If it were an FQ400 would you consider it an exotic?

 

No.

 

There is nothing exotic about the Evo OR the STi. If exotic is what your looking for, then sorry bud, you bought the wrong car.

 

I know its not an exotic....but there is some places that give them that status.

 

but it comes from the far off land of japan from the mystical manufacturer mitsubishi and uses exotic materials like steel

 

by definition i think we can fit into this category... the evo is definitely unique in its characteristics... given you can buy a body kit and some parts to copy the appearance, but you can do the same with other "exotics" .... what i have always thought to be funny is you see all these body kits for cars... the evo 4 the evo 5 and so on, you never see the sti anything

Maybe they classified it as an exotic because it costs as much to maintain an evo as it does an exotic......hmmm?

 

maybe they thought the Evo was a stripped (out) Porsche Carrera 4?

 

lol possibly.... or maybe they had never seen a 4 door car do 150.... rare = exotic ............ i do like the strip tease thing though, just hoping mine doesnt start stripping off parts
