Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IX MR-edition

The Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IX MR-edition (Mitsubishi Racing) is the successor to the Lancer Evolution VIII MR Edition and replaced it in 2005. The main alteration of the IX was a reworked turbocharger producing an additional 25 horsepower and a slightly reworked body.

The IX was also sold as an estate within Japan during 2006. High-performance models branded as "FQ" were offered by Mitsubishi within the United Kingdom.

Cost/Unlock
The car costs $110,000 to purchase and is unlocked after defeating Kenji in his rematch at Journeyman's Bane.

Kenji
Kenji drives a Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IX MR-edition when the player reaches Stacked Deck. His Evo IX can only be obtained in the PC version (by using a hex editor/Extra Options) to recreate the vinyl.

It uses Bodykit 3, Autosculpt Charged Hood, Tenzo R Shu 10 rims, Autosculpt Blastback Roof Scoop and Ripper Carbon Fiber rear spoiler.

This Evo can be driven in the Gold Challenge Series event Around the World.

This Evo IX, along with the other two Tier 3 Boss cars' bodykits were fitted on top of the stock body. However, the Improvement Mod fixed these problems.

Bodykits
The car has five bodykits in the beta, but in the full game, Bodykit 1 was cut due to optimization reasons, but will be restored in the next version of Improvement Mod.
