This is a 2005 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IX Wagon. Designed by Shuzo Akamine and Hiroshi Fujii, this is a wagon version of the Evolution IX sports sedan.
Introduced on 3 March 2005 in Japan and the Geneva Motor Show, the Evolution IX, or Evo 9 as it is commonly known, featured numerous enhancements over previous Evos. The Evo IX was fitted with a 2.0L 4G63 turbocharged inline-4, making 287 hp; this was mated to a 5- or 6-speed manual. The engine has the MIVEC variable valve timing system and a revised turbocharger design. The car was also made available in the United States, being introduced at the New York International Auto Show in April 2005.
Despite the enhancements, many features were carried over from the Evo VIII, such as a rooftop generator, BBS forged wheels, HID xenon headlights, foglights, special badging and an aluminum roof among other changes. A number of trim levels were available for the Evo IX, from RS to GSR. Most notable was the introduction of the Evolution IX Wagon, described as having "supercar pace from an estate car".
The wagon was equipped with the same 2.0L 4G63 turbo inline-4 as the sedan, generating 276 hp; a 6-speed manual was standard. It has a 0-100 km/h (62 mph) time of 4.8 seconds. Only available officially in Japan, the car was often imported into other countries; the wagon was discontinued in 2007 along with the Evolution IX. 2,924 were produced.
Now this casting was designed by Ron Wong and introduced in 2026 in a 2-Pack. This is currently its only release.
