This months SCC. ARC JDM EVO wagon

Im sure some of you guys seen this thing. I knew that they do make the EVO wagon in Japan. But did you see the prototype paddle shift? I think the car is sweet what are some of your opinions?

I saw an Evo Wagon by the mitsubishi HQ in Cypress, CA. It had manufacturer plates. I don't know how someone got one here, but it was cool to see.

The only thing I would change about the ARC car is the wing they mounted to the roof. Though totally functional (seeing as how the car has a digital downfoce meter). Its just plain ugly(the wing)

hey

just got the mag the other day - damn those jap bastards! I wish they did a limited run of the wagons here stateside! the rear doesn't look that bad but just the thought of having more cargo room on a solid platform makes it that much sexier...weird seeing an automatic evo though...does anyone know where I can a poster of this so i can hang it on the garage!!!

Just got the Mag last night. Has anyone found any pics on the Net. If so can someone post them. I've been looking but no luck yet. SCC isn't cool like car and driver, Automobile and others who post the articles online

I think it's a cool car because it's unique, and ARC did a nice job; the body kit and wheels look good. I don't think alot of people would actually buy them if they were available stateside though. I wouldn't.

The manufacturer can bring in anything they want, for like a year, then it has to go back or be crushed. I'm suprised you haven't seen any of the "i-cars" or Colts around. Didn't you say your brother in law works for them?

it's only the automatic... it only works on trannies that have tiptronic or something similar. it's actually not made by arc but by works bell who makes steering wheel hubs. so you can put it on any car.
