Well I see alot on the internet, a guy posts an Import, and in the end you will always see the comment, should of put a V8 in it, or would be better with a V8...well someone has done it, and its a LS based motor too, and people on here are still ****ting on it, there really is no pleasing people with Domestic taste.

They are in the UAE, they got money to do anything. you ever see the vid of the Mitsubishi SUV racing the Lambo, and staying up with it!!! they are crazy over there, but ill give it to them, they actually have the money to do things we wish we could.

Actually I would buy an Evo over a Camaro....but I dont have teh money to. I do love Camaro's,but the fact is not many of us on these boards exactly have the money to go out and buy such perfomance cars as Evo's and STi's, especially with the economy the way it's going. Now am I saying peopel on these boards would all go out and buy them if they had the money, hell no, but im sure there are a few on these boards that would want one if they did.

Hard work? Yes.
Did it pay off? Dont think so. Coulda spent the same amount of money and made a quick AWD EVO, and not a RWD v8 powered EVO.
But they wanted to be different. Maybe they wanted an Evo that could to burnouts, or they just like the sound of a V8 under a nice car like that.
