I got my evo this march, about 3 weeks back. Now i saw the sticker which has the manufacturing date on it says October 2003.
Is this NORMAL ?? Shudnt it say something like Feb 04 or something ?
And before you all go yelling tht the evo is a direct IMPORT.. (CBU's shipped from Japan).. but still if i buy a Car in 2004, the least i can expect is for it to be MADE in 2004.

 

i got mine in January and the build date is Dec 03

 

The '04 Evo's aren't out yet AFAIK. It should be a 2003 model.

 

Where can I find the manufacturing date?

 

Check the sticker on the car frame inside the driver side door.

It is no big deal that the car was made long ago. Besides 6 months is not that long ago especially for a car coming by boat from Japan.

Flybyevo...

 

It's the same for all cars. Manufacturers start making the next year's models in August of the present year.

 

I don't really mind a more distant build date..... i've been told that it takes a while for the paint to settle anyways...
