    No kidding, not everyone can have their camera with them at all times.
    Also, its been harped on NUMEROUS times about posting pics in spotted threads, so IMO he did the best with what he had albeit a camera phone!



    GOOD POST DUDE!
    wonder why it didnt have the high spoiler?

    this car looked amazing in person, he had the rear badging shaved (some of it at least) so i'm guessing he had the spoiler replaced aswell. good job on the posting shariq.

    its probably a RS with a added wing... why would someone get a RS for a daily....no ac, no trunk, no nothing

    Nope, there was only one trim level for the ones that got legally imported.

    it's an rs. basically a car made for track use, just look how short the trunk is, that clues its a rs since rs doesnt have a trunk

    Like I said, if it was legal, it cannot be an RS. All Evo 8 in Canada are 2003 models. The RS was not available in 2003.
    The RS came out in 2004 as did the MR.

    He may have simple changed the trunk. A lot of STi guys do it, so why not Evo guys?

    For some reason...I dont think it's a real EVO...

    No EVO stance, no EVO front mesh, who removes an EVO wing with CF on it to stick on the base level EVO wing??...and I know you can't really tell from the angle...

    But I dont really notice an FMIC does anyone else??

    I am sure I saw this car in traffic in my rear view, and I don't think it has a FMIC... I don't think its an Evo. I think it still has the tiny Lancer Ralliart muffler too.

    this is not an EVO.. you can tell by the headlights.. I would be even more clearer if we could see the tail lights as well. Simply a pre 2004 lancer with a kit, hood and painted calipers

    May not be an EVO but it looks nifty. Mabye the guy is going to "EVOSIZE" his Lancer up. But I agree on the spoiler. They must go for a lot of money eh?

    Sure is nifty Ned! doodaly doodaly doo!

    I should "evosize" my minivan....it could use a bigger spoiler and cupholders. Damn soy milk keeps spilling forcing me to settle for a Canesten.

    Do you guys know what an Evo looks like?

    First of all, lancers don't have projectors.

    Secondly, to Evolutionize a Lancer, you would have to get new hood, bumper, headlights and fenders (kinda like a JDM integra swap).

    Unless he painted his calipers red, those look like 4 piston Brembos to me. The wheels look very much like the Enkei forged wheels that Evos come with.

    Real EVO8. I got a ride in this one on the weekend. Unfortunately, the owner only learned how to drive 3 weeks ago, so basically he started from a stop in 2nd gear at a few intersections, never went over 4000rpm, and maybe hit 1psi of boost.

    Suspension felt pretty comfortable, more comfy than the STi. No clue how good/bad performance is. The interior is WAY cheaper than the STi.
