Your partially right though, I couldn't afford it if I wasn't this rank with this amount of time in service.

btw if your testing this year good luck, high promotion rate this year....
Fellow boys in Blue 5 years TIS, E-5, 2 dependents...I'm looking to spend 30K for a Tarmac EVO or G35. It can work, but definitely you have to budget wisely of course Cheers

I've yet to see an Evo myself. I do WAY too much driving and I'm upset I haven't seen one in the wild, yet on the otherhand I really can't wait to have mine because people will get to see one every day where ever I go.

I haven't seen any EVO's in my area either besides myself and the GM of Mitsubishi whom I bought the car from. I was kinda expecting more WOWWWW or DAMMMMNNNN but people don't seem to know what my car is. Besides the GM of Mitsubishi at my local dealer, I know for a fact that I am the only one with an EVO in my area as they sold me the first one unless someone bought an EVO from a different dealer. I am seeing a couple of Lancer owners on Friday because my girlfriend over heard an EVO conversation from Pier1imports and they didn't know that the EVO is out already. My girlfriend said they were ver very excited.

My bad.. on topic, on average here in Fussa Tokyo, I see 1 out of say 500 cars a newer to older model EVO passing by on the street, basically not too hard to find in the wild 'round these parts Though, lucky for me, on the commute to work I pass a JDM Tarmac owned by a japanese national EVERY single morning here on base

Its funny that you asked. Of the two weeks that I've owned my black Evo, I was wondering the same the thing.
Finally saw a red one yesterday coming out of the Holland tunnel in NJ. Didn't get a chance to say hi though.

I have owned my Lightning Yellow Evo for nine weeks, and have yet to see another in the St. Louis area. My daughter and her boyfriend said they saw a white EVO the other day so I guess there are a limited few out there.

I was sitting next to a guy in an M5 at an off-ramp stoplight the other day. He had passed by me on the interstate, and actually lives in the same rural community I do. His first comment was "Wow an EVO, thats the first one I have seen!" Then he was really freaked when I told him I had owned the car for the past 2 months, and lived in the same town (5k population)!!!

Just goes to show, that cars in limited numbers can be elusive to spot....even if they are bright yellow with a huge wing !

Ive spotted only one other in the area. I was driving in my EVO and it passed me on a 4 lane goin the opposite direction, but nobody was on the road (2 a.m.) so i pulled a U-turn and followed him,but he pulled off into a neighborhood before i could catch up.
