Nevermind the break-in procedures. I guess you and the dealer were too caught up in the moment to think better. Maybe this is just another reason why the majority of dealers are so reluctant to let people test drive, or should I say, "joy ride" their EVOs.

Interesting, so here is a dealership letting some guy drive and put mileage on there most valuable and hottest commodity -an 06 IX MR- with out discussing price or even feeling confident that you may actually want to buy it, did they even do a credit check?. Like I said ...Interesting!

I am really getting the impression that you guys do not believe me.. I SWEAR it was an 2006 MR whether it was an IX i dunno I swear he let me drive it, I have an s2000 and a Jeep Cherokee Laredo so i have a good trade in!


I am just gonna have to buy it for you guys to believe, I am not a fibber!

its a 9 and i think they believe you,but they're flamming you for taking it for the 0-60 time because it was a brand new 9 and the engine has been broken in yet
