drive it baby! hate when i'm not in my car or driving another friends car and i see a Corvette or porshe or ferrari, makes me mad since i wnat to put a beating on them bad boys.

I can understand having a daily driver and using the evo for other stuff. Nothing like sitting in traffic in an evo, not fun and was not ment to be sitting in traffic. So those who have a daily driver for the city and ect I completly understand. But right now i'm a college student and drive it every day and make people droooooool.

4000 miles a year is about $1.50 a mile not counting maintenance, gas, and insurance which would be about another $.50 a mile. I'll likely put about 12k per year on this Evo... still makes you think twice when you go shopping. Is it worth saving $5 at another store if it's more than a few miles away? Just trying to save $5 at another gas station can end up costing more wear and tear than the price difference.

I've had mine for 2 years next week and still love it like the first day i got it. It still feels like a dream after all that time. 30,000 miles later engine rebuild, and possiably aproaching 400whp shortly!
