There is also a couple of New Yorkers with EVO VIII and IX's registered and Plated in NY and driven up here.

The EVO X is a beautiful car, but I am not holding my breath on it showing up in Canada any more. We were told Jan 07, then Sept 07, then Dec 07 then Feb 08, so until I see something in writing from Mitsubishi Canada saying the Evo is a go, and they are allowing dealers to take pre-orders on them (be careful of this right now) I will not put a penny down on a new Evo X.
