Why 6.2: Twin turbos, AWD, four-wheel steering, active aero — 90s Mitsubishi showing off everything at once. Heavy then, collectible now; the survivors mostly cruise.

The long version
This was never really a corner-carver even when new — nearly 3,800 lbs of active aero, four-wheel steering, and twin turbos meant it excelled at cruising with a spec sheet nobody else could match, not at being thrown around. That original character explains why survivors mostly still cruise rather than track: the ownership behavior didn't have to change much to become 'collector appropriate.' The current owner base skews toward people fascinated by the sheer everything-at-once engineering ambition of the era, treating the car as a rolling museum piece for peak-90s Mitsubishi rather than a driver's tool that got sidelined.
