"The seventh generation Lancer Evolution in as many years, the VI GSR is a machine that benefits from the development that Mitsubishi has been pouring into it—development that comes not only from the street, but directly from the rally stage. As a homologation vehicle for World Rally Championship racing, the VI GSR wears many rally technologies, and not just under the skin, but outside as well. The revised aerodynamic package benefits both the competition and road cars, for example, as does the development to the drivetrain. The VI GSR boats a lower center of gravity, a new turbocharger that is more efficient, new engine management, larger brakes, and unique new wheels. All these things mean that the Evo is more of a supercar than ever, able to hit 60 mph in just 4.4 seconds, which is not bad considering the humble Lancer that it is based on."—Official description[1]
The 1999 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI GSR - abbreviated as "Lancer GSR '99" - is an all-wheel drive sport compact by Mitsubishi.
It appears in all main series titles.
It appears as standard in all releases, with the exceptions of Forza Horizon 2 Presents Fast & Furious and Forza Street, and in Forza Horizon 4 as part of the Mitsubishi Motors Car Pack.
Synopsis[]
The Evolution VI was introduced in 1999 as the sixth iteration of the Lancer Evolution, a series of turbocharged AWD cars that replaced the 1992 Galant VR-4 for the World Rally Championship (WRC) series. It was the last model to be based on the sixth generation Mitsubishi Lancer platform, with its earliest adopter being the 1996 Evolution IV.
The Evolution VI received an improved cooling system and increased durability for its 4G63T engine, which has been along with the Evolution series since its inception. Its bodywork was also slightly altered, but remained similar to the Evolution V.
In celebration of Tommi Mäkinen fourth consecutive driver title, whom piloted an Evolution VI in the 1999 WRC season, its standard RS base model and the GSR trim levels were also available as special Tommi Mäkinen Edition (TME) models.[2]
After ending production in 2001, the Evolution VI was replaced by the Evolution VII, which itself was replaced by the Evolution VIII in 2003.

Trivia[]

- It can be fitted with Mitsubishi Street Bumpers from the TME model series, and rally body Street upgrades since Forza Horizon. There are also aftermarket Street Aero upgrades available for the car from JUN, Sarona and Varis.
- Its front bumper lacks the standard fog lights from the real life Evolution VI GSR, as its fog light covers were only fitted to RS models.[3]
- It is featured in the Forzathon Weekly Challenge "Challenge Of Our Rival" in Forza Horizon 4.
