Doesn't look like it, you have the amber bottom turn signals on your headlamps while all usdm have the little top of the headlamp square as their amber turn. Alsp, you have the factory anti-lag/emissions/egr equipment which connects those lines going to the top of your exhaust manifold; usdm models do not have these and there was no evo 8's for Canada. Some sort of european model is my guess.

Good buy though, very clean car, mustve been some sort of factory showcase vehicle.

Didn't knew that!

how do I find where it came from? possible with the vin number?

The car doesn't has any audio system, cd player, speakers, etc

and the inside of the trunk, doesn't have carpet or material in the back of the seat, and also on the sides, bare matel showing

It was a showcase vehicle, went to one dealer for a few motnhs, then to another, etc. and then stored on a dealership garage

Also, you're missing thr abs unit which means you have a evo RS model this explains all the missing panels

So it doesn't has ABS???

I thought the RS, had no wing, this one has, and although it is missing audio and speakers, it has AC, power windows and door locks.

No sunroof, and it has I\C sprayer and ACD

New pic I took today, I passed the 3k km line on the odometer!

I did some research, I think it is a rs (because missing panels, audio, speakers, trunk bar), but with some of the options installed, like a/c, power buttons and windows, spoiler, map and interior lights, I/c sprayer

As said before, I\C sprayer set on auto spray

it has 3 modes, auto spray (should be temperature based), manual, and off

It has ACD

I need to test f it has ABS or not

And I wonder if it has the other traction system besides ACD, that US market didn't get, Y?? something

Us market evo 8 received acd in 05 only, 03-04 mechanical. Non of u-s market ct9a models had ayc as all foreign models did from the beginning, aside from the low end 5 speed models. You have some sort of rs model (based on no abs), possibly with power door locks/panels swapped in. Is your car a 5 speed or 6 speed? I'd assume a 5 speed as Evo 8 MR RS (6 speed) is exactly what you have but darkened headlamps and a 6 speed, but is a jdm-only model methinks.

Most service items have a mileage AND a time span requirement/suggestion ie. change oil in 3K miles or 3 months. So he "may" have some service items to take care of. Also, like someone else said, depending on where/how it was stored, it may or may not need various maintenance.

That's my point, I already did an oil change, don't know if I should do tranny and diff. fluids, or other fluids also, coolant etc

I'm changing the timing belt, because I'm getting cams installed, but I only ordered the timing belt, not the other one

nice find, keep her stock.
For about a month! mods are on the way

It's quick, but not fast enough (I drive a srt4, with upgraded turbo and some bolt's on installed)

New pics also! detailing done (battery on the camera were dead, so only cel phone pics)

you should probably bang some dust out of your air filter.
