There's no better feeling than the "I just bought an Evo" feeling! You made a good choice. The hardest part is the break in, but in my opinion it's well worth it in order to keep a healthy, happy 4G63.

Just got back from putting MORE miles on it.

I must honestly say, driving it (slow in traffic, watching the rpms' etc) it STILL feels really good, just enough weight and feedback on the steering...

I kept thinking this is what driving is supposed to feel like!

To whomever toiled to make and design the EVO, very good job.
I ticked off a friend last night, he said blah blah but you would still trade it for a supra like mine. When I smiled and walked to the car, I said No, honestly I wouldnt he looked a little upset/pissed. lol

I'll let it cool down, tomorrow more driving!

good choice! my buddies are always giving me crap because i made the switch. they get even more upset now that i am faster than them hahaha.

in all honesty i loved my STi to death but after my accident i wanted to try something different and always wanted to have an Evo. have fun and enjoy

Very cool!
Thanks for the warm welcome, the community seems great!
My girlfriend loves the car (odd) and even my mother liked it! (how odd)

I'm one to baby my cars though, my STi got rained on once and I bought a daily so it would not happen again lol, this will get the same treatment.

Now I need to go buy wax, but what do you guys put on your spoiler? I heard you should wax the CF part but with what? (I'd hate to dmg it in some way)

I'm off to search in the other forums for some answers.
