Handling is enhanced since the chassis now sits 30 mm lower down because of the brand new Eibach springs and Bilstein shocks. The FQ wears stylish new 18 inch lightweight alloys covered with very sticky Toyo Proxes R1R tires. The wheel and tire package houses the six piston Alcon/Mitsubishi brake calipers and extra-large drilled rotors. Probably the most interesting things is the fact that unlike the flappy paddled FQ 330, the 400 Hewlett packard hot-fishing rod EVO includes a clutch pedal. Once the Europe only Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution FQ 400 hits shops, count on paying around ?49,999. Even at this cost, the FQ 400 provides an outstanding performance/dollar ratio, something which the majority of the super cars available cannot. Well, with bonnet scoops, graphite trim along with a bodykit, the brand new FQ-400 certainly will get observed. It's immense road presence ? along with a burbling, popping exhaust note to complement. Release all the Evo?s 403bhp and you?d had better be ready. In the beginning the turbo lag leads to a marked insufficient acceleration, but because the revs rise the same is true the immense surge in pace. Regrettably, purchasers still need to endure a gearbox offering only five ratios along with a lengthy-throw change. Making smooth changes isn?t easy ? rival performance designs include more accomplished transmissions. Fortunately, the firm?s chassis know-how means staggering efficiency in corners. In the beginning the sunshine steering doesn?t inspire confidence, but decreased suspension combined having a 20mm-wider track provides easy mix-country pace. Add the capabilities from the Super-All Wheel Control (S-AWC) four-wheel-drive system and also the FQ-400 gives real confidence. Despite a remarkably soft pedal feel, the upgraded brakes are strong, assisted through the super-grippy Toyo tyres. Much more impressive may be the quality of ride, which isn?t irritatingly stiff. Just the FQ-400?s cost will wipe the smile off the face ? at ?49,999, it?s ?10,000 a lot more than the FQ-360. It will require a genuine Evo fanatic to pay for that!
