Ralfi, I bet they look gorgeous together. May we see a piccie or two, please ? You weren't at the Ring with one of your wagons, were you ? (I'd be miffed at missing the chance to have met (both yourself and another wagon.) When asked if they can see mine on video, I have directed people to search Youtube for username WizardKing6 but they usually moan about the fact that my clips are taken from within instead of from the outside of my car. I then steer them towards your motor being piloted by Tim Schrick for a proper demonstration of how well these things can move ! ! I met up with fellow 'wagon-er' Spirit (he has one in silver), in the UK a while ago. We had been invited for a photoshoot/feature of our cars by Redline magazine. Release date for our article is the 22nd. of September (this month.)

What's wrong with this forum, it keeps ripping my (grammatically and aesthetically correct) punctuation away ?

Removing my structured paragraphs makes it look like I've written one, long and disjointed sentence.

Check out the tim schrick EVO 9 wagon test drive on YouTube, some posted the link earlier.
Is this the link you are talking about?

If you can get hold of Redline magazine, my Evo Wagon and my friend's Wagon are featured in it. It is the very last edition of the magazine ever to be published. It is in the shops from today.

For some unknown reason our forum's edit function is extremely intrusive with respect to the written line and paragraphic commands. You pretty much have to get it right the first time.

Yeah, RHD only. It was only released as JDM and in Japan. To get one outside of Japan it has to be imported.

At any rate, Andy, the IX wagon looks simply nasty in TB. I prefer it way much over my friend's Audi S4 Avant. In fact, it has now become by far my favorite Evo.

Furthermore, I prefer the wagon's squarish body style to that of the sedan. By comparison, the sedan now looks like a just a plain Lancer to me. Yours is a lovely Evo indeed. Now, having seen your pics, I really want one in TB.

BTW, does anyone want to buy an '04, European Market, VIII RS?

BTW, does the IX wagon have a JDM IX rear bumper? I imagine that it does.
