Yea I thought it was confirmed? Even Dawso posted an auction for one?

Interesting about a Monte Carlo edition. The Monte Carlo editions are probably the rarest version of the E39a VR4 Galant, all automatics.

I have been aspiring to live in Japan for 2 years to purchase, own and then import an Evo 9 wagon. I bought the Legnum to keep me going till that happens... if ever!

There are 2500 Evo 9 wagons available worldwide, all sold in Japan.

I parked next to an EVO 9 wagon the other day in down town Auckland. It had the 6 speed box ;)

Some were sold new in NZ but not through mitsi NZ, some of the dealerships imported them straight from Japan.
