I predict some genius will take the opportunity to inform me that an old stock Honda Civic is more reliable then a used Mitsu FQ-400. Pro tip - You missed my point.
My point was, Mitsu UK is not gonna do anything for the car, especially if shipped over here

Hack job by a tuner in someone's backyard? Funny. There are plenty of major tuning companies stateside that will build you a faster evo for less cash and less hassle then bringing that car over from the UK.

look at the parts list for it. car does not make sense if you bought it you would have to leave it completely stock to say its rare. once you pull the motor turbo etc its just like any other evo. you can build that same evo with different mods same power level cheap its just thers only 100 of them that make it stand out most.

That math seems a bit wrong. If a stock 287 hp car puts down 230-240 whp. Wouldn't a 400 hp car put down like 350-360 ish at the wheels?

Crazy cool car but def. not worth the money to me. I would rather pimp out a USDM evo, putting down more hp, 1/100th the lag. Nicer rims, and cheaper insurance!

I've read that it puts out 405bhp. I would still love to own this car just as much as TME. I would not mod this car if it were mine though. It be a car with few miles, stock and parked in my living room.
