Has anyone received their Evo VII from these guys yet? I have yet to hear about any Evo's being legalized by evolution imports. Be wary!

They're not "legalized" per-se, but they can get your car in.

Anyone can get a car in by the way they do it. Take a car apart and ship in boxes.

Nothing against EI but I think I would rather take my chances with the Cossie than spending 6k to have my car taken apart. Its a good idea but it just seems like too much just to have a car. Besides my Evo is RHD and once you drive a RHD car in a LHD society it gets old kinda quick.

Yeah, that's always bugged me. What kind of responses do you get from people? Any problems with law enforcement? How do you pay at toll-booths and stuff?

Cossie would be sick to see driving down American roads.
Also, does Sun International have a website? All I got from google was resorts....

Driving a RDH drive car is cool at first but I have to show my ID twice before I even get to work. Reaching across the car just to show my ID gets on my nerves after a year. Then when I switch between my P5 and Evo I always hit the turn signal when I want the wipers and vise versa.. The cops overhear are nothing like the cops back in the states but I assume it would be worse in the states. If I was single it would be cool for picking up women but since im married so for European tang for me....... Besides unless you are left handed shifting feels retarded(not to offend RichardEvo) I always miss 3rd when driving hard. RHD=overrated

No Mirage/E6 conversions for me. Vin swaps aint nothing but trouble and converting a Mirage cant be finacally cool. Id much rather drive a US spec Evo or the Cossie.

As the days go on im leaning more toward not getting it. If I can get the right price for my E6 I will be able to get me a good used USDM Evo cause I know as soon as the E9 comes out prices on 04-05s should drop.
Besides Cossies over here are hard to find in good condition and $$$. I much rather save myself the pain and just get a US Evo8
