Yup, saw it on evom a while back, love that color. The tail lights and headlights are actually de-chromed to make them look different. The car does not make 365hp, it was tweaked to increase peak torque output, but the hp number stays the same as regular Evo 8. The major improvement is in the suspension that lead to improved handling.

Wow, I didnt know it actually has more HP. I just thought it had hopped up suspension and different color scheme. AWESOME!!

Hopefully they'll bring it to the US... wishful thinking... it also has a newer more improved ACD.

It's possible for that car to have 365hp.
A stock JDM Subaru Impreza STi Spec C which claimed 276hp, actually put down close to 300 awhp on a dynojet.

I hope they dont bring that shit to the us. I dont to be the lower evo in the food chain. 1.1g is insane.

LOL they give us the lower Evo and watch them bring a j-spec one in 2 years . That would suck .. At least they should offer us a package were we are able to upgrade to it ... With warranty it would be a dream :)

Ya know ... the 04 oz rally comes in that color ( Thunder Gray ) . So somebody will get smart and produce a USDM MR . 8)

I dont think you could make a MR out of a 04oz rally.

True , BUT someone may be actually smart enough to go to their local dealer and pick up the paint code ....... :shock:
