Have had my evo 9 wagon for a little while now and love every opportunity to drive it, they were only officially released in Japan so any wagons outside of Japan are JDM exports. Mine was imported to NZ with only 52km on the clock (so practically new). The pic I have up was from the previous owner. If anyone wants more pics just shout out and I can get some up right away.

No, I bought it with all the mods already on. I'm still finding little mods every now and then, I need to check out the fuel pump, there's a bit of a whine that sounds like a walbro 255lph. It has an aftermarket clutch thats set to the same pressure as the evos in the NZ rally series. It was a bit hard for the first few days, a stall here and there(embarrassing) and that nasty smell but I got used to it after about a week. How is the clutch in yours?
There's definitely not many in NZ, there was a silver one in Auckland sold recently at GVI, and there's another black one for sale elsewhere. The one I bought is the first one I saw in real life. There's a good chance they're going to become collectables.
