I got friends stationed there at RAF Lakenheath and RAF Mildenhall. One of my friends owns an Evo VI stationed at Mildenhall. I was thinking that you'd gotta be military cuz its not everyday I see someone outside of US in here. :wink:

Are those OEM factory installed 18/9 OZ Supeleggera's painted/powdercoated black on the blue VI? They look awesome..

... also does the VI come from factory w/similar 6 spoke design(to our VIII) with more offset like below??? At first I thought the 6 spokers on your blue car were off an VIII but they look like the ones below

Both cars are just gorgous! Welcome to norcalevo.net If my wife and I move to New Zealand I wouldn't mind pickin up a VI. Hey just a quick question. On the top gear episode with the FQ400 and Lambo I remembered they said that it only runs on Shell Optimax. What is the octane rating of Optimax?

Wow that much cost you at the pump. There are few gas stations around where you can get 100 oct at the pump (Not sure with the RON is though) but they're not close to me. I ran VP Motorsport 103 unleaded (motor oct 99) twice and the car really like it & felt much more responsive with better top end pull but it's too expensive (for me) to run everyday. It was $45 for 5 gals (19 litres). That probably a deal for you guys :shock:
