Once Upon A Time, They Made Bad Ass Cars

10 of the Best Mitsubishi Models Ever Made

Galant VR-4
  • Years: 1988-2002
  • Galant boasts a 45-year long production run and it’s recently been relaunched. Galant VR-4 which was the performance-oriented version of then mid-size sedan, on the other hand, didn’t have that long of a lifespan. Graced with mandatory all-wheel drive and twin-turbocharged 2.0L V6 developing up to 237 horsepower, Galant VR-4 was able to top 140 mph and sprint to 60 in 6.5 seconds. Still more than respectable figures for a mid-size sedan. Although surviving until the 2002, Galant’s best years were between ’88 and ’92 when first-gen Lancer Evolution rolled of Mitsubishi’s assembly lines overshadowing all other Mitsu’s performance vehicles in the process including Galant.
Lancer Evolution VI (Tommi Mäkinen Edition)
  • Year: 1999
  • Tommi Mäkinen is the four time WRC champion between 1996 and 1999 with the Lancer Evolution. Needless to say, he has at least deserved to get his very own special edition of the Lancer. Interesting feat is that he’s won all four championships with four different Lancer Evos – III, IV, V and VI. Mäkinen’s special edition Lancer Evo VI came with unique red paint and decals, special Recaro black and red seats, 17-inch white Enkei wheels and a number of performance tweaks like the lowered stance or a quicker steering ratio. Apart from that, it was basically the same 276-horsepower (gentlemen’s agreement) 2.0L turbo four Lancer with 275 lb-ft of torque at tap. It was also able to sprint to 60 in just 4.5 seconds, so no arguing about its potency.
3000GT VR-4
  • Years: 1990-2001
  • 3000GT or simply GTO was arguably the best of all Mitsubishi models ever produced. Sports car is still an expensive second hand affair, even 15 years after its discontinuation. 3000GT VR-4 was the ultimate version of what’s one of the best sports car that had come from across the Pacific. Twin-turbo V6 pushing 296 or 320 horsepower depending on generation was accompanied by all-wheel drive and an active rear spoiler. It was truly a magnificent piece of engineering and design, and will remain remembered for decades to come. So, next time you decide to go on with Mitsubishi dissing, do keep in mind what they were once capable of.

The New Leader For Play Of The Year Goes Is

American Fan Makes Putt Rory McIlroy Couldn't, Rakes in $100

The every-fan's dream of competing with PGA Tour players came true at the Ryder Cup Thursday morning.

Rory McIlroy and Andy Sullivan continued to miss a putt on the 6th green during a practice round and, according to the PGA Tour's Ben Everill, Henrik Stenson brought out a heckler named David Johnson from the gallery who claimed he could get the job done.

With a fresh $100 bill from Justin Rose sitting next to his ball, Johnson said "Home soil, right?" A few seconds later he took a run at the 12-footer…and cashed it, to the delight of thousands of spectators. Check out the awesome video of the putt below.
