I am really thinking of getting rid of the evo. Ive had this car for 5 months and its already broken twice . Ive gotten it fixed twice and now im waiting to find out the damaged caused by the freeze plug coming out. Im am getting really stressed out w/ this car breaking down and concerns that it might do it again. I think its in my best interest to part it out and sell it. I am gona sleep on this decision.... Whatever i decide i will let you guys know. PLEASE DO NOT PM ASKING FOR PRICES OR PARTS! Thanks

 

pm sent!

jk, that sucks! hope all goes well with it! And if you do decide to sell, you shouldn't have a problem selling it. great color/year/mods.

 

still thinking about it......
trade it in toward a m3

 

im just wondering, you bought this car brand new. if you did, that sucks, man. i've not had a problem with mine yet. good luck with whatever you decide to do. maybe trade it in for a nine and keep it stock.

 

Attention ***** , Big Winged Altezza Bastard and I hate to relay on a "whom am not saying" shop in Santa fe springs for crappy over priced service No thank you

I want something small that I can wip around .A small black CARBURATED S2000 should be my next car.

Evo I love you but your a bastard like your father

I know am turning

 

lol

 

Take a deep breath and really think things through. I'm in the same boat, but for different reasons. I keep regretting buying the EVO and want a Viper or Z06, but the wife has given me the blessing on another car we just have to make some adjustments first. I gave the EVO a good flogging today and even though it felt like a slow civic it was fun.

My kids keep scratching my paint, so that is erking me too, but how much more erked would I be if it were a Viper?? In the end it's nothing a 200+whp won't fix and tax returns are right around the corner.

Good luck and as long as it is fixed under warranty I wouldn't sweat it too much unless this is you're DD then I would be sweating it. I have a Hyundai for a DD under warranty to 100K Good luck!!

 

What's a carburator and what does it do

The s2000 is sexy, I just wish it had bigger bawls

 

Yea that definately sucks man, Havent had one single problem at 15,000 miles.

 

DONT SELL IT! If it breaks one more time call mitsubishi and demand a buy back.. then you wont take any loss on the car.

 

Either its a lemon... or you can't drive, plain and simple. A doesnt just fall apart, UNLESS... it is a lemon. I have had mine for over 40k miles with no issues, period. Anything and everything that I had an issue with (brembo paint and wing) were replaced without hassle.

 

i feel ya, i bought mine in feb. and i just don't think it was worth the money, i should've gotten the s2000 cause the reliability record is way better than the evo. but i already had two cars before and would've had to do it again cause i'm sure the s2000 isn't good in snow so i had to go with the evo if i wanted a DD.

 

How exactly did you freeze plug blow out?? mine blew out about a year ago but that was due to a high boost spike and it actually help me keep my motor... did the plug blew due to normal driving??

 

M3's are slow and expensive as HELL to mod, I say keep the EVO.

 

Time to upgrade to an IX.
