It wouldn't surprise me if the US got an Evo like the GT-A which you can get with no wing, a small wing, or the regular tall wing. Never know...there may be Evo's cruising the streets of the US next year with NO wing AND those ugly clear altezza taillights that are on the GT-A I hope not though...here is the link to pics of the GT-A:

I drive an S2000 or 944 or F250 or R6 Yami. The wife needs sumthing to haul kids back and forth to school in and she doesn't like my other vehicles.

get her a minivan. but wait, what a yami? Am I a retard for not knowing what that is? anyways, the Evo is a higher performance car than any of those. (except for that yami, I don't know what that is, I might have just said something stupid.) buy the evo for yourself. She isn't going to like the rough suspension, or the transmission feel. She isn't going to like they way the car sounds like you dropped a sack of typewriters every time you go over a pothole. The evo is a performance enthusiasts car. ITs very bare bones. You might want to think of a WRX or something, those are more refined. Less of a performance car, but from what I've heard, Evos require a special breed of people that are willing to sacrifice comfort for being able to beat just about any car on the road.

I would NEVER get a minivan or a Excursion/Explorer/Suburban/... I have to drive it too and I refuse to drive a bus.

oops, I updated my reply, and you didn't see the rest of it. I'll just let you read it. But for 25-30 grand, you can get her something more comfortable. It sound like this car is going to be sort of a grocery-getter/errand runner. An evo would have had to have done something pretty evil in a past life to be resigned to a fate like that.

I have always been way into stuff with motors and my wife really doesn't care what kind of car it is but I do. So for the times I drive it through the mountains of New Mexico, I want it to fly. Actually anytime I drive anything I want it to fly. Her current car is a regular old grocery getter and I complain everytime I get in it. So EVO here I come.
I was originally going to trade the S2k for the EVO. It was the wifes idea to keep the Honda and replace her car with the EVO.

oh, ok. So I was being stupid about the Yami. Dang. Well, I guess the Evo has better performance than any of those cars except the Yami. OH, and people, don't rag on the 2000. Those are actually pretty damn nice cars. Have any of you actually driven one? THey are pretty damn fun to drive, and they have pretty luxurius interiors. The performance is nothing to the Evo, but the s2000 is still a damn nice car for what honda meant for it to be.

I like the S2000 ok it's Honda(the company) I don't like. I won't bore you with all the details but my experience with Honda(the company) over this car has not been a happy one. This is the last Honda I will buy. My S2k has 35k miles on it. It has Spoon header/exhasut, spoon wheels/lugs, Spoon 'X' brace, Goodridge brakelines, and K&N
Here it is
