Why can't you get your money back?

After reading this I called E.I. and inquired about the Evo VII since it would be kind of nice to have one if they could get them legalized. He (Adam) told me 10-12 weeks and I could have one driving on the road. I inquired if all the legalization had been done so that I could get going without a hitch and he said, "I am driving one right now," and that everything has been done already. He even said there was one in Indiana (where I live) and that it is just a matter of picking my color and miles. Needless to say that sounds fishy. He also said he had NO CARS IN STOCK, which makes me fear for you guys. Have any of you actually seen your cars recently? What would you think about this?

That sounds ULTRA fishy there, especially considering what he's told you all.

They seem pretty fishy when it comes to the EVOs but how are they with the ITRs?

Sorry not real up to date on this situation with the EVO7's, I was just wondering what is so good about the EVO7 that's worth not buying an EVO8.

peace

The only reason I prefer the EVO 7 is the looks.

They bought the Evo 7s wayyy before Evo 8s were released. Way back in the days that no one even had a clue what the 8s looked like.

The 7 has the AYC/ACD drivetrain, a bit more power, and is lighter.

http://www.nhtsa.dot.gov/cars/rules/...LIG012703.html[/url]). It says:You'll find there is only one entry in that list with the (RHD) notation, and it isn't for a Mazda RX-7.

I have a simple and quick question. I got a WRX 2002 model (US version), I want to convert it into right-hand-drive(JDM), because it looks unique on the street. Do you think it is still legal to drive on the street?
Because Evolution Imports can help me to do that!

Question Evo VII from Evolution Imports

Wondering if anyone in the US has had any luck with importing an evo from Evolution Imports. I am very interested, but not sure on the dependability, and legal problems I may have when it gets here. Any advice would be great. Thanx
