| Where are they?!?
So I am looking for an Evo 8 or 9 in vancouver.
I know the yellow one in the buy sell here sold but apart from that there are ZERO for sale!
Was wondering if anyone knew of any for sale at any dealerships or by owner, I tried autotrader, kijiji, craigslist....found nothing.
am I missing something or are there just none around here? |

They're not that common up here, best bet is to import from somewhere close like seattle..

They weren't sold here, you have to import.

^ Referring to the above link for Josel's evo, LP auto does import vehicles as well, and that's probably your best bet. There are many dealers that would be willing to import one for you so long as you cover most of the expenses and then some, otherwise you might as well import one yourself...
Most convenient would probably be to check out seattle/portland/oregon as they're close enough that you could drive down and check them out as opposed to having to fly out somewhere just to take a look at the car...

if you have time, i would look into importing it yourself.
you were too slow junior. my buyer was one lucky sob. i sold it far from here so i wont get to see it and get my heart broken.
i would recommend lp auto for your importing needs. they are straightforward and easy to deal with.

Find one from states. They're legally allowed to be imported now from what I remember. They were never sold up here, so finding one isn't easy.
There's tons of sites teaching you how to import a car yourself from the US. Otherwise pay a broker to do it for you.

Yes they are legal for import now because the front bumper rule was relaxed. Importing from the US is pretty easy. http://www.beyond.ca/canadian-bumper...laxed/194.html |
