Just Curious...

I'm just curious, i see that most evo owners experience problems with their evo and most hardly have any problem...is it the quality of parts on the car from the factory or is it just how some people drive. some evo breaks down and some don't...why's that??

It's all in how you treat the car and how you take care of it.

It seems that the car lasts accoding to the level of abuse that it endures. If you take good care of it the EVO should last you for a long time. Thrash it on a daily basis and you could be breaking stuff often. Sometimes you can just end up with a bad apple in the barrel and just get a Lemon doomed for failure.
