Thumbs up Texas to California to buy a 05 RS

I Reffered Peter from Houston Texas to Huntington Beach Mitsubishi to get a smoken deal on a 05 RS. He drove 1600 miles and Traded in his 03 EVO. WOW I think the RS is getting hard to find.

I met him at Hadley's in Cabazon, turns out cars are Brothers, both have a production date of November 04.

Lets give peter a thumbs up for driving 1600 miles.

Welcome to the RS club!! I would take that bra off though, it will eat your front end over time and leave it looking very nasty. I think the clear bra is the best investment for paint protection. Also, wouldn't a california car have more stringent exhaust components than a car from say Texas?

Just got back to Houston.

Whew, what a long *** drive...

Big thanks to Rick for hooking me up with Huntington Beach Mitsubishi and Tom@Huntington Beach Mitsubishi for giving me such a great deal.

Any of you looking to buy an EVO should talk to Tom @ Huntingbeach Mitsubishi first.

He WILL take care of you.

Thanks guys, this car is such a blast to drive.

The nose mask is off the car already. I only put it on for the long *** drive.

Trust me, you'll need one when driving 1,600 miles from Cali to Houston.

Otherwise you'll have hundreds of 18 wheelers drawing whatever they can pickup at your brand new ride....
