I've been through there a couple times on leave and never see any evo's...It's been about a year since i went there so maybe 1 or 2 pcs'd in but the outlook is not so good....Aviano doesn't really have a car scene at all, the roads are great to drive through the mountains but the surrounding area is all about the motorcycles. Hopefully you find some guys to hang with though and atleast you can plan some weekend trips to the ring

Hi I,m Nicola and I live in Italy, you are welcome in Aviano.
When you are here , send me a PM so I can give you the links of the Italian evoclub .
The place where you are going is nice for mountings road very beautiful to drive on evo, also around the Aviano base , each year there is a rally gravel race, (I did that race a couple of time).
Ciao

Ill be in Naples, italy soon. I should be transferring there early next year as soon as i get back from Iraq. i sold my evo ix gsr before i left, but i was either going to buy another ix MR, or possibly the new X, but there seems to be a lot problems with the X like stuttering, weak clutch that cant hold more than 350lbs tq.

NICO, Is there a reasonably good place to buy an evo in italy, this way i wont have to pay the huge sales tax over here in the states? Also, im looking forward to attending the WRC. i attended in 05 and 06, and cant wait for more. Also. what part of Italy are you at? and are there any good rally schools?

If Italy is like Germany, then you won't be able to bring a Euro Spec car to the US. Plus with the euro exchnage rate you will not realize any benefits to buying in Italy. Best bet is to buy in the states in enjoy it in Italy.
