LHD MOD with AWD else it is Import MOD to LHD
that is the tailight Lancer Evo used in Japan and the Evolution mark on the trunk.
Recargo sprot seat
for the first picture you can see the body is the Japan type, which has the wide body on fron fender and rear quarter panel & door
on last picture you can see the AWD diff. on the lower.

4 thumb up with me (2 hand thumb and 2 toe thumb)

Too bad it has the symbol. It tells us that it's the euro spec version, they are test driving. Well the good news is that it's probably going to be released soon. I was hopeing that it has the silver badge so i know my car is going to have recarios. For some reason i think it's coming this summer and they are keeping it a secret until the last minute to beat the sti to the punch real early.

did you check the link i gave to you, go all the way down to the bottom you will see a JDM lancer with mark on it.

People can add the mark any time they like, so it is no big deal of it.

That's on the 405 freeway; that's where I live. Man I drive down there everyday, that's why I was shocked to see this. It really is an Evo, amazing. Nice find RaX

Looks very much Jap Spec LHD RS to me. It has recaros (look at the decal in the rear window), the same rims, no Rear Wiper. But hmm...interesting, why in Michigan? Maybe its someone who bought it legally and had it imported and might not be Mitsu's.

So it is in Michigan then? The plates do look like MI plates.

Although some of the trees look like palm trees...maybe?

MOST OF THE TIME (w/ few exceptions)
when manufacturers (american, european, japan...etc) tests their cars in the US they use michigan plates (detroit - motor city or something like that prolly)

It seems like the plates are manufacturers plates.
