My 2003 Lancer ES!
Thought id share my lancer to the community
looking through the forums and seeing other lancer builds kinda inspired me. So just to start off, my first lancer i bought from a friend for $2200 with 165k miles in pretty great shape, body was beat up and had bumper covers but they werent too noticeable because of the color of the car was dark. I give credit of everything that was done to this lancer to my friend! He put a nice set of 17" rims on it, intake, headers, and ripped an exhaust system off a beamer at a junkyard and threw it on the lancer. Loved the car the minute i sat in it.
took her out for a spin in the snow last winter
then a month after i bought the car, this girl at my highschool my senior year last year t-boned me and threw me up on a curb..totaled the car. Long story short, was her fault and because it was, i got a big fat wad of cash from their insurance so since i enjoyed the lancer soo much, i wanted another one and so thats how i ended up with my second lancer that i bought with 88k miles in great shape in and out.
So here she is

Thanks man! Yeahh i really did get it in great shape. Only one other owner and was only in the shop for regular maintenance. The only problems i had soo far were my valve cover gasket was bad and my oil pan was leaking like crazy but its all sealed up now
