The Evo has a new friend.

So i just picked up a new friend for the Evo... They won't be able to spend much time together since I am trying to sell the Evo... not by choice. I have moved to Canada and i can't legally bring it with me. I wish i could... The Rx8 is great.... but the Evo will always be the one that got away.

The only way you can bring it up is if it a track-only car.
It can't be modified to pass laws... it is because of the intercooler placement..

We have computers here and the government can look up VINs.. telling them it is a regular Lancer just doesn't work..,

People in Canada don't have them here legally...

If someone can find me a REAL way to get it in.. you will be my best man at my wedding.. i might even name my first born after you..

The X is.. but that is the first Evo ever sold in Canada..
And they are being marked up so that you are out the door in an MR a little over $50k... so that option was out of the picture
