vehicle absolutely flies and is genuinely one of the quickest vehicles I’ve ever driven, and I’ve driven a lot of cars! Handles like a dream, sounds the part and is a dream car for many people.
" I bought the car in 2024 but a change in circumstances means I need to sell it. It has always been dry stored and never taken out in the rain."image.png2.08 MB
