upgrading to evo questions please help

hi guys, i currently drive a 03 mitsubishi lancer es that i put some money into and i love it, but im starting to really want to upgrade to the evo(preferably an 02/03). And i was wondering what a good deal is for a 02/03 base line evo? Also about how much worse would the evo be on gas then my lancer that i have now? thank you very much

02/03 lancer pretty much has the same fuel economy as a newer corvette. Your Lancer Es is way better on gas than an evo. Type in EPA Ratings in google and compare the two cars.

By buying one of the two that was imported before Transport Canada realized that the EVO was different than the Lancer.

Maybe I'm wrong but I thought that the bumper thingamajig was lifted and that older Evos were fair game now?
