Yeah I know, and it's about damn time we got it! As to why. . well we always get the tamer vehicles. The rest of the world gets the WRX forever, and when we FINALLY get it, it's got the lower rated engine. We never got the Silva even though we got it's wimpy little brother the 240SX. We never got the Skyline except for used vehicles that we have to pay higher-than-new prices for. The top civic/CRX over here had 108hp. The top civic/CRX in Japan had 165hp with VTEC. The BMW M3 is toned down for the US. Hell even American built cars are cooler in other countries. We're finally about to get the Holden Monaro (disguised as a pontiac if I recall), but Australia has had it for a long time. For some reason, people don't think Americans like to drive fast.
