i think doing anything to a lancer is a waste of time and money

 

because the evo wagon is still an evo but with some more practicality...

and the new sti looks like a ford focus

 

For the price to modify the sti to get anywhere near 500whp, you can build the evo wagon with 500whp and still carry more luggage/groceries in the back.

 

that would make a hell of a grocery getter

 

From what I understand, Subaru went with a 5 door layout for WRC.

 

If I had a wrecked evo I would definitely consider looking for a nice sportback and doing this. The ultimate sleeper. From the looks of it, the bumper and quarters are the parts that would be hard to get. Funny, looking for a pic if the rear i noticed this sportback has a US size plate. When I mounted my JDM rear, I had to alter the license plate bracket to mount my plate. I wonder if there is a factory bracket available for a us size plate on a JDM bumper.Hmmmm.

 

I thought of doing this to the wifes wagon also .just to much $$$$$ . Dont see many around sacromento I looked for ever to find here one I hate to admite it but I like It and I drive an 03 evo go figure.

 

eh i cant bring myself to liking the wagons maybe if i drink a lil

 

I have always wanted to bring an old thread back to life.

 

i don't like the evo wagon. ugly. i would actually go with a subie wagon before an evo wagon based on looks alone.

it would be the wifes ride anyway, not mine.

 

Afraid your wife may have a faster ride than you?

 

I puked in my mouth and swallowed it when i saw that. But on a serious note, this is new to me... i wonder how it handles?

 

My bad, just saw the link to the review on the first page
I think would consider cutting one of those up to make it look like an evo, not the other way round

 

i WOULD BUY IT.............. FOR MY WIFE!!

 

I think about this swap every month or so. There's one of those yeller wagons in my neighborhood and whenever I see it I start fantasizing ... If I had money to burn it would be such a fun project.

I'd grab one of the Evo IXs I keep reading about on this forum; you know, the ones that just suddenly leap off the road and hit a tree FOR NO REASON, and make the switch ... it would be such the awesome sleeper.
