- Опубликовано: 12 сен 2024
- This 2015 Mitsubishi EVO X is one of the 1600 Final Editions that were produced. This model has some special touched from the factory but also even better touches from the owner. Come take a look and see how this EVO X is the perfect starting point for an awesome engine build. From it's inline-4 turbocharged engine mated to a 5-speed gearbox and it's AWD system. See what mods have been done and what is coming next to this Final Edition EVO X!
Fell in love with them as soon as they came out in 2008, my ex had an Evo X Final - made me fall in love with it even more. He woke up one day and his car was stolen. Hope to own one day, sadly he passed - I’ll forever remember my cruises with him, winning every car race.
dang that was sad :(
I'm so sorry to hear about his passing. I pray for you and his family. I had a 2013 Evo X and still miss it to this day. Here's to hoping you one day get one yourself and hold on to it and the wonderful memories made in the 2008.
Me and my wife used to go for drives in my 2015 mustang gt I hope you end up with one and can relive those moments together!
EVO X is amazing and beautiful car , even Subaru now look like EVO X and i love it. Big love from STi guy :D
This really is a great car!
STD guy*
Mitsu really dropped the ball when they stopped production. That's a hella good lookin car, and you know it goes.
I totally agree with you! Thank you so much for taking the time to watch!
15:45 the next 20 seconds are awesome. Your love for cars is infectious!
I totally agree with you Nathan!
Tom back there is adding extra structural rigidity :D
This is very true! He is almost like a roll bar! lol
Ahahha
Was awesome meeting you Joe and Tom as well, was pleasure seeing you review the car and enjoyed it, thank you guys!
Hey Tony! I REALLY am so grateful that your brought your car out that day and patiently waited while I reviewed it! I hope you enjoyed the video and I hope I made you proud! I am looking forward to that part two! ;-)
@@RaitisRides i loved every bit of the video and you did great job. Im actually grateful you reviewd it, part 2 will be really crazy!
Thank you sir that really means a lot!
Iam glad I got one right before the dealerships sold out and not for dealer markup, no regrets on trading in my sti.
I am so glad that you liked this one! What color is yours?
@@RaitisRides off course the rarest colorway, DWP (400 units only) #772 and she's staying stock and keeping it forever.
@@viii8993 for sure, hopefully they end up being like nsx and s2000 in demand later in the future.
Good choice
You are one luck guy!
Thank you very much for talking about a beautiful legend like evolution.
success on your channel and greetings from Guatemala
I like how tony was smart enough, to not let you drive his car. Good job Tony 👍
I like how raitis rides always makes these videos look so good and sound so good as well and I can keep watching all day and not get bored what's so ever 💯👌👌🌚🌚
Nice one Joe.......looks like you really enjoyed the ride, looked like a blast!! Like what Tony did with this Evo. Thanks to Tony.
Big up to Tom for his camera work!
Thank you sir for your great support and always taking the time to watch and comment! I am so grateful of how people are reaching out like Tony to allow me to review their amazing cars!
Finally picked up a X this week to go with my 8. Couldn’t be happier
Congrats Jim!
Well, I went back in time to watch this how you were really good back down to I remember those days! that’s then I first started watching you!
Nice video. I have an 17 sti myself but I still love these cars too. I got the sti because it is a way better daily driver since I have a little family of my own but I definitely wouldn’t mind having one of these evo’s as well 👍🏼
STi is really nice car man enjoy.
Thank you so much for your compliment! It's cool to see others just appreciate different types of cars! That for me is what it's all about!
Yes sir!
id trade my subie for this anyday, I got a stage 2 2014 wrx
So would I! I heard there is still a brand new 2015 Final Edition EVO X for sale in NJ!
stage 2 lol
My slightly massaged 2011 Evo GSR is now a garage queen with 59,000 miles. Parked right next to my other garage queen, a 93' Mazda RX-7 Turbo. Guess I know how to pick cars that go out of production!
Everyone remember when cars had their own rivals lol
Skyline gtr vs supra
Subaru sti vs evo
Mazda rx7 vs s14 i think lol golden age of the 90s
Sucks how Mitsubishi stop making evos!
I totally agree!
I wish they would make a new 3000gt but i definitely agree on the evo comeback
@@GLXY23 3000gt they might bring it back to compete against supras but I feel evos are more fun to drive and better handling
@@csick11 I did hear about that with evos. Just really wanted an revival of the 3000gt considering they forgot about that car decades ago.
They should bring back the evo to compete with Honda type R
@15.30 looks like you’re rethinking your whole life lol
You are awesome! Thank you so much for that compliment!
I have a final edition and IX MR and yes it is a garage queen..
