🏁🇯🇵 JDM FRIDAY IS BACK… AND THIS WEEK WE’RE GOING RALLY-BRED. 🇯🇵🏁

So this week we’re going back to the golden era of Japanese performance.
And there was one car that had to make the list…

THE MITSUBISHI LANCER EVOLUTION VI TOMMI MÄKINEN EDITION🔥

🇯🇵 THE EVO 6.5. 🇯🇵

One of the most legendary special-edition Japanese performance cars ever built👌🏻

But why is the Tommi Mäkinen Edition so special?
Let’s talk about it👇
💥 2.0L Turbocharged 4G63
💥 Around 206kW / 373Nm
💥 Mitsubishi AWD
💥 5-Speed Manual
💥 Titanium turbocharger
💥 Quicker steering ratio
💥 Revised suspension
💥 Lightweight Enkei wheels
💥 Recaro sports seats
💥 Momo steering wheel
💥 Aggressive TME-specific styling

And yes…

That legendary 4G63 is right there under the bonnet. 😮‍💨🔥

But here’s where things get interesting…

THIS EVO WAS BUILT TO CELEBRATE A RALLY LEGEND 🏆 Tommi Mäkinen🤌🏻

The Finnish rally driver who dominated the World Rally Championship with Mitsubishi, winning FOUR CONSECUTIVE WRC DRIVER’S TITLES from 1996 to 1999.
And Mitsubishi wanted to celebrate.
So they created the… LANCER EVOLUTION VI TOMMI MÄKINEN EDITION 🎌

The TME wasn’t simply an Evo with some badges slapped on it. Mitsubishi made genuine performance changes to make it sharper, more responsive and more focused.

- The turbo was revised for quicker response.
- The suspension was retuned.
- The steering became quicker.
- The ride height was lowered.
- And the car received its own unique exterior touches.

Basically…

They took an already serious rally-bred machine and made it even more focused🔥🚗🤌🏻
⸻
DID YOU KNOW? 🤔💭

The Tommi Mäkinen Edition is often referred to by enthusiasts as the “Evo 6.5” because of the significant changes made over the standard Evolution VI.

And that unmistakable front end?

You can spot a genuine TME from across the car park 👀

- The iconic front bumper.
- The distinctive Enkei wheels.
- The Recaro interior.
- The Momo steering wheel.
And of course…

🏆 TOMMI MÄKINEN EDITION.
This wasn’t just a special edition.
It was a celebration of Mitsubishi’s dominance in rallying. 🏁
⸻

HOW MUCH DOES AN EVO 6.5 COST IN AUSTRALIA?💰

Now this is where things get VERY interesting…

Genuine, well-presented Tommi Mäkinen Editions are becoming increasingly difficult to find.

And as with most iconic JDM cars, condition, originality, kilometres, specification and history can make a HUGE difference to value.
Some examples can command serious money…

And the really good ones?
They’re becoming collector cars🪎⭐️

Who remembers this beauty 🤫💭

If you’ve been following Garage Addict for a while, you might remember this stunning 2001 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VII GSR in Dandelion Yellow!

Guess what?… its BACK🙌🏻

And this time, it didn’t even make it to the advertising stage 🙈👀

We’re incredibly excited to say that this Evo has already been SOLD 🫱🏻‍🫲🏼🤌🏻, and is now making its way from Tasmania to Melbourne to its new home🏡 Even more special, it’s going to one of our great mates, which makes this sale even more meaningful for us❤️🚗

Features:
With just 110,000 genuine kilometres clocked in now, this Evo is an absolute JDM gem. It comes with a full service history and receipts for the work completed, along with no accident history and no rust. Under the bonnet, this beast has been properly sorted, producing an impressive 271kW on E85 and 240kW on 98, tuned by RE Motorsport, with all dyno sheets available. The car is running a Haltech Elite Series ECU, along with launch control, pops and crackles through a dedicated switch, and plenty more to make this Evo as exciting to drive as it looks👌🏻🔰

That iconic Dandelion Yellow paint, the legendary Evo VII GSR platform and a properly built performance setup make this one seriously special💛🏁

But..
What makes us even prouder is seeing cars we’ve sold return to Garage Addict and then find their way to people we know and trust 😇 We’re nothing but proud when our customers become friends, and our cars become part of their stories 🚘💨

Congratulations to our mate and the new owner — enjoy every single boost-filled kilometre!🔰🔥

It’s been a busy week trying to hunt down another Toyota MR-S🎌💭

Finally another 2000 Toyota MR-S with factory Aero has been successfully secured through our trusted dealer network in Japan for one of our valued customers in Melbourne🚢🫱🏻‍🫲🏼🇦🇺

Finished in the stunning Blue Mica paintwork and showing just 92,411kms, this clean example is now all prepared for shipping and will soon be making its way from Japan to its new home in Melbourne🫰🏻🚙💨

The Toyota MR-S has earned a reputation as one of Japan’s most underrated sports cars. With its lightweight mid-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout, it delivers a driving experience that’s becoming increasingly difficult to find in modern cars 🤌🏻As clean examples continue to get harder to source, it’s no surprise they’re becoming a popular choice among JDM enthusiasts 👀🔰

Watching another customer’s dream become a reality is what it’s all about😇🇯🇵
