but lets be realistic, there's only a couple parts near your city when you can really open it up in 6th pushing 120mph+

Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution V
While being one of the most succesful rally cars of the last decade, the Lancer Evo V was produced for only 1 year starting in early 1998, for a total run of 6000 street-cars. On top of what the previous Lancer had to offer, the V has a larger radiator, a shorter intake manifold, new conrods/pistons, a different turbocharger as well as a much larger intercooler below the front bumper and new engine management system. The suspension was redesigned with new mounting points and larger 225/45ZR17 tires plus an adjustable spoiler with 4 available positions were fitted. Braking was also improved, the major differences being the larger 320mm (12.6 inch) rotors with Brembo 4 pot aluminum calipers up front and 290mm (11.4 inch) units with 2 pots in the back. Like all Evos, all four wheels receive power, which is split 50/50 front/rear through a central viscous coupler. In the end, the V provides a better package than the IV, an already excellent car, in every respect. It produces more torque (and possibly horsepower, but not on paper), stops better and provides more neutral handling with perhaps slight oversteer. Impersonating Tommi Makkinen has never been this easy!
