Take care of that car and change the oil after you've broken her in at around 600 miles!

true.
When I got my Evo I couldn't believe how many people were trying to race me, but it only lasted for about 2 weeks, once they saw that I wasn't intrested in racing anyone on the streets they all backed down.

BTW congrats on your new purchase, and take it easy for the first 600 miles.

Yeah I get that all the time living in socal which is infested by import especially Hondas(I own a Honda too). I find it funny when this clown in his 4door Hondamatic accord revs on me at a light. I just smile at him as I say "Are you f*#kin serious. The light turns green and he tries to do a fwd peel out but his automatic tranny thinks differently. I just cruise on my way like it never happen. Why waste my time. Whats with these ford Focuses and Mazda 6's wanabe civics wanting to run me on my commute on the 5 freeway? I have respect for these cars till the owners pull up next to me and do a 3 honk then take off. I just ignor their dumba$$e$. I don't get it. If you wanna race then at least get a mustang or a comparable car to the Evo!!! I guess its the price you pay for buying high performance machine Enjoy your Evo, good thing you don't live in Cali or you'll have to deal with this crap on a daily basis Oya one more thing watch out for the haters out there!!!

Welcome to the club!

Enjoy it....

Make sure you stay out of it for the break in, you wont be disapointed after the 600 miles.