I looked at FOCUS RS, 17 STI .I give it to these cars interior definitely better inside . I have my evos for performance and both make me smile ever day ..Tony is right you have to ride in or own to really see
You are a lucky man! The EVO is one of those crs on my list that I wish I would of bought!
Nice man i love my final edition specially that diamond white
So do I!
Lol fellows I just got done washing mine ..It is worth every penny and effort everyone needs and evo in their life roflol
@@evox09 hell yeah
Working hard for this to be my first car 😍
same here man !!
If you talking about it as a first car. Your insurance will run 500 a month on top of 800 dollar car payment. Invest in a Roth IRA instead my friend
sam hawkz i was paying 350 for the lowest insurance for a basic lancer i cant even imagine if lt was a evo
A future classic for sure, a prince amongst 4 pots.
Note the shape of the headlights, inspiration for the 2018 Mustangs,albeit with an intake under the inboard edge.
Andy in Coventry UK
You hit the nail on the head!
Every Evo doesn't need to be modified! I hope I can find a stock used one in good condition in the future. 🙂
Joe, when you refer to "Piano Black" and then "Gloss Black," is there a difference in these blacks justifying the different reference? Also, is there a difference in a blow-off valve vs. a waist gait? The only "Zonk" I can come up with on this particular vehicle is that the steering wheel star should have the carbon fiber overlay like what was done on the bumper star.
Yes, piano black and gloss black are interchangeable. I think you have some good eyes there and your ZONL is totally appropriate! Great job!
@Peter Carey Great questions! I think the answer lies somewhere between a Hatchback and a Wagon... Just a little inside joke between Joe and I. 🤘🏻🔥🤘🏻
Philip Rosenthale now that made me laugh! Those damn semantics! 😉👍🏻
Haha you called it a "waist" gate.
Justin I had so many thoughts and emotions going on with this review!
Love this channel. It so invigorating !! I think this sharing show your car is inspiring. Thnx!! Go Raiti's Ride Go !!
That is really awesome of your to say! I am so grateful to have your support! Thank you for being on this journey with me!
Wish I had more hands! So I could 4 thumbs up! 👍👍👍👍 Evolution 4life! Keep up the good work!
Hell yeah bro, Evo is life!!
Wouldn't have it any other way!
Thank you so much for your wonderful compliment! I will bring more EVOs to you!
They are really great cars! I wish Mitsubishi wouldn't have stopped selling them!
It's the one car I wish I would of bought!
A exercise of evolution. Showed everybody up 👍👍
I am so glad that you liked this one!
Seems so hard to find cars nowadays that are as analog as this one, like the Aston Martin V12 Vantage with the manual transmission. It's feels like a send off to an era.
I totally agree with you! The closet thing when it comes to new would be the Subaru STi! Thank you so much for watching!
Raiti's Rides Definitely! Hopefully they keep the sales numbers up and won't have to worry about them stopping production, or putting a cvt in it haha
I'm so worried they are going to screw it up!
Really enjoying the content! You’re doing great man, keep it up!
That is really awesome of you to say and so very motivating!
Fell in love with the evo x when i first saw it on prostreet. My dream car eversince.
There shouldn't have been a Final Edition Evolution. If only they promoted an "Evo XI" as much as they do with the Eclipse Cross, it would be a hit and give STi and Kia Stinger owners another choice 👍
I TOTALLY agree with you! It's a damn shame!
@@RaitisRides Yeah, I'm not sure why they decided to cancel the regular Mitsu Lancer, a redesign would've been ideal to compete with the likes of Mazda 3 and Civic which people still buy today
It gave their brand some identity!
That guy in the back seat seems to be happy right there even without the seat cushion.
I really wish mitsubishi would bring the evo back😭
Evo looks more aggressive than the STI, front end wise idk is really hard choosing one of them both look good but I would say the evo got a more raw look than the wrx/STI look more mature
I agree with you! It is really sinister looking!
Hard choice back in early 2015 choosing between one of these nd a wrx/STI
Oh yes that it!
I love your vids and your passion man. Keep it up.
That is so awesome of you to say! I really appreciate your support!
Love this video. Keep up the great work guys👍👍
Thanks for letting us share these with you!
Guy in the backseat 👀😂 loving the turbo boost
Re watching this 2 years later 😎👍🏻
Rumor has it they're bringing the Evo back
He said two years ago
This is my dream car!!! Specially the Evo 6, woohoo 🎉, good review Raiti's.
more evo 10 video please!
YES SIR! I love EVOs!
@@RaitisRides yes pls more evo videos
EVO FLAMES you got it👍🏻😎
Lol what’s the deal with Tom chillin in the back for the drive???
He didn't want to be left out and just wanted to enjoy the ride!
Final edition makes evo so special very rare i love it.
