Question So which States have em so far?

I know the Evo's haven't made it across the whole country yet. I've been trying to gauge when my car will get here based upon where the cars were (geographically) appearing last week....

So far (as I can recall) we've heard of Evos in

CA
AZ
NM
UT
TX
Ill
MI
OH

Does anyone know of other states that got Evo's last week?

I don't think they made it any farther eastward than OH last week....

SC~ momentarially frustrated about not having his Evo yet

I think everyone on the east coast feels the same way. Why did the West and Central US get their cars last week, and we did not? Do our cars not come into the same port in CA as all other Evo's? Did they not have enough drivers to piolt the delivery trucks? Did they all sink into the Mississippi river on their way here? I don't get it.

SC~ whos patience has officially worn out.

Yeah I found it to be pretty stupid...since we are the closest to Japan. But after talking with someone at our dealership, they informed me that the car had to be sent to Cali...and then shipped out from there. Makes no sense to me, to send a car across the pacific from Japan to Cali and not just drop it off in Hawaii. Hopefully we get to see it at our upcoming car show. I talked to one of the managers and once it gets off the boat here, it will be modified by Ralliart and have some mods on it. So we wont get any for sale until April or something.

I wonder if people in Hawaii just import their cars from Japan, since it has a close proximity to Japan

Im not sure how long it takes to get to Japan from the mainland US...but it takes about 9-10 hours to get there from Hawaii. So its not that close....I guess in relation to texas or something...Hawaii would be closer....but its not like a 2 hour flight or anything.

No, we cant import cars from Japan either....we have customs and our cops are very strict on our import scene. We have a law called Reconstruction....if the car has rims, drop, tint, exhaust, or any type of modification done to it....it has to pass a reconstruction test. The worse part about this test, its completely up to the inspector to pass you....nothing is really written out to spec. So our state employees (however a bad day they are having) can have their little power trip on you and fail you, if they feel like it.
