Plus, if you had a UK version, could you imagine waking up in the morning feeling kinda groggy getting in US side drivers seat and trying to turn the car on?

haha funny! ^ But what they really have different is seats that aren't as wide and SAY-C. Someone correct me if im wrong
so suspension and everything is the same? So nothing important other than THEY drive on the wrong side of the road? LoL

Well actually...the seats are slightly different than the evo 7's. Yes they are the same dimensions, and are multiple tone, but are still slightly different. The first pic are the evo 7 seats. the second pic are the uk evo 8 seatsOriginally Posted by plokivos
yeh, they have the two tone suede seats from evo 7.

there are quite a few structural and safety difference between a EDM and USDM Evo 8. Check the petition for eligibility to import LHD EDM Evo's filed with NHTSA by Sean Morris working for G&K Automotive on behalf of Evolution Imports and response from Mitsu America's legal counsel:

For Evo 8, do a simple search for docket #: 15470
For Evo 7, do a simple search for docket #: 16031
It's interesting to read all the extra crap Mitsu has to do to make the cars compliant with all the US FMVSS (federal motor vehicle safety standards), and basically shows that the rest of the world kind of gets screwed on that stuff and that other markets don't get cars nearly as safe.