How is the hood scoop functional when the car has a FMIC? Is there something else up there for cooling?
I'm unsure if you said whether or not Tony races this but for a daily driver, how does removing the rear seats help? Does weight reduction improve gas mileage?
It's all about bringing air into the engine compartment.
@@RaitisRides That's what I was thinking. I did see someone do a Top Mount Oil Cooler to make use of their hood scoop after going FMIC
Awesome car, Tony! Thanks for sharing, Mr. Raiti!
Thank you Bryan 😊
I really think Mitsubishi designed the finest import production racecar ever, Whitezilla. Your EVO is gorgeous. Heck, back in March of 2007 my wife and I paid $24,350 for our 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer GTS CVT. I wanted a 5-speed stick and the guy on the phone said the car they wanted to sell me was a 5-speed, in actuality it was an automatic CVT. We bought it anyway. Now, the car rocked though. It had a Rockford Fosgate 8-speaker 560-watt stereo that was great. That body design just rocks like Foghat in May of 1978 at the Seattle Center Coliseum. Absolutely gorgeous! Enjoy that pup - I am either going for a 2017 Nissan Sentra NISMO 6-speed or a 2015-2017 Mitsubishi Lancer GT 5-speed stick. I'm CarGuru-ing that search now! Rock on!
@@bwho Thats awesome, speaking of nismo is great i had 370z Nismo beautful car and loved everything about it, if you wanna see more pics of the Nismo 370z check my pics on my Instagram
Cool. I love Nissan because they love great cars, they don't overcharge, and they build great cars. I love Mitsubishi and Nissan, this hunt is gonna be fun! I am gonna buy used, but it's got ta be gently used. I'm think Monday will be purchase day, so I'm getting excited! Enjoy your car - man is building some great cars now. Ford's Focus ST rocks pretty nicely, Mitsubishi's EVO and Lancer GT, and Nissan's Sentra NISMO and SR Turbo are all great cars. I'm gonna go for what's best, and who offers me the best overall trade-in and purchase contract deal. Love your Mitsubishi! That motor is pretty hard to beat - how it purrs. Enjoy!
@@bwho thank you, enjoy ur future car and good luck
I have a WW Evo X and just got it tuned and it a whole different animal. Cant wait to get it tuned on E85 on stock turbo lol then I’ll upgrade to a stock frame turbo🤗
Hon-Duh can't touch dis. I owned a 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer GTS CVT. Wonderful car, I wouldn't mind coming back and buying another, honestly. Gotta be a 5-speed manual, though. Nissan 2017-2019 Sentra SR Turbo and NISMO are pulling me Nissan's way, but, we'll see. Gonna enjoy the chase!
I totally agree with you!
Bryan Lund shop around buddy. There's alot more competition with more hp for the same price (focus st, vw gti, think Veloster N which is supposed to launch soon). Unless you really get a killer deal with that nismo.
@@ValenNitto Been, there's s 2017 Nissan Sentra NISMO at a used car dealer about an hour and a half from me with 6,800 miles on it selling for only $17,995. I would offer $16,000. Would be a pretty great deal then.
Good review of Tony :) the evo doesnt even matter anymore, Tony here and Tony there is better.
Yes sir I agree!
In Canada They came with Recaro on "stock" verion
and we dont have this sterring wheel we got another one
You guys up there received special treatment while here in the States we were screwed!
I think a lot of it comes down to regulations in the USA compared to Canada. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment!
I sold my final edition 1 month ago looking to get a gt350 in the near future.
Hey Joe! Sorry to kick up an old video, but I noticed in the beginning of the video you mention the color as “Wicked White” but for the final edition the color is actually “Pearl White”
“Ehniki”, it’s pronounced “n-k” enkei
I appreciate you saying that! Thank you so much for your suport!
I’m 17 and wondering if this car would be a good first car to have, any input?
I think it is a little much for a first time driver with the mods.. I would say go Civic Si
9 years later I got my evo x😏🥳
Another great video
Thank you so much for saying that! I really appreciate your support!
Really nice Car. The only thing i would pick is the wheels need the center caps. G`day Tom, Can`t call you a back seat driver because No Back Seat.
I think you hit the nail on the head with the red center caps! I also would like the car to sit a tad lower! Thanks for giving Tom a shoutout!
I like the evo X but it looks too similar to the lancer, Evos before it really looked different to the regular version
I have a 2011 MR, 44'000 mi.' still stock. It runs so good the way it is. But sometimes I think about doing it.
You are so lucky Tom!
Keep it stock bro! Mine has 80k miles and runs beautifully. Just intake and exhaust on it
Does the final edition come in automatic
These cars aren’t good when stock but when tuned it’s a supercar killer
Totally agree! I've seen these produce great power!
