What generation of evo? I've seen what looks like a evo from 1990-1999s, thats white, with what looks like BBS rims and a nice sounding exhaust..

well to me it "looked" like an Evo....so im not sure if it's a Lancer dressed up as a Evo or if it's an actual Evo

yeah well i have seen 2 markIV supras in oakville here and i haven;t gotten close enough to see there plates, but sometimes i wonder. It could be from down south or maybe its legit.

If my IV you mean 93-98 yea ive seen a bunch all with ontario plates, those r legal, the idea of that being legal and evo not being, very dumb.... & my intercooler is more vulnerable then a evos.. o well.. thats our goverment lol

My uncle worked at autopark, he said they had one, and had to send it back to US bucz it would have cost too much to make it street legal here .. but someone with the cash would be able to do it.. e.g. this white evo... whats to stop someone from switching the vins from arallyart to a evo, and saying they switched everything?

There are a Couple of Evo's (and Wanna-be's) around
There is a White Evo VIII with NY Plates in Mississauga, and there is a also a White Lancer ES that has been done up with an Evo IX Body and Alot of Mods. (Guy has to have more money than brains)
There is a Blue ES that is done up with full VIII Kit out of Montreal, that has been spotted in Toronto down by the Docks. And there is rumours that there are a couple of EVO's in Ontario that have been VIN Swapped with wrecked Lancers (Very Stupid Move)

You Cannot turn a Lancer, be it ES/LS/OZ/Ralliart into an EVO. They are very Similar platforms, and share a lot of the same parts, but there is just too much different with the Evo to make it possible.
We have had discussions about this in the Mitsubishi Forum.

-The Lancers are FWD where the EVO's are AWD, so right there you run into one of the biggest problems.
-The Bumpers of the Lancers would interfere with the Intercooler of the Evo (Thus why the EVO is on the RIV Inadmissible list)
-The Shocks, suspension, Tires, sway Bars are totally different
-The Mounting of the Upper/Lower Control Arms are different
-The Engine would have to be swapped.
-The Entire Engine Comparment has to be rearranged to fit the IC/Turbo/etc.

I want an Evo as much as any man out there, the only difference is that I know that it's not going to happen until the 08's are here (July) and I don't spend my time making up stories of how I am going to convert a Lancer to an Evo.

It's not the guy from New York. This is his car and that description (the first post) definately does not match this:

We got guys on MCCC trying to figure it out as well. Just to confirm, it was a Right hand Drive Evo V?

Because we have a Couple of guys that have spotted a White Evo V with RHD and Ontario Plates around Markham & Sheppard.

Also the Evo that is pictured above is Humza, it is a NY Registered Evo VIII MR with Black UK Badging on the Trunk. It is truly a Gorgeous car.
