I feel disgusted ONLY if I see an evo owner who thinks he/she is too badass for all the other owners and doesn't treat their evos right. This really makes me wonder how unfortunate we are to be a part of their evo community.

Are you sure you live in SoCal?

I drive 64 miles everyday to downtown chicago back to my home and very rarely do i see an evo. Are you sure there are no evo meets that day or sometimes there is a gathering of evos to the holyland of AMS?

I sat down at a hibachi steak house to have the guy next to me talking about selling some car tail lights... so I ask for what car? he replied "the porsche i used to own".. my reply "what do you drive now" .. him: "evo" ... turns out we drove the same car, worked in the same field, and our girlfriends were both named Melissa... talk about twilight zone. I rarely see evo's at all. The ones i see are usually the same ones over and over.

anyways... I was happy to see the parallels, not annoyed.

That's just too uncanny, I would have stabbed him in the face with a chopstick.

Nuevo Mexico, Is a perfect place for an Evo. Open Highways, and plenty of back roads. You need to go to white sands.

in response to this thread, i think you need to sell your car and think about something more rare....like a Ferrari. If not, you better get used to the fact that these are only $30k cars which makes them very affordable for the average buyer who wants a thrill.

There arent many evos around where i live. I see another one probably at most once a month. STI's on the other hand are a completely different story. This place is overrun with them.
