About the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI #2 Y. Kataoka / S. Hayashi Winner Rally Canberra 1999 AUTOart 1:18

TL;DR: AUTOart's 1:18 diecast Lancer Evolution VI reproduces Kataoka and Hayashi's Rally Canberra 1999 winning car. Rally-specific detail including auxiliary lamps and mud flaps sits on a diecast body finished in the era's turbocharged four-wheel-drive rally livery, aimed at collectors of the WRC's Evo generation.

The Evolution VI was the last of Mitsubishi's aerodynamically refined mid-generation Evos before the wider VII body arrived, and it remained a genuine rally contender through 1999.

Rally Detail in Diecast Form

Rally cars carry visual cues road cars never need, and this casting reflects that: auxiliary spot lamps ahead of the grille, mud flaps behind each wheel arch, and a livery layered with sponsor decals across the bonnet and doors. AUTOart's zinc alloy body gives the model a satisfying weight, and the panel gaps around the bonnet and boot stay tight despite the busier bodywork rally cars typically carry compared to circuit racers. The wheels replicate the gravel-spec rally pattern rather than a road wheel, a detail collectors specifically look for when comparing rally diecast across manufacturers. Interior detail stays basic, focused on the roll cage silhouette visible through the glazing rather than fine dashboard texture, which is standard practice at this tier and keeps attention on the exterior presentation that actually tells the story of the win.

Fitting the Evo VI into a Rally Collection

The late-1990s Evo generation sits at a pivot point in WRC history, bridging Group A regulations toward the World Rally Car era, which makes this a useful anchor for a chronological rally display. Set beside a period Subaru Impreza WRC diecast, the rivalry between the two Japanese manufacturers becomes immediately visible on the shelf. At 1:18, the Evo's compact saloon footprint fits standard cabinet spacing easily, and the rally-specific detailing rewards closer inspection more than a plain road car casting would.
