In Malaysia, the Evo II was sold as the Proton Wira. Essentially what Proton did was put a underperforming 4G13 engine and sold it as an everyday car. But since the Wira is only a re-badged Evo II with an inferior engine it wasn't long before Malaysian car enthusiast started swapping the 4G13 engine with the 4G63 and suddenly you got yourself an Evo II for cheap. Currently a used Proton Wira can be found for as lower than $1090 so one does not have to spend so much money on it.
@@MrDengo999 Well they can't give him the stolen car back. And the value of that car would be appraised very low in Japan because they incentivize to buy new.

The evo 2's factory 16g turbo is the best 16g turbo that you can buy. Great factory turbo that makes great power for what it is. This car is really cool and definitely worth purchasing.

Fun fact: The Evo was based off the Mitsubishi Lancer econobox. Malaysian manufacturer Proton rebadged it as the Proton Wira, a car for Malaysian peasants (like me, being a peasant isn't always a bad thing okay). Wira means "hero" in Malay language. It too had its own hot version called the 1.8 EXi. While not being powered by the 4G63, and only made around 140hp, it was incredibly light, and even Michael Schumacher drove one to a top speed of 236 km/h. 236 km/h with a 140hp car. It was basically Proton's version of the Evo, a Malaysian Evo, built in good old Tanah Melayu. (I'm a Malay if you couldn't already tell.) Evo II is really fire though.
@@shaeif_Shirouthe sembilu one was technically an evo iii hiding under a wira body . 4g63t with awd system directly taken from evo iii too. And never made it to the local market. What a shame.
@@shaeif_Shirou boleh je. Tapi, nak produce sebuah kereta performance dengan chassis kereta family biasa sangat susah untuk proton waktu itu yang baru 10 tahun lebih ditubuhkan. Nak rebadge evo iii bukan sekadar tepek enjin dengan awd lepastu terus jual. Kena reengineer banyak benda semula supaya wira sembilu betul2 jadi kereta yang tahan lasak dan sama karakter macam evo iii. Silap reengineering sikit boleh jadi masalah besar untuk bakal pemilik dan nama proton sendiri yang baru nak rancak dalam market malaysia waktu tu. Kos pun akan jadi sangat tinggi untuk kerja2 reengineering sebab karakter wira dan evo iii sangat jauh beza. Lepastu harga wira sembilu pun akan jadi sangat tinggi sebab kerja2 tadi. Masatu pula demand rakyat sekadar kearah kereta biasa sahaja.
