Fs: Only Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution Ix In Canada

[eggy]

This car is one of a kind. It breaks necks on a daily basis and it truly the best bang for the buck out there. HOWEVER. THIS CAR CANNOT BE REGISTERED IN CANADA. THIS MEANS IT CAN BE USED FOR TRACK, SHOW, COLLECTING, ETC. IF IT IS REGISTERED IN THE US AND DRIVEN IN CANADA, THEN IT'S OK. If you are still interested after reading that please read on
Year : 2006
Make and Model : Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IX MR Edition
Exterior Color : Wicked White
Interior Color : Black alcantara and leather
Auto or Manual? : 6-speed manual
Odometer Reading : 20,000 miles
Location of Vehicle : Toronto, Ontario
Description : The car is a 2006 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IX MR. It is by far the most exciting car I have ever driven, and it has put smiles on the faces of owners of cars worth twice the price. For pure driving experience, this car is VERY hard to beat.

The car has around 20k miles on it and it has been maintained meticulously throughout its entire life. This includes routine oil changes every 3000 miles, and the appropriate service at 15000 miles. It is mechanically flawless and runs better exactly as it did when I drove it off the lot. The clutch is still very strong and grabs the same as it always has, as I never launch the car and rev-match every downshift.

Cosmetically the car has 2 blemishes. Fortunately they are both on easily replaceable parts. The first is on the front lip and the other is on the left side mirror. I would give this car a 9.5 out of 10 aesthetically for that reason.

The MR consists of the following upgrades from the factory: 6-speed, Bilstein monotube shocks, split seven-spoke forged aluminum BBS wheels (replaced with aftermarket), aluminum roof, gauge pack, HID headlights with integrated fog lights, vortex generator, and custom MR badging (replaced with aftermarket).

Warranty still exists and is good for another 80000 miles or 9 years!

Extras :
Jun BL cat-back
compustar alarm
sub/amp/component speakers in the front and alpine HU
3 defi gauges w/ control unit
Swift springs
Advan RCIIs gold 18" w/ 245/40/18 tires
stubby antenna
k&N filter
yellow fogs
Tinted windows 35 in the front and 20 in the rear
Evolution IX UK black badging in the rear.

Asking Price : $40,000 OBO (flexible if serious buyer)

I have no idea what the link was because it won't let me access it.

Also, please read closely. From my knowledge it is the only Lancer evolution IX MR Edition . I have heard of a few Evo VIIIs.

This car was driven with US plates as I am a dual citizen. If you can find a way to register it then you can drive it. Otherwise it can only be used for non-street purposes.

That link was for this out of Burnaby, BC..

"2006 MITSUBISHI EVOLUTION EVO IX, AWD, 11000 km, 7000 miles-US spec. Strictly maintained. Exterior graphite, Interior black/grey. Solid top. Vehicle located in Blaine. You already know the rest, $28600."

Everyone on this site knows that other than the 15 EVo VIII's registered for street duty, any other EVO's up in Canada are for track/show use only....unless someone is visiting for the US and brought their car with them.

Might be a hard sell.....it's like having a supermodel wife sealed in a glass box....nice to have, but no fun if you can't play with it..i consider myself very lucky to have one of those 15...

I'm assuming for that price it's an RS or GSR model?

It is going to be a hard sell, but I'm hoping it will find a good home.

I hope the owner of that Evo in BC isn't trying to play it off as a Canadiancar.

Tons of people have dedicated track Evos and show evos in the states. I figure someone in Canada would probably want one too.

Not sure.....when he lists the whereabouts of the car as Blaine, WA, that should be a tipoff to be any buyer ..

Good luck on the sale....

No, there is another one.

It is in the impound yard at customs, sweetgrass.

It may never get more north than its 100x100 caged and fenced compound. Sad. When the 2008's come out, maybe it will be easier to get these things in canada. THe new ones are same hp with more weight.

I drove through last week, it was yellow. That is going to hurt someone. They don't just grown on trees, and it ain't a lemon.

I was at the crossing when that kid tried to bring his EVO VIII across.....it wasn't pretty. That was August 2...and it's still there....

[eggy]

Exactly why this is a good opportunity. It's already here in Canada and there's no need to register it if it's going to be used for non-street purposes.

[gamman]

I was at the crossing...

was there a write up on it? I really would want to hear the story.

My apologies to the thread derail.....Yeah, it's pretty sad actually....kid and his mom followed ME home in my EVO one night....asking all sorts of question, how did i get it here, etc....explained to him it was one of the 15 lucky ones. Anyways, that yellow EVO at the border is his...parents had just split up and he moved to Calgary with his mom. Got all excited when he saw my EVO up here as he thought you can't import them (which is correct)....i simply told him that if his dad still has a residence in California, to keep the plate from CALI on it and simply drive it across....easy.

Well, the night i came across with my GT500, i saw him pulled into the inspection line....his only comment was, "yeah, we're gonna try to sneak it across with an ALBERTA plate"......i shook my head and knew what was going to happen.....my geuss is the car is now evidence in a fraud case (the plate came off his GMC Jimmy)...

[eggy]

Exactly. If you have american plates you are good to go.

Otherwise don't even think about it as a street car in Canada.

[sigolajassi]

there is one guy in edmonton has the evo VIII with canada registered and insured...
how did that happen?!?

[Weapon_R]

Got it registered and insured before RIV put it on their inadmissible list. The one posted here is NOT the same as it's flagged and cannot be registered in Canada.

[DGill]

sucks that it cant be registered but thats one nice car

[Sparx]

Anyone wanna loan me 40K? Ill just register it under my parents address in Georgia

[Goo_wak_jai]

Thats not the only one, theres another one here in calgary, a silver metalic one. I don't know who it belongs too but i saw some old man driving it.

That "old man" you spotted is Vertigo on this forum.....rally car driver, performance driving instructor, etc.....

Yup... that "old guy" will drive circles around ANYONE on this forum! One of the few who knows how to properly drive an Evo.

Back on topic; could this car be re-shelled?
Does the regular Lancer have the same shell as the Evo??
