I had a new Evo VI when they came over to the UK. Fantastic car - traction+handling top notch. Loved it. Scary fuel economy though .

Saad, why didn't you just go Nissan GTR? Is there a huge price difference over there? I think you're gonna love the Evo, I drove a friend's Evo 7 once, it was great!! But I wouldn't drive it as a daily car tho.

GTR duty structure in 560% so basically car price+ 560% X Invoice value = price of GTR ...EVO X is only 148% Duty as its only 2.0 Liter...

I sat in one at the mitsu dealer today. I've always been a fan of these. Good luck with that and don't forget to post your pics when you get it!
