ON THE ROAD IN THE MITSUBISHI EVO FQ400 Pistonheads.com
I expectancy you’re sitting down. I have just driven a £50k Mitsubishi Evo. This isn’t a custom-made job either, but a walk-into-the-showroom-and-tick-a-box car, the Mitsubishi Evo X FQ400.On first glint it appears to have had an accident with the Halford’s parts department and come out with lots of garish plastic add-ons. On second look you’ll notice wings on wings, carbonfibre front spoilers and a centrally mounted rectangular exhaust. This is not a car that blends into unexceptional traffic.
Inside the FQ400 there is less of the add-on garishness, though the bass box of the Rockford Fosgate sound system in the boot is carried over from the other highly specced Evo X models. But analysing the looks and wincing at its arrival is not the point of this car; it is about pure A-to-B speed, and boy can it do this well.
As a massive rally fan growing up with the North York Moors and Dalby Forest as my playground I have a genius predisposition for this sort of car. But I was always one to fall on the Subaru side and, with them being the most recent factory team competing, I still stick with that bias. Off the momentous-stage, Subaru’s last road car that really hit the spot was the RB320 and I really loved that car. It would take something special to top that, and our old long-word FQ360 never managed to outpoint the RB320 in my rally-nutter affections.
