EVO VIII in Australia?

[samboR34]

does anyone know when the EVO VIII is coming to Australia? I read somewhere that it is coming out early next year, is this true?

[Amaru]

Yeah the release date is for early next year, Ralliart are only bringing in 100 units (its another Ralliart dodgy like the Evo 6.5), and price is expected to be around the same as the STi, so around $55,000.

Theres actually a few in Australia already, and I live in Canberra and have seen a growing number of Evo 7's and 8's running around... bastard

[TIMMMAYYY]

yea i"ve seen a bright yellow one with trade plates gettin around adelaide in hte last week

from reviews i see the evo 8 is smashing the GTR and its hell cheaper. but still its not a GTR :headspin:

[franks]

i'd be very surprised if "its-so-shitty" release the evo8 for 55k in australia...

[samboR34]

if ur very surprised that the evo VIII is selling in aus for 55k u obviously dont know much about them cause i think thats a reasonable price for what they are.

[samboR34]

thanks to those people that are answering my question and not bagging out the evo VIII...

[redline2003]

y r evos so rare in aus if they r aus delivered?? imo they should either mass deliver them (like 200sx) or not deliver at all coz it ***s us up as we can only import non aus delivered cars, o well in the end its a mitsubishi....

[wrxkilla]

not another one of these threads.

$65k - really $70k on the road.

GSR with AYC & ACD spec.

sambo, i wasnt bagging out the evo8 - i farken love this car! im just mocking the name mitsubishi as the reality is they arent one of the most reputable car manufacturers in the world....

that said amuse me, why do you think 55k is a reasonable price?

i would still be tempted to buy an evo8 at 10-15k over and above an my03 sti because they are that good.

[wrxkilla]

word frankie

they could sell evos in aus for $80-$90k and they will still sell......

[franks]

meh, there not that great looking... the new series looks like a dogs ass

is that so???

[franks]

word frankie

yup. i totally agree. they will be a cult car aimed at the pure enthusiast wanting more or something different to an my03 sti.

didnt the evo6.5 retail in australia for like 80-85K?

looks like a baby magna

[NickR33]

Rice anyone?

[king_kw13]

Yeap yeap - they actually look the goods.... when done up.... and comeon an EVO cannot be a rice burner - it goes almost as hard as a GTR!!!

55k is an awesome price for a car that is better than an STI

[ed]

I don't think the 55k pricetag has been confirmed yet.

[VIPERGTSR01]

i think this one looks better.....

*EDIT* damn pic wont work

[MINES_DATSUN]

55K. then everyone would buy that. but 55k sounds rite even if you import one brand new from japan. but id rather a r33 gtr with modz then it . since the evo's can hardly pass 400bhp.
