So I've been looking to buy a car for about 5 months now, and everything I want everyone already has here. I'd get something RWD but the winters are terrible here so I 'd love something I can rip around in the snow. I drove my friends EVO II and I loved it, it shredded through gravel and snow like nothing.

I've done some thinking and I want to import an 96 Evo IV into Canada. Seeing as there is next to no people who own one in Canada, it's hard to find anyones opinion about it.

I was just curious what everyone would think, pros, cons? And I was also looking for a good site for older generation evo OEM and aftermarket parts. Thanks yall

 

Check the Canadian forum there is a post about some of the things a guy went through to get a car into Canada not meant for the Canadian market. Then find a good car importer and see if it makes sense dollars-wise.

 

There was an article in the recent Modified Mag about a company that imports RHD vehicles into Canada. I think it's actually called Right Hand Drive Canada. Might need to google them but it appears they are the best for registering and importing JDM cars into the country.

GL.

 

^^^Saw this write up. Looks awesome and def talk to those guys. dont think its near you. (dont know exactly) but worth a phone call if your serious. i think its gonna cost ya though. a evo Viii kills gravel and snow too might be cheaper not to import. although i really dont know the cost.

 

I almost pulled the trigger on an JDM Evo 4 but went with a US 9 instead. you still have to wait till August for the first Evo 4's to be canada legal, but nice vehicles they are. Also watch out for broken ayc on the 4's, a nice fix is to go with the 6 rear diff.

 

I would think up there you would be more interested in a nice 4x4 truck.

 

Its gonna be expensive to import any car internationally.
