Why I Want This In GT: The VII, in my opinion, is my favorite Lancer Evolution, and I feel like it deserves the premium treatment.
From Wikipedia: In 2001, Mitsubishi was forced by the FIA to race in the WRC using WRC rules for building a car instead of the Group A class rules, and thus did not need to follow homologation rules. The Evolution VII was based on the larger Lancer Cedia platform and as a result gained more weight over the Evolution VI, but Mitsubishi made up for this with multiple important chassis tweaks. The biggest change was the addition of an active center differential and a more effective limited-slip differential, while a front helical limited-slip differential was added. Torque was increased again to 385 N·m (284 lb·ft) with engine tweaks that allowed greater airflow, and horsepower officially remained at 280 PS (206 kW; 276 hp).
Specifications:
Engine: 4G63 I4
Displacement: 1,997 cc
Aspiration: Turbo
Power: 276 HP
Torque: 284 lb-ft
Weight: 1,320 kg
