For all you Jackie Chan and Mitsubishi Evo fans..

You can get your very own Evo IX Jackie Chan Edition!

Jackie Chan Special Edition Mitsu Evo IX

Unlike the rumored P. Diddy edition Ranger Rover that never got anywhere, the Jackie Chan edition Mitsubishi Evo IX is all business. If you are die-hard Jackie fan, you might already know the close relationship between Mitsu Motor and the martial arts action star as all the cars in his earlier movies were supplied by the Japanese firm. Today, even though that contract is long over, Jackie is still a big Mitsu fan and likes to drive around Hong Kong in his one of a kind FireSports Evo XIII MR made just for him. A few month back in Singapore, he unveiled the Jackie Chen Special Edition Evo IX that he developed with FireSports. A total of 50 of these special Evos will be available worldwide at a hefty $77,193 a piece.

hehe... technically, there is no drunken monkey in Chinese Martial Arts... there's Drunken Fist and Monkey style... they're two separate things.

He was driving an EVO in "Who am I", I don't remember what version. In Thunderbolt, he was driving a Mitsubishi GTO.

In pretty much all of Jackie Chan's movies all the cars he drives are Mitsubishi's.

in 'Who Am I' he first drove a Mitsu Pajero through the desert, and later got a ride in a Ver5 Evo evading some Bimmers. some good driving in the Evo, but should have been more

nice JC Evo

same here, if you ever get a hold of it, we are having a slumber party so i can watch too.


wonder what the specs are on that car, but as we all know the whole purpose of that car is for collectors. wish i had money to throw down on a car like that, actually i think i rather get the 22b

^^^true. for $77k, there's a lot of choices to choose from.
