here in pennsylvania you get the tax difference... ie.. you trade a car for $20k and you don't pay tax on the first $20k of the car you are buying.... so it is like getting $21,200. Sometimes that makes a difference enough to save the hassles.

The Evo VIII is still gonna be a great car, and it does actually look GOOD. Really, you just have to make up your mind that you like the car no matter what, and nothing else will matter anymore...

Very well said, I agree with everything except with the getting the evo 8, cause I got no money

Hey everyone, i e-mailed Dinesh to give me a little more info. on the U.S. spec EVO, and here is what he wrote me.

"Hi,

I feel MMC had to limit the power to 271 PS due to emition controls in
the US. I prefer the car with ACD, but not AYC. As for the power, I
cannot frankly find a difference between the standard Japanese spec and
the US spec.

Well... once it is modified it becomes a totally different car. As I
have 2 Evo 7s, (Road and race) I know the difference.

Dinesh D."

I have asked him to comment a little more on the handling of the car w/o ACD/AYC. i'll post his response if/when i get it. either way, only a few more days until we learn everything for sure. Happy holidays.

I don't think he is supose to talk about it since he is with . I'm glad to hear the power feels about the same. The 1/4 track will tell us the real hp.

I hate to complain, but I must admit that I'm a little disapointed.
I think that could have done better. I don't see that aggressive look that has always accompanied the Evo.
The rear spoiler doesn't seem cohesive with the look of the car. I think that it makes the car look too elongated or something, and I'm actually considering the smaller optional one.
The new STi and the G35 are starting to look a whole lot more attractive. I hope the pictures don't do it justice and that Evo 8 looks better in real life.

For some reason, every single person that got his/her hands on the US EVO had similar reply to the question about the ACD. To me they all looked like just half answers...

I wish my gut feeling is right here tough....
