Throughout this blog, we, ISYSCARS, will entertain and educate you with a breathtaking range of not only the fastest but most stunning cars you have will have ever seen. We have specifically categorised many worldwide known cars and our blog will consist of a variety of Japanese, European and American cars. Our idea is to make it easy to view a car, model or even country of the car! The list of cars will be on the right-hand side of the blog so you can easily click on the car of interest. This will enable you to view its page where you can see all our thoughts and expressions of the car with of course a selection of exquisite pictures to aid you with our text. Here is a taste of what is yet to come:
I know what you are thinking. I've seen this car everywhere on the roads-it's just another lancer. But no- this is no ordinary lancer. I think that if you take the time to read what makes the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution different- you'll see that this car is deceiving both on the outside and inside. But beware- the awesomeness of this car might just take over you.
I think that by now you should be tempted into buying this car just from its sheer sporty look and mouth-dropping exterior right? So what is the Mitsubishi Lancer evolution?Well, I'll tell you more.
The Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution, also known as the Evo, is a high-performance sports car manufactured by Mitsubishi Motors that is based on the Lancer. There have been ten official versions to date, and the designation of each model is most commonly a roman numeral. All use two litre, turbocharged engines and all-wheel drive systems.
The Evolution was originally intended only for Japanese markets, but demand on the "grey import" market led the Evolution series to be offered through Ralliart dealer networks in the United Kingdom and in various European markets from around 1998. Mitsubishi decided to export the eighth generation Evolution to the United States in 2003 after witnessing the success Subaru had in that market with their long-time direct rival, the Subaru Impreza WRX.
I think that the driving features of the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution are simply incredible. Why? Well, first of all the S-AWC system is made up of 4 independent systems working together and operated via the vehicle’s ECU to give you handling that defies belief. The Active Centre Differential works in three modes – tarmac, gravel and snow – to enable quicker control response for changes in road surfaces. Active Stability Control automatically recognises under steer and over steer and applies brakes to the appropriate wheels and the Super Active Yaw Control distributes torque between the rear wheels. To give you complete confidence in all situations, the Lancer Evolution also features Sports ABS with Electronic Brakeforce Distribution. I think that if you still don't believe me- then watch this video and see for yourself!!!
I can't believe how much more power and torque the Evo has compared to normal lancers. It's just insane! Bury the pedal and 366Nm of torque rears up and hurls you toward the imminent horizon in the blink of an eye. Cast from aluminium, the turbocharged MIVEC Engine produces 217kW@6500rpm. The turbocharger features a titanium turbine wheel which delivers an improvement of up to 18% in response time at lower revs. Changes have also been made to the MIVEC system. It now utilises a direct-acting valve-train for additional weight reduction and optimal power, and also operates on both the intake and exhaust valves for optimum engine efficiency.
Yep I know- how beautiful are these calipers? I think that if you drive with these spinning around you'll be turning heads all over the streets. With over 30 years of racing competition experience, Brembo is the only brand worthy to feature on the Evolution. To reign in the power of the Evolution, the front sports 350mm ventilated discs with 4-piston callipers, while the rear houses 330mm discs with opposed 2-piston callipers. Braking is enhanced even further for the Evolution MR with 350mm ventilated 2 piece constructed rotors at the front to reduce weight. The size of the brakes not only brings an increase in performance, the ventilated discs allow heat to be dispersed quickly to reduce braking fade.
With all this incredible performance in mind, the question becomes is it safe? I think so, and if you read the safety specs below I'm sure you'll agree.
DURABLE PLATFORM
(Source: http://www.mitsubishi-motors.com.au/image-resize/made/uploads/vehicles/lancer-evolution/2013/safety/lancer-mechanical-safety-rise-body-fr_810_375_90_c1.jpg) I think that the construction of the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution is nothing short of quality. Stamped from a single piece of steel, the Lancer Evolution's chassis is built for the long run. And with engineered flexibility, it helps the suspension do its job. Attached to this impressive foundation are the aluminium roof, hood, front bumper beam and fenders that add strength while minimizing weight. And for better weight distribution, the battery and windshield-washer fluid tank are actually mounted in the trunk area. Overall, this platform is strong, light and balanced - just like a world-class athlete built for speed.
I think that the Evo is not only a very fast car, but a very safe one too- why? Well, This innovative system features six standard airbags (front, front seat-mounted side-impact, and side-curtain), along with a seventh under the driver’s side dash that stabilizes your lower body and knees during certain types of frontal collisions. This is one feature you'll probably never use, but it's nice to know it's there.
Airbags are part of a Supplemental Restraint System (SRS). To decrease the risk of injury from a deploying airbag, always wear your seat belt, sit upright in the middle of the seat and do not lean against the door. Always place children 12 and under in the rear seat and use appropriate child restraints. Never place a rear-facing infant restraint in the front seat.
I think that if any of you readers out there are looking to buy a luxury car, then you must get a Lexus. The lexus is my absolute favourite and matches well if not better than its European rivals including BMW, Mercedes Benz and Audi. Why? Simply because I think that it is the most reliable car out there and offers an unbeatable combination of luxury and sportiness that is just too hard to resist. If you are still not convinced, keep reading and I'm sure you'll change your mind and agree with me.
Lexus is the luxury vehicle division of Japanese automaker Toyota Motor Corporation. First introduced in 1989 in the United States, Lexus is now sold globally and has become Japan's largest-selling make of premium cars. The Lexus marque is marketed in over 70 countries and territories worldwide, and has ranked among the ten largest Japanese global brands in market value. Lexus is headquartered in Nagoya, Japan. Operational centers are located in Brussels,Belgium, and Torrance, California, United States.

You are probably thinking "There are so many models Lexus offers- which one do I get?" Well, I think that you can't go wrong with the Lexus IS 350. If you are a real car enthusiast, you have to try the F Sport Model.
I think that the IS 350's dramatic form and sculpted curves are the result of countless hours spent by Lexus designers to create a vehicle that evokes feelings of excitement and overwhelming desire 350's dramatic form and sculpted curves are the result of countless hours spent by Lexus designers to create a vehicle that evokes feelings of excitement and overwhelming desire. You should watch this video to see how good this car really is!!
I think that the exterior of the IS 350 Sports Luxury certainly lives up to its name with a blend of design features that are at once luxurious and sporty. Fitted with 18 inch five spoke design alloy wheels, each spoke features a strikingly dynamic profile. A Tilt and Slide Electric Glass Moonroof with Sun Shade allows you to bring the outside in, adding a new level of exhilaration to your journey.
INSPIRED BY A SUPERCAR-TO ME, THIS CAR IS THE WHOLE PACKAGE
I undoubtedly agree that the F Sport model takes some of its design cues from Lexus' extraordinary LFA. Distinctive 18 inch F Sport design alloy wheels, inspired by our unique supercar, add to the performance and looks. The exclusive F Sport front bumper and grille enhance the IS 350 F Sport's already striking appearance while the choice of two colours exclusive to the F Sport, White Nova and Flame Blue, will ensure you'll always stand out from the crowd.
IS 350 SPORTING STYLE- How can you not love this car?
I know that every carefully considered element of the IS 350 builds upon its irresistibly fun, sporting feel. The alloy wheels provide a premium finish and signal that this is a vehicle for people who love to drive. The performance credentials of the IS 350 are further highlighted by a dual exhaust system, capped off by the gleam of chrome exhausts, which adds to the audio accompaniment the IS 350 delivers.
A CUSTOMISED DRIVING EXPERIENCE- this is a car for everyone!
I can't believe that in an instant, the IS 350 becomes the vehicle you want it to be, allowing you to create a customised driving experience! With a simple twist of the Drive Mode Select dial on the centre console, you can totally retune the vehicle's personality and performance to your unique preference and the driving conditions. In ECO mode, throttle response, steering, transmission and Lexus Climate Control are optimised for maximum economy and an ECO meter is displayed on the dash.
In NORMAL mode, you'll experience smooth acceleration, the Lexus Climate Control system is reset for comfort and vehicle response is refined. Meanwhile, turn the dial to SPORT/SPORT S mode and the instrumentation display changes from blue to red and the throttle response is more direct.
I strongly believe that after the ground-breaking creation of Lexus' LFA supercar, influences from this one-of-a-kind vehicle have been instilled in the IS 350 F Sport. This includes high technology Thin Film Transistor (TFT) instrumentation, lifted straight out of the LFA, which lets you customise the menu display to suit your unique preferences. Menus slide out on the left side of the central meter to display information including audio settings and trip data in your preferred configuration.
The race-inspired touches don't end there. The seating incorporates a snug recess which grips the body for greater lateral support, while high side bolsters counteract G forces to keep you secure on tight corners. Perforated aluminium pedals and F Sport brushed aluminium scuff plates add sporting flair. The bespoke dimpled premium steering wheel and shift knob with F Sport badging and ornamentation complement the persona.
Strap yourself in. Press start. Feel that roar. That's a twin turbo V6 engine, which produces an incredible 404kW and 628Nm of torque. This makes the GT-R one of the fastest out there. So quick, it accelerates from 0-100km/h in only 2.7 seconds. But don't try this at home.
The 2013 Nissan GT-R Premium Edition takes style to a whole new level with a choice of either two-tone - amber red and black - or all black interiors.
The new amber red and black luxury interior trim option sports hand stitched coloured leather over the front and back seats, armrest, door trim, glove box, park break and gear selector.
Take your Nissan GT-R for a hot lap. Select R Mode and the responsiveness of the gearshift and steering become sharper, the improved traction adds speed.
The transmission shifts the gear ratio into top speed mode, the damping force of the shock absorbers is fixed, and the VDCR maximises the torque distribution in the front and rear. You’ll feel the difference.
As well as creating downforce, the Nissan GT-R’s aerodynamics work to cool the engine, transmission and brakes.
Two flows of air are created: one cools the entire layer above the undercover, the other creates downforce. This keeps you on the road when you should be flying. How cool is that?
It doesn’t matter how fast a car goes. It needs to stay on the road. This is where Premium Midship design challenges convention. Prevailing theory dictates that sports cars need to be light.
However, we actually use the vehicle’s weight as an advantage, rather than a hindrance. This is how the GT-R handles beautifully at very fast speeds.
