I looked up the weight of a few USDM evos and they appear to be a hell of a lot lighter than our NZDM and JDM imports, sitting around 3300 lbs.

I know that AYC adds a good amount of weight. There's probably something else, too, that we don't get in the US. It would be interesting to know what it is.

So nice, i believe there is not many in australia either

Also think mitsu made adjustments in the factory suspension to accomadate for the increased weight of the wagon.

LOVE these cars, they do not have the AYC either though but a fast wagon is too funny.

EVO wagons were only sold new in Japan, other countries had to import JDM spec.
