This 2006 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IX RS was initially sold in California and remained registered in the state through the seller’s acquisition in 2023. Finished in Igloo White over black upholstery, it is powered by a turbocharged 2.0-liter inline-four linked with a five-speed manual transaxle and an all-wheel-drive system with an Active Center Differential and limited-slip front and rear differentials. Equipment includes a high-performance air intake, an ETS intercooler, a 3″ turbo-back exhaust, a revised fuel system, a custom ECU calibration, Cusco and Ultra Racing chassis braces, KW V3 coilovers, Brembo disc brakes, 18″ Enkei NT03 wheels, HID headlights, carbon-fiber front and rear spoilers, Recaro front seats, a stripped headliner and trunk, air conditioning, WeatherTech floor mats, crank windows, and a Bluetooth-capable Pioneer stereo. This Evo IX RS has 108k miles and is offered with spare and removed parts, an owner’s manual, an accident-free Carfax report, and a clean California title in the seller’s name.
The body is finished in Igloo White (W37) and features an aluminum hood, roof, and fenders. Exterior details include a carbon-fiber front lip spoiler, Ralliart side mirrors, rear window vents, vortex generators, nad decklid spoiler, as well as integrated fog lights, HID headlights, front fender spacers, tinted vent shades, and a JDM-style rear bumper cover.
Black-finished 18″ Enkei NT03 wheels are mounted with Toyo Proxes R1R tires. The suspension is modified with a Cusco front member power brace, Ultra Racing front and rear strut tower braces, and KW V3 coilovers. Stopping power is provided by blue Brembo calipers over a slotted and ventilated rotor at each corner.
The Recaro front seats are trimmed in black leather with microsuede inserts and are joined by a rear bench sourced from an Evo IX Special Edition. The headliner and trunk trim have been stripped, and replacement black carpets were installed under current ownership. Appointments include air conditioning, an NRG neochrome shift knob, WeatherTech floor mats, crank windows, and a Pioneer touchscreen infotainment system with Bluetooth connectivity linked to a custom sound system with a BOSS compact subwoofer mounted in the trunk.
The leather-wrapped MOMO steering wheel frames a 170-mph speedometer, a 9k-rpm tachometer, and gauges for coolant temperature and fuel level. A boost gauge and two vacant gauge slots are housed in the aftermarket pod in the center stack. The digital odometer indicates 108k miles, approximately 5k of which were added under current ownership.
The turbocharged 2.0-liter 4G63 inline-four is modified with the following components:
- High-performance air intake
- ETS intercooler
- 3″ turbo-back exhaust
- Walbro 255-lph fuel pump
- Aftermarket boost control solenoid
- JDC coil packs
- Custom ECU tune for 91 pump
The factory catalytic converter has been removed.
Power is routed to all four wheels through a five-speed manual transaxle and an all-wheel-drive system with an Active Center Differential (ACD) and limited-slip front and rear differentials. The clutch was reportedly replaced under previous ownership at approximately 75k miles. The seller notes an occasional grind while shifting into fifth gear at high engine speeds.
The Carfax report is free of accidents and other reported damage. At least one open recall is noted.
The car cannot pass a California emissions test in its current configuration, and it cannot be sold to an in-state private-party buyer.
