05 EVO for sale in vancouver?

I dunno if this has been discuss before. But i was looking on craigslist and I saw an EVO 2005 in vancouver. just wondering if the law has changed or is it just a scam

i thought it was always legal to import MR2s and GTOs, because we had the canadian version here (dodge stealth was the GTO equivalent)? or did i miss something?

The government changed the bumper laws a few years ago so it is now legal to import cars like the evo 8 and 9's, VW R32's, and the MRS.

Car's on the not allowed list like the Elise and Exige and 91-93 SE-R sentra's are still on the not allowed list since they were not allowed to due to non-bumper related reasons.

OP. Even with an Evo, you are not going be beating that GT-R.

Just get a new girlfriend.

curious...majority of ppl


which one would u prefer



EVo/ STi??? drop everything and ignore the Evo being more rare, lets say they were selling it since the 90s in canada



personally i always been a EVO fan over STi


stock for stock since the past decades EVO has always been better in the performance category/speed than STi, but STi is more mod friendly with minor adjustment for instant power over EVO. Not saying the EVO cant get power

the few people i know who used to have EVOs said they ultimately sold them because of either too many expensive breakdowns, or the car just beat them up too much for daily driving

those that i know who have gone from an STi to an EVO say they wanted something more hardcore.

myself i have very little real-life experience to go on. i did get a brief ride in a stock 07 evo on the interstate in WA and i thought those highway expansion joints were going to break my back or drive me insane with all the rattling inside the car

Shit, are you talking about Evo 8/9? They are unreliable?

the one i rode in was an evo9. the others were older. best to search the mitsu forums... all cars have their issues, and subaru isn't problem free either.

thats not a scam dude. its for real.

last time i checked, craigslist has 3 or more evo's advertised. one is that white one. i think i know who's selling it. nice guy. anyway, the other two are evo 9's. a dealer is bringing them in.

you guys should see more evos coming in from the us. the CAD is doing really good so importing one is really do-able.

haha you actually bought an ISF? are you still trying to beat your buddy's GTR? hahaha just get a new girl already.
