The pinnacle Mitsubishi vehicle has always been the Lancer Evolution but in my opinion this street-legal pocket rocket has been losing it’s character for the past couple of years.

I just realized that I didn’t post a single proper pic of the awesome DJ booth/platform that the g Hotel custom made for me for last weekend’s pool party.
