Traded the Camaro in... - Page 3

Nice car! I like the EVO. The few times I've driven one was a blast. I've known a few military guys that owned them, but later sold them because of the maintenance costs just for the scheduled servicing!

To each his own, I understand your need for a car that fits the needs of your family but $40 grand for a mitsubishi......WTF!

And the Camaro "looks almost too good"............WTF!

I had an '03 when they first got imported and it was a fun car. Turbo charged 4, lightweight and AWD. I'd take one as a DD. The EVO and the STI are both fun cars. Congrats!

P.S. Please ditch the license plate border from the dealer.

Did not want the MR. It is automatic only! The flames are starting to pick up! Thanks everyone for the nice words.

Mods? I saw an 05 evo laying down low 12's this past weekend.

Good luck with the EVO. A friend of mine's son has one. It is incredibly fast. He loves it.

Living in the snow belt, I too was thinking of doing the same thing. I am tired of looking at my Camaro sitting in the garage. However, I was eying the new Jeep Cherokee SRT8. 470HP, AWD and 0-60 in 4.5 seconds. A local dealer has a white 2013 for $63k. It's a hot truck.

You didn't go wrong at all with that. Check out www.streettunedmotorsports.com they are local to me and always have the fastest evos out there. They have a street driven 8 second Evo. I stood I next to it when it put down 900awhp. It's badass to see a car with a chute on the street or in the mall parking lot. Lol.

What a shame lol

Having a family makes a big differance in what we drive. Hope you enjoy your new car.

See ya!

Funny I looked over a very similar car in Va. a few months back when I was looking to replace my 392. The car drove great handling was fantastic, really fun car to drive. The color and options look really close to yours, the only thing I am puzzled about is the 13 I looked at was right at 32k, why was yours 40k?

Forty5th · 03-06-2013, 01:51 PM

Enjoy your new Evolution. It's still quite a nice & fast ride...
