We receive LHD Evo V and VI and VI Tommi Makkinen edition. There must be more than 30 in our little island. And I also think 35K for an Evo, is so much money. Take a look at an WRX, you will have more than 10k to put ads on, It surely will blow over 280hp with a few mods.
I know you guys would rather go with EVO over the WRX, I'm just using that model as a comparison. Don't bash me very hard.

They offer 7's(GSR, RS), 6's (GSR,RS, TM and 1 other), 5's (GSR,RS) and I think 4's (GSR,RS). But $35,000 for a used car is really steep... Way to much for my wallet....  But I'm going to be an engineer... $90,000 after 3 years... maybe then...

The current 2002 lancer is a gutless thing not even comparible to a evo. It's like 120 BHP and 2WD, not to mention looking pretty shitty and lacking all the aggessive details of an evo, and is pretty much an entry into the sedan world. The REAL ones will be out in 2003, AKA the evo VII's. 280 HP, no gutting.
You'll have to wait for it if you don't want to import.

Man Cyphatic.. of course every model of any car does has a base model. And look in japan. Mitsubishi has a Lancer Cedia. that is just like the one which is coming to america. The reason is that they want to debut the base model which is 120hp only to america first.. Than that they can debut the EVO after that.. so that the Base model of Lancers can have the attention and the media.
Like a Corolla, Civic and Sentra and Protege they all have base models too.. i dont see the corolla rally version coming to america at all.

Yeah I just read my last post and that looked... a tad negative :P
Well yeah, it's still a decent car. You can pry tweak it and get it up past 200 anyways. But still, I wouldnt really compare it to the Evo VII. And anyways, a Civic is still a Civic  Mwahahahah...

If you are serious about importing to US you don't have to get it RHD. They make the evo LHD. My country got like 10 evo V, maybe 15 evo VI and like 5 or 6 EVO VI TME, all LHD.

The EVO VII is for $52,000
Hey, I checked out the site evolutionimports.net to see what they were offering the EVO VII at. Turns out they are planning to sell it for $52,000 (without the Ricardo seats) Also, the dude said that if you order it now it will be ready sometime in Jan. 02. The car will be packing 280-309hp depending on what octane gas you run 93-100. Plus it will be US standards approved. I think the price is quite steep. They will be coming with the EVOIX in 2003 which will be sold Aug. 2002 in the US. The car will be detuned to 230hp according to this rep. :flash:
