i say not worth it. too much issues, hard finding parts in the states, or find anyone who knows how to fix it right if something goes wrong.

Also, how the hell are you going to insure that?

that's not the only thing wrong with it.
1. it is worth it
2. aint that hard just have to have *****, know the right peeps and the number one issue $$$$
3. not hard to find parts... we have the evo 8 here and you can get evo 1-8 parts around any corner in the USA
4. do you own work? lol
5. you insure it by appraised value or a set payment plan that you setup with insurance company.

Good for rally and racing. go to the Asian Forums on here and get info from some Philippine Evo owners.
dont assume man. if he is a resident outside the USA and comes to the USA and brings the car with him he doesnt need to worry about registering it and titling it is very very simple the hardest part is waitin in line lol

have *****? I don't think this is something to do with your *****.

It's an investment and it should be treated like an investment.

If you're just going to drive it around with it and not make any money off of it, because of the rarity of the car, then how is this worth it?

there are a lot more cars out there used at that price that could do that job.

I guess you could do your own work, but parts will be hard to find.

yeh, if you have the money, why the hell not. But if you don't have the parts, you'll have hard time finding some of the parts and even if you do find it you'll be waiting for weeks until it gets here from hong kong or australia.

1. its all about ***** trust me. honestly how many times have u looked into import a car?
2. yes it is an investment a very expensive one.
3. thats what cars are mad to do i would import a evo 5 to drive it daily y would i import a car that i love and obsess about and sell it for hight dollar?
4. i dont think you understand a lot of love that people have for the evolution series (especially me)
5. parts are not hard to find i think i would know more then you because i have built 2 evo conversions. give me an example for parts that would b hard to get.
