So Cal EVO spotting

Driving down the 55 freeway this evening about 11:20 and I spotted a White Evo 8. I got off on Lincoln Ave and it got off as well made a left and then a right and it dissappeared into the Villa Park hills. Honestly, I think my lancer looks better, but I did like the front clip and the hood a hell-of-a-lot better than whats on my 03.

Are you sure it was an evo8? There was a white evo 7 at the mitsu headquarters this past weekend. Since I seem to be the unofficial photographer around here I didnt think twice and snapped some pics.





And just a cool pic of the courtyard:

Lol, that's about 3 miles from the Mitsu HQ..........the HQ is at the 22 and valley view. Sounds like someone was taking a test drive

I'm not a stalker....when i'm in the area I stop by to take a look for you guys. That's also why I always have my camera with me. I'm sure most people in here would do that. I'm fine with waiting for it to come out but I know you guys are dying for more pics.

limey, i tried.....the dock is way to big to find anything. Plus, with recent events, the security is overwhelming. Remember, its the united states' main import dock. I dont overestimate when I say it's huge. Is anyone here familiar with the long beach harbor/shipping docks?

Someone around here must know what dock or pier number Mitsu uses at the Port.

When I went to pick up my 61 Mini at the ports in Baltimore, I was given a map of the whole automotive portion of the port. I knew who unloaded their cars where. There were lots full of British/European brand cars.

It can't be that hard to find this info for the Long Beach port, could it?

Rob, did that white EVO VII have the smaller wing on it?? It seems like it's smaller in the picture... And, it's ok with me that you're a stalker.. I don't mind at all....
