Garage 55 proudly presents this exceptional 2005 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IX GT, a genuine JDM icon and one of the rarest and most desirable variants of the legendary Evo IX. Finished in Silver over a Black Recaro interior, imported from Japan and having covered just 70,000 miles, this rust-free, one-owner example represents a rare opportunity to acquire one of the most desirable road-going Evolutions ever produced. Powered by the legendary 2.0 litre turbocharged 4G63 engine and paired with Mitsubishi’s renowned all-wheel drive system, the Evo IX remains one of the most capable and engaging performance cars ever produced. Delivering razor-sharp handling, immense grip and effortless performance, it continues to set the benchmark for rally-bred road cars. What makes this particular example especially desirable is its GT specification. Produced exclusively for the Japanese domestic market in limited numbers, the Evo IX GT is regarded as a true JDM unicorn. Unlike the more common GSR, the GT was equipped with an aluminium roof panel, helping to lower the centre of gravity and reduce weight. It also featured the factory titanium turbocharger found in the MR models, delivering improved response and performance. Compared to the lightweight RS homologation model, the GT retained a more refined and usable specification whilst benefiting from key performance enhancements. This example has clearly been cherished throughout its life. The Silver paintwork presents exceptionally well and remains completely rust free, something increasingly difficult to find on Evolution models today. The overall condition is a testament to careful ownership and Japan’s favourable climate. Inside, the Black Recaro interior remains beautifully preserved and perfectly complements the car’s purposeful character. The cabin retains the driver-focused layout that made the Evolution famous, offering a perfect blend of comfort and motorsport pedigree. The finest performance and collector cars, handpicked for enthusiasts.
