What moves the price on this model
Condition, history, originality, ownership, delivery and modification multipliers apply to every car in the library. They are applied automatically when an advertisement is analysed, and the schedule is set out once, on the analyser page.
Projected value in five years
The case for and against
Australia's official run jumped from the Evolution VI Tommi Makinen straight to the VIII, so the VII is the generation this market never had. It introduced the active centre differential and is the cheapest way into the CT9A shell.
Reported as the only Evolution generation moving strongly, on a three-sale sample. The GT-A automatic sits in the same body at much less money and drags every comparable set it touches.
Known faults and risks
Similar cars, and what they cost to run
Mitsubishi Australia's official run went Evolution VI Tommi Makinen in 2001, then straight to the Evolution VIII in 2004. Every Australian VII is therefore a private import, arriving either under the fifteen-year rule or through SEVS, and the cars here were chosen rather than sold.

Mitsubishi also built a five-speed automatic GT-A in the same shell with the same badges. It is a materially cheaper car and it turns up in Australian classifieds described simply as an Evolution VII. Any comparable set built without separating them will read low, and the reported strength in this model - plus fifty-two per cent, the only Evolution generation showing a strong positive - rests on three sales and is exactly the sample size where one GT-A rewrites the answer.
The paragraph above says a set built without separating the GT-A will read low and that one GT-A rewrites the answer at this sample size, and the $19,000 December 2021 car was a GT-A automatic being counted as an ordinary comparable. It now carries the canonical exclusion.
$23,002 in February 2025 with no odometer published, and $35,000 in July 2025 at 77,095 kilometres. They rise, but across five months rather than four years, and the reported strength in this generation of plus fifty-two per cent was measured with the GT-A at the bottom of the run and should be read as unsupported until a third GSR result arrives.
And is held on the placement argument alone: the VI GSR at $28,800 and the VIII MR at $43,000, with the VII between them. That is a weaker defence than this record carried yesterday and it is written here so it is not mistaken for a measured number. The placement is corroborated by the library either side of it: the VI GSR at $28,800 and the VIII MR at $43,000, with the VII between them where the results put it.

The evidence on this model is thin and the report says so on its cover. Read a complete one on a real car first. Seventeen sections, no account, nothing to pay.
One line of email when this desk publishes a call on a Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VII GSR, or records a new Australian sale of one. Nothing else, no schedule, and on a quiet model you may hear nothing for months, which is itself worth knowing about a car you are chasing.
