hmmmm.
Just a quick check - from another importer $55,857.46 delivered at your feet.
+Shipping cost + all the legals 3.5K
+Compliance 3K
ok, a little more than I expected, but this price was from a specialsed Jap exporter in Japan. I'm sure if you went for a trip you could find one cheaper .....

(unless you are offloading a bit of 'cash' on a holiday 
)That 55.8K would of course also depend on the yen's situation at the time of your purchase, and it's been falling lately. I'm a little bit surprised that
are bringing the Evo in for the price they are - I expected another 3K minimum.

Disappointing news: Unlikely to see my Evo until next week. They are still fitting them out with their radios and Oz spec gear. Slim chance for late this week, but probably next.

Is that what your dealer is telling you Evo8DownUnder, why did they tell you this week if it wasnt going to be this week and if it wasnt there fault then where does it start, what level??????? That is my question. Does anyone know whats going on??????? 
This week it was 30 car next week its no cars, now its 50 cars WTF!!!!!
Are you not going to be pissed with them if it doesnt come next week as well.

I'm confident it will be next week - i'm not as pissed off as you are mate!
btw, the tyres issue isn't something I think about - i'm quiet confident Mitsu will have put tyres on the car that are up to the job. I was expecting Pirellis though.