As an STI owner I too still always want an evo lol! Maybe ill just own both one day
Its really something spacial brother even tho its not fancy car or anything but the joy you get from it its unbelievable, plus i had tow 2014 subaru wrx sedans, than switched to dark side. I still love Subaru tho.
I like Mitsu's better than Subies, myself. The body design is so cool, plus the Mitsubishi motor is awesome!
Nothing wrong with that!
It's cool when we can appreciate each others cars!
I wish they would not have stopped making them!
What’s the name of that sound when he change the gear?
My dream car 😍
Go after it Christian!
@@RaitisRides thanks man, love your channel!
Im a evo lover... Hope i can get 1 someday..
You can do it ma! I believe in you!
Beautiful white!
It really pops in the sun!
one of my dream car. 😊
His front fascia mods are a smooth +5 in hp, easily
Sweet ride.
I am so glad that you enjoyed this one!
I use to have those rims on my 2012 wrx enkei rpf1 sick wheels .. 👍🏼..
As usual a nice car. I'd like you to find a nice older M1 BMW or a wicked modded BMW 135i. You should see those things when they are modded...yikes. I just got my MHD tune stage 1.
Ask and you shall receive! I have an M1 coming soon!
Awesome. I hope you get to drive it to to let us know how it drives vs your Focus RS.
I would love to! I rode in one a few years ago and it was pretty amazing!
THANK YOU TONY👍✔😎
Perfect design. Its look brandnew even 2020. Wow its 2008 design but the look still fresh better than fk8 type r, nissan gtr
Joe why didn't you drive this ride ?? 🤔 It's way better when you are in control !!!
She a beautiful beast guys 🏁🍻😅
I totally agree with you on that one! Thank you so much for watching!
Mitsubishi still produces the EVO, it’s just not exported to the USA.
Unless you wanna spend $1,000,000
This is amazing
Hey Joe! When are you going to actually drive an evo X? If only you’re near Alberta I would let you drive my final edition GSR with recaros and sunroof.
I am still waiting on the opportunity! Thank you for the offer!
Does it have Bilstein shocks?
Yes
new subscriber here, great car, thanks for sharring
There is a subwoofer in the trunk
TONY GOT SOME TASTE.
Final edition white Evos never came in wicked white (flat white). They got the Diamond white pearl paint.
That vents in side wheel is itr eally functional?
Mine was tuned to 400HP.The rego plate was FQ400.Bought a GTR R35 and swapped cars every day. 😊 😊 😊 😊
Thanks for sharing that input and perspective! I really appreciate you watching!
Are you saying 40k miles is a lot?
There is still a new, never sold, 20 or so mile 2015 final edition Evo X at a mitsu dealer near me. Every time I see it on Auto trader or what ever, I have to force myself to just not even think about it...
Really?!? Where do you live? They must want a crazy price for it!
@@RaitisRides I just checked the listing, they want $35858. It's at Anaheim Mitsubishi here in Absurdistan (formally known as California)
That seems about right for price! What color is it? You crack me up!
@@RaitisRides gun metal grey... I think I'm going to go test drive it tomorrow and figure out wtf?
Man... I so don't need another car right now...
Edward Agora Feenman great color though!
Joe, will you please review the 2022
Owned total of three Subaru STI since 2006 and has always being a STI and EVO fan. But honestly, I wouldn't buy any of these car "NEW" today. They pretty much remain unchanged for the past 10 years while other sport cars advance so much with new technologies. Oh well, at least they didn't up their price much.
Paul that’s a very good point! Thank you so much for watching.
Paul yeah your correct compared to the German cars today there like shopping 🛒
They are ton of fun to drive though.
When the final edition came out everyone was putting them down. They too old, they too heavy on gas the gas tanks too small, they dont connect to your phone, its only a 5 speed, its too expensive, they too heavy blah blah blah. No ones saying that now.
I wish 三菱 would make the Evo again. I wanted one too but they stopped making them so I got an Sti
Wondering why I keep hearing how Fwd cars dominated really like the celica
DJ Triton-SAMA the Celicas that dominated World Rally were AWD.👍🏻
But they didnt use the heart of each Evo. 4G63
How many horse power this one has ? Looks and hear amazing !!!!! Foookx
400HP
Really debating on getting an X....but buying a 9+ year old platform no longer in production sketches me out.
How much does the backseat weigh?? 🙄
Beautiful car
Thanks bro!
It really is!
Is that you Tony!
Watching this review made me wanna drink milk and I did lol
Yes man
Thanks man!
Love this
It is a beautiful Evo X!
@@RaitisRides yess I totally agree
I wish they were not gone forever!
@@RaitisRides they are not gone...
You can find some
Canadian spec FE Evos get the Recaros :)
You guys are so damn lucky!
