Anyone else actually in Korea?

I know of one other evo owner in Korea? Anyone on else? I only been here a little over a week, been out and about but haven't really noticed anything but stares and stuff. I call Sun Auto in Seoul to see what they have - which is nothing for us. I also asked about a dyno - again, nothing. Anyone?

mump - there is an awd dyno in kangnam. the store is called peak. website peakpoint.co.kr. they are always working on high end cars. i was there the other day and saw 4 porshes a brand new us spec vw gti, and a ferrari. some guys have seen lambos and stuff there. dyno time is 200 bucks. its the only awd in korea from what i hear. when it warms up a little more alot of cars meet up at namsam tower. (seoul tower) and alot more drive the mountain (hill) road out at yumyong mountain just northeast of seoul. kind of a drive from osan though.
send a pm if you need my cell number for some more info on some of this stuff.

I am currently in Korea for another 10 months. Im in the Airforce stationed at Osan AFB. My evo is currently in California. IF you live close to OSan let me know I would give anything to get a passenger ride.

if you referring to me, yes it is usually parked at the front gate - don't be afraid to wave me down for a ride, beats taking a taxi.

evo is doing great here. miles per gallon sitting in traffic sucks though, but the 98 octane is a beautiful thing.
