No definite answer, but I would hope so. Mitsubishi seems to want a presence in Canada, no better way then bringing that EVO over there...we have the STi here...can't let them have all the glory :)

Not this year. It didn't pass front bumper 10km/h tests or something.

They've been trying to get the Evo into Canada since last year. SUPPOSEDLY we were supposed to get them soon after the US got them in Jan. of this year... but they didn't pass regulations testing and went the way of the MR-S. Ya know, supposedly they're available in the US (I'm on assignment in Dallas, TX at the mo) but haven't seen a single stinkin' one! You'd think the moment those puppies went on the market, you'd at least see ONE on the road. But alas... none. I've seen more RX-8's than Lan-Evo's.
