I was at the track here in orlando FL. Im in line waiting and an FD pulls up behind me. I was like cool a FD, I notice its right hand drive so I get out to talk to the guy, I thought he converted in. NOPE I WAS WAY WRONG hes like nope its a real SPIRIT R, 2002!!!!
It was the owner of Evolution Imports, The car was AMAZING I wish I had a camera to take pics but I didnt. I think he said that he is shipping it to Chicago so to the guy who bought It if your on here I saw it and it looks GREAT congrats!!!!

yea too bad you didn't have a camera

 

I just assumed id never see one in person. Jealous.

 

Someone posted pics of a stupidly-low-mileage Spirit R that was supposedly imported here.

If so, it's the first one that I know of.

Dave

 

I think that was it maybe i think he said it had like 200 miles or somthing ridiculous.

 

yea they are pretty cool, i saw thier subaru 22b the other day as well.

 

by the way, did it have the red carbon kevlar recaro's? last time i talked to them they said they had been stolen at port and they were fighting with the port to give them the 11,000 some dollars to buy new ones.

 

You lucky bastards...

 

Im not sure I only got to look in it for a min cause we were in line to run then he left after his run.
do you know if they have an office or anything were I could stop by and see there cars??? LOL

 

So,if i get right,he went to the track with a 200miles on the engine?

 

ditto above

 

That doesn't matter to him. If you read it right, it also wasn't his car .

 

I think I need to see a pic of one of these bad boys...Anyone have a good one laying around?

 

well, now i know NEVER to get anything from EVOLUTION IMPORTS... if they haul your car like that before shipping it to you... I believe it had 33 miles? wasn't even 200. I would be PISSED if I was the original owner of that Spirit-R, having someone take MY car to the track without telling me and treating it as a rental.

 

I am calling these guys. I will sell my FD and vert and take out a personal loan to get an '02 Spirit R

 

So what's he doing driving a customer's super low mileage car to the track? Taking a little of the sheen off of it? Getting in one last drive?

 

I saw some in Korea and yea they are very very nice to see in person... wish I can have an original as well too...

 

"brekaing it in"? "making sure everythings in good working order"? hell... thats what id do.

 

God the Spirit R is such a hot car, I want one soooooo Bad.

 

eh, i figured it was time for a change...i hope the boys in chi town enjoy my new present as much as i do

 

Breaking it in at the track? LOL. I hope the new owner is reading this forum.
De caveat emptor.

 

I heard that car was getting imported . I was suppose to go w/ a buddy to check it out. Never got the call.. Sweeet

 

pretty crazy. so theres a way

 

They had one at 7 stock two years ago.

 

Its a double post!
