EVENT: Tokyo Auto Salon 2016 Part 5 – Subaru’s, Mitsubishis, BRZ’s and GT-86’s

In today’s post we’re going to have a look at the Subarus, Mitsubishis and the Toyobarus. And there were surprising many Subarus. And Unsurprisingly a ton of the BRZ’s and GT-86. But Lets start with Mitsubishi. I only saw three of them, but indeed two of the coolest ones. First Worlds fastest Evo, the incredible Garage G-Force / Voltex Time Attack Monster. P1160679

Next was the rarely-seen, but one of my all time favourite JDM cars. The legendary PitroadM Mitsubishi GTO. A real Horsepower-monster and even cooler because the GTO is somehow a bit underrated and rarely touched.

The third one beeing an EvoX in the Hasepro booth:
P1160417

Now on with the Subarus. Subaru itself had a nice selection of concepts on display. My favourite beeing the supernice BRZ STi Concept: P1160494

Wich was standing next to the BRZ SuperGT Racecar:

They also had a WRX VA rallye concept on display, built by SYMS i guess:

Speeking of racecars Mr. Arai himself (Rallye legend) drove his new WRX VA car for some showlaps and drifts in the Outside area:
