heh...theres a BBY for sale right around the block from me for $18,500. has some mods done. i just havnt been a fan of the BBY as opposed to the EB. the EB looks more darker.

 

BBY is the ugliest Evo color.

 

Jelous.

 

lol ya, thats for sure. That's the first time Ive heard it called ugly.

So who wants to call their local Mitsu rep and bug the hell out of them until we get an answer?

 

Not trying to steal the thread... but i find it funny how all CT9A's are the same car.... but certain parts on the exterior make it JDM or EURO! the reason for my thoughts is that i was looking at buying a EURO rear bumper.... and it is the SAME EXACT one as on your EVO

 

Ya, I remember seeing one that was a "FQ400" and its the exact same thing as the JDM rear. I think the important part is just knowing that its a different style from the USDM rear bumper. It would have been nice if our models had come with those bumpers when we bought them instead of having to pay an extra few hundred dollars to get that look.

 

Yellow is much rarer than BBY. I've only seen one yellow in person, and lots of BBYs.

 

ive seen A LOT of yellow evos....

 

Who wants a yellow evo..... I can only see girls who couldn't find their favorite color sunfire driving them

That seems really low only 4500 EVO's a year??? I have also only seen 1 other BBY except mine and he moved, and have only seen 1 yellow. Funny about my car I wasnt even looking to buy a car and wasnt really aware they were selling the EVO in the US it was the first one I had seen and it happened to be BBY and I had to have it.

 

Those #'s are in line w/ what I've heard. Besides "being rare" I've never known anyone who knows how few BBY's ther are though.

But figure if there are 4,500 x 3 years total Evos 8's out there....my guess would be maybe 2k BBY's out of roughly 13-14k at most? That sounds reasonable to me.

I do think it's the most rare color though w/ yellow being next.

 

I know they didnt make BBY in 05 I dont think they did in 04 either, I think just 03.

 

Ya BBY was only 03 they changed to "electric blue"??? i think....
