Real or Not? [Jap-Spec Evo 8 RS]

Is this for real or not? Just curious is this real or not since i've heard alot of negative things about EI.

Looks real to me the door handles and mirrors and in the trunk you will see what looks like something for the ACD or SAYC plus the insturment cluster. I would just be carefull with anything sold by Evolution imports you might get them your cash but never get your car. Good luck if you get it though.

Real but you would never see it if you bought it. This is Evolution Imports after all.

Don't jump to fast. That isn't a certified car. Notice in the small print. Pending cert (hopefully fat chance) in 2004

EI has had nothing but bad things posted about them, it's a nice car that you can't drive on the streets legally

Evo 8 RS

Thats for real, just not gonna be on US streets and highways anytime soon. I HATE that Japan and Europe get so many better features. Even the simple gray inserts in their seats make all the difference! 6 speed, driver controlled center diff, center console badging, Super AYC.....this sucks. I love my Evo, but we should have these features without a doubt. If only I could get my hands on the guys that make the decisions on what specs make it to our shores!!! Oh well, I still smoke Z06's withought even putting effort into it so it's still worth it right!!!
