Thanks. Yup it's a USDM. I would have preffered a non-USDM 8 but that was the only one available. Got it from a grey market importer. Citimotors must be kidding to sell them for 3+ even if it comes with a 3 year warranty. You'd end up having problems because the mechanics dont have much hands on experience with the car and I've heard of horror stories of original parts being swapped with inferior ones.

The Evo 7's over at PI are left hand drive? Were they converted from the right side, I thought the 7's were only right hand drives.

LHD Brand new, not converted. Nope, the Evo 7 RS2 has LHD versions, those are the versions sold here

I havnt heard of a single Evo owner getting his car serviced at Citimotors even if may warranty yan. Im sure majority of the mechanics there knows nuthing about Evos. Evo owners here visit performance shops to get their Evos tuned. Where do u go?

A friend's friend's Evo was victimized. He called up management and demanded his parts back cause he knew that his car was tampered with even if simple oil change lang through "feel" alone. I know the part owner of Citimotors (Peter de Luna, I think) has his V or VI serviced there. Kaso na lang I dont think any of the mechanics will **** around with his car. So far I've racked in 4,500miles and yet to decide where. My bro insists we have it done at ERL.

Heard about the Evo that was carjacked in GH? Di pa uso noon yung immobilizer.

Mga pare.. I've been thinking, where can I find used Evos in the PI? Is there an online dealership that I can check out? I'm planning on owning one of the older Evos out there. So if you guys have resources, let me know and hope to find a used Evo the next time I come back to visit!
