Rep Power: 396

On my way back from buying my girlfriend her Xmas gift I was driving along when I pull up to a silver Mitsubishi which I thought was a Lancer...Well I noticed the huge EVo rear spoiler....and very large rims and tires.....and I notice that he is driving on the wrong side of the car....I could not believe that this was a Real Evolution. This car was hot. The car had Florida plates....The guy driving it couldnt of been older than 20. I was staring at the car, with drool on my lip....The guy was looking at my car too ....I almost forgot I was still driving.....

sweeeeet
but is it legal to drive that ???

 
Rep Power: 0

I think it is legal; emitions is the big one that costs more. I think it would be a little confusing though to operate a right-hand drive vehicle on left-hand drive roads...but for some of the cars that you can get, the pros would definitely outweigh the cons! One day...I'll import her and have some fun on the streets of Boston...

I prefer left hand drive though. It's a lot harder to shift with your left hand...has anyone tried???

I'm right-handed.

Oh yeah, that's the other factor to it...that would be totally weird shifting with the other hand...though I have seen very very early model cars that are right-hand drive AND have the gearbox on the right...now that's trippy!

I'd like a right side driver's seat... That way I can show off my stronger arm when I'm cruising.

Yeah, I don't know about shifting with my left hand. I can imagine it, but I can't tell if I'de be good at it? What about the clutch, brake, and gas? Are they reversed as well? [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]

the pedal layout is the same, but the shifter is not... im not sure about the lights and the blinker controls... but as a kid i used to shift with my left hand with my gramps.... so it would not necessarily feel wierd... but given time... u would...

My dad is left handed but when we were in Europe he still had trouble shifting with his left hand. Its just something that you have trained yourself to do.

Like I said before I was driving next to him and I was late for work...so no I didnt get to talk to him....but man was I jealous....Its not everyday you get to see an EVO in Westbury....When is the US model coming out?

I want a right hand drive!!! it would make passing someone so much safer. be a pain stoping at the wendys drive-through or paying tolls though

Uhh, ok, and when you all started driving a stick shift, how confusing was it to start off with your right hand? Its all perspective, like learning a new language. Ive heard a lot of good things abotu having the shifter under control from your left since you constantly bring the shifter clsoer towards you as you shift into higher gears.... but then again, ive never done it nor am i going to stand behind the comment until i have. And if i imported, it would definitely be a skyline r32 or r34 (sorry, r33 just doesnt appeal to me for some reason.) before a lancer evo.

Well here is San Diego I know there are at least five different Skylines. Soon to be six. My boy is most likely going to be getting an R32 within the next couple months. Oh I can't wait to drive that. As far as the gauges and such they are the same way. The needle moves the same way and everything. Of course the gauges are in km instead of miles. The shifter is the same first on the left side and 6th on the right. It is legal to have a car that is right hand drive but there is documenation that needs to be made with the DMV. The same as if you had a classic. I don't know for sure about the Evo but as for the Skyline they can be legally imported by one company and can be registered as such.

I got a vid of a uk version mclaren with RHD and his shifter was mount to his right, but the seat look like it wasn't where the right passenger seat would be it looked like it was a bit more to the middle. I'll try and find the video.

Wow thats cool I would have liked to see a photo of that. Yeah have the shifter on my left hand would be different but I could get used to it

That's because McClaren's are 3 passenger cars. The driver's seat is centered in the front, supposedly for better visibility, and the passengers are behind him on either side, forming like a triangle seating arrangement.

How do you pick up a value meal at the drive thru w/ right handed evo?

 
Rep Power: 0

don't forget the parking ticket too!

I drive on the right in my home country - Malaysia!! and yes I can't drive a stick shift here because i find them confusing

The first time I tried to drive a stick shift here... i couldn't even get the car started.. didn't know that i needed to apply the clutch to get the damn thing to run.. we sure don't have this "feature" in cars in malaysia..
