Default Help ID-ing Car

Heh. So I thought my gf was kind of loopy when she said he old car had some real punch when she dropped the pedal.

"What kind of car was it?"

Her: "A really pretty Mitsubishi. It had a spoiler and a V8."

"I don't think it have a V8, honey. Though it might have been a big six or a turbo car. What color was it?"

Her: "Cream. Are you sure it wasn't a V8? I could swear it was a V8."

"Pretty sure. What did the salesman say about it?"

Her: "That there were only a few like it because it was a special order. It didn't look like the others. The man who ordered it backed out right before delivery and it was stuck on the lot. I played the price game and got them down over $10,000."

etc, etc.....

So to make a long story short, I'm trying to figure out just what the car was. I am PRETTY sure after talking to her that it was some sort of Lancer Evo in the prior bodystyle. It also seems likely that it was a one-off option car judging by her statements. Since I have no knowledge of these cars, can someone help fill the gap and figure out what the car was? Pics would help. She seems to think it had a flatter rear than most Evos I showed her online.

Kinda curious what she was driving because it doesn't sound like a standard car off the lot. Now I need to know to satiate my curiosity.

Yes, she's blonde. She's also French. Her fav part about the car was the leopard print fluffy steering wheel cover she put on. She's cute as hell, so it's ok.
