ok...what did you mean getting a watered down version of the EVOVIII... how can they do it. Cause as far as I know which wouldn't be that much but still by common sense is that Cars come into the country the same way as they are built only that they would have to fit American Standards, right? Like for example having the steering wheel on the left instead of the right. I just full of tha need answers.

 

Audi successfully uses such a layout on the TT.

 

In my opinion all of you pplz should just save up and get the real Evo's..the Evo7 from evolution imports....They are only $36,ooo right now if your lucky enough to get one in time!!!!

 

Option 1 seems silly to me. If you can't swing an EVO then drop 25 grand on a WRX. If you can't swing that then why not a Subaru 2.5RS? Stock-to-stock, the 2.5 would kick the crap out the non-evo Lancer in any measure of performance. Its a real drivers car, not a lame commuter car with a nice set of wheels Like the OZ lancer.

If you must drive a Mitsu, then find a late model GSX. You'll quickly tire of a "poser" Lancer.

 

Whoever made the point:

"What do you think you're going to do? How are you going to get them street legal in the US? You can't just bring over a Japanese car"....etc

What do you think Evolution Imports is doing, eh? Cars will be mod'd to meet US standards. That is absolutely necessary BEFORE customs allows the permit to import a car which can be registered to be driven on the streets. Not rocket science. An obstacle, no doubt, but not rocket science.
