Personally, I think 2005 Electric Blue VIII's are pretty rare as I have rarely seen any for sale or even owned on the forums.[/QUOTE]

Hey I own a 2005 Electric Blue VIII SSL (which I'm trying to sell). I had to factory order it thought they found one on a boat like I wanted so I didn't have to wait too long. One point rare does not necessarily mean worth more, some "rare" packages are better known as "undesirable"

 

I too have an Electric Blue VIII mines a BR330

 

In Japan there's usually a few available at the car dealerships.

outside of japan it's much harder to find one because it was a JDM only release and only 2500 made! it seems there are a few imports in europe, jamaica and NZ. not sure about the states!

 

No. Unless your info is wrong, its some 18 year old in cali.

 

Whoever thinks that there are no rare evo's is clearly mistaken. Most vehicles are produced by the tens of thousands. We're talking 60-90,000 accords, corollas and such. A corvette is considered a "rare" car based on the math. They produce around 12,000 a year. You are probably thinking, I see corvettes all the time! Either way, they are considered rare based on production numbers. 30-40,000 for mustang and camaro's. To put this into perspective, there were around 5-7k EVO's produced per generation(12k evo 6's). Any EVO you see is rare. With crash reports, the older the evo the more rare it is. So lets say since 2003, there are maybe 60k evo's in the entire world since 1992(random guess, probably generous). Toyota recently sold it's 30 MILLIONTH corolla. There have been 1.5 million corvettes ever made. http://www.mitsubishi-motors.com/cor.../fact_2010.pdf is a good resource for data about their production numbers. evo's barely make the fact sheet because they don't make that many. Mitsubishi motors only sold 1.5 million total vehicles in 2007. probably around 10 million today. Food for thought.

 

I would like to see a full carbon fiber body evo.

 

Thats not factory made.... But it has been done, here is the leader in Time attack... at least it was...

I realize that, i guess i did get a little bit off topic lol, my imagination took hold and i commented randomly. But wow that is in interesting evo i have to say. It may be too much though. But since its for track i guess it works out.

 

I wonder how many 05 RS' there are. I have a RR one.

 

Haha I see that... and its never too much when function comes over form. That car dominates on the track

 

rare Evo is a Red Evo IX MR SE....i never seen a red Evo IX MR until I got mines I always see them White or Graphite Gray

 

A red SE does not exist

 

I have a red evo 8 with the sunroof package

I haven't seen a lot of Evos with a sunroof

 

SE dont come red true...but have you seen a red evo 9 MR with SSL seats?
