Just Two Slammed Mitsubishi Lancer EVO Xs Rolling Around


Does every car video have to be about (legal or…illegal) quarter mile runs, drift stunts and strange accidents? Of course not, where's the fun in that?

One nicely directed clip that recently captured our attention on YouTube simply shows two friends in their road-hugging Mitsubishi Lancer Evo X performance sedans going out for a ride with the appropriate music heard in the background.

New Mitsubishi Mirage to be Offered in the States with a Three-Cylinder Engine from Fall 2013


The car that Mitsubishi believes will help it grow again and increase its sales on a global basis and especially in developing markets, the new Mirage, will join the brand's range in the United States next year, but we already knew that.

What a report from Car and Driver adds is that the Japanese carmaker's no-frills sub-compact will be revealed in U.S.-specification at the 2013 New York Auto Show in April, and that it will go on sale in September of the same year.

Now That's One Lucky Son of a Gun – The Middle East Edition


When they're not practicing the illegal and reckless driving art of hagwalah, some motorists in the Middle East hone their skills in another and equally dangerous road sport, that of driving on two wheels.

While our readers have surely seen footage of Middle Eastern drivers tip their rides on their sides before, in this specific video, we witness one of the many, many things that can go wrong when amateurs perform these kind of stunts on public roads.

Watch Real Life Mad Max Terrorize an Australian Driver During an Extreme Road Rage Incident


With all the incidents filmed on Russian roads, (you can head over to Jalopnik for some of the best dashcam clips of 2012 – we're preparing our own list, too), we rarely say this about a road rage incident, but WOW.

There's road rage, there's psychotic and then there's "this windshield ain't going to stop me punching your face" kind of rage, which makes Mad Max and Toecutter look like Care Bears…

We only get to hear and watch one side of the story in this incident as the perpetrator has yet to be interviewed, or captured by the police, for that matter, but here's what went on.

Another Mitsubishi 3000GT Dressed Up as a Ferrari Pops Up on eBay


Well, well, well, imagine that; a second Mitsubishi 3000GT coupe that has been converted to look like a Ferrari F430, though, we must say, we're having trouble seeing the resemblance.

Perhaps we're missing something here, but putting aside the air scoops positioned on top of the rear fenders and to some extent, the door mirrors, the rest of the cosmetic enhancements don't remind us of the F430.

Designed from the ground up to be offered with an advanced hybrid powerplant, the seven-seater 2014 Outlander also underwent an intensive diet losing around 200 pounds (91 kg) compared to the outgoing model.

Watch a Rally Driver Reach Speeds of up to 227km/h – 141MPH in a Forest


Sure Formula 1 and NASCAR drivers reach much higher average speeds than their motorsport counterparts in the World Rally Championship and other rally challenges, but it's one thing racing on a professional circuit with all the safety precautions that come with it, and another to do so on unpaved paths in the wild.

If you are willing to let your ears take some abuse (or just lower down the volume if you don't feel up to the task), you can enjoy a crazy ride in a Mitsubishi EVO IX R4 racer driven by Beppo Harrach at the Waldviertel Rallye in Austria.

Mitsubishi Releases Fresh Videos of New JDM Mirage Subcompact


With the new Mirage set to go on sale in Japan at the end of August, Mitsubishi has already begun a promotional campaign for its subcompact model that will be available exclusively as a five-door hatchback.

Aside from a handful of fresh commercials, which will likely feel a bit odd to those not familiar with the Japanese media, Mitsubishi has also released several new videos detailing the Mirage.

"OMG" Doesn't Even Begin to Describe this Amazing Mitsubishi EVO Rally Save


Carscoop reader Maciej sure captured our attention with his email tip titled "My Hero, OMG!" – and very rightfully so as you will soon discover for yourself.

We don't know how much of the fantastic save is attributed to luck and how much to the driver's talent, but what the man behind the wheel of the Mitsubishi Lancer EVO accomplished during the 21st edition of the Rzeszowski Rally in Poland (August 9 to 11) is not something you see every day.

Mitsubishi Lancer EVO Driver Tumbles Down the Mountain at 2012 Pikes Peak Hill Climb


No one really needs to tell you the dangers of participating in the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb but if you insist, here's proof from a terrifying accident that was captured on film during this weekend's race.

Rookie Pikes Peak driver Jeremy Foley and his co-pilot Yuri Kouznetsov were racing their Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution 8 down the hill at around Mile 16 when they took a corner too fast and too open with the car sliding on the gravel before it tumbled down the mountain.

Near Miss for One Motorcyclist, Direct Hit for Another


Sometimes you get lucky, sometimes you don't. In the first video we see the rider of a BMW R1200 GS cruising on the road somewhere in the States (we couldn't pinpoint the location) when the driver of a Mitsubishi Eclipse coupe makes a completely unnecessary wide turn just missing the bike by inches.

The shaken BMW motorcyclist then turns around, catches up with the female driver of the Eclipse, and asks her if she learned her lesson, to which she replies "yes, I did" and apologizes.
