I think the one you quoted is actually an RS-2, which is more desirable. This one I drove is a GSR.

i really would like to have a Zero Fighter then a TME. If we talking about the VI line.

That would be unique even in EU.

the VI was modified by ralliartuk(now xtreme-uk.net) and made X-cars called, evo extreme, evo zero fighter and also the extreme RS450. Mitsubishi made their own, as TME.

if you really want the 450hp, that would be the extreme RS450.

Shipping is just $1800 but you can shipped it to Canada then drive it to US if you dont want to convert it to LHD.

So cheap !!!

You will not have to convert it to LHD. My buddy has iported a Skyline and Original Mini....both RHD still. However, you will have to bring it up to US Spec as far as emissions, glass, lighting, and safety equipment.

That being said......the conversion costs is why people are selling them in the states for $20K. My buddy bought his Skyline for $13k US, after fees and the conversion (which only Motorex could do) he paid $56K
