those evo 7's are half the price of LHD 8's

USDM cars on 8 and 9 don't have the AYC rear diff either.

Love the Evo VII front end. I miss my Evo IX something fierce .

I'll take an 4G63 over any EJ257 but the Subaru drive train wins hands down.

Yup, the EVO X was the first and last gen available in Canada. Personally I don't like the EVO X. Its too bad, back then I always wanted to get a VIII or IX that were available in LHD in the US but it was a hard find for me.

what's so great about those SiR? Late 1990s and early 2000s car, with almost 300000km on the car, still going for $4000....feels like buying a tickling bomb.

Just put one on the lift and inspect it’s suspension design, then compare it to modern economy cars. So impressive in retrospect, no wonder those Honda’s handle so well with minor upgrades

2004 Honda S2000 AP2 with 140k km, no major accident. $24,900

Considering everyone is asking $30k+ for AP2 this seems to be a good deal.

Anyone know what are the costs and taxes of importing a car from the States? Seattle seems to have a ton of sub 20k cad, good condition s2000's for sale.
