Incorrect, Robert Fuller of Robispec owns it now. He bought it to play with AYC. Seen it in person at his place.

Well I know a son of a celebrity has one. Met him at pruven, won't say any names though. If he wants he'll post up, since he is on the forums.

Seriously, it's a car, regardless of it's quality you need one thing to own it...money.
+1.

FWIW, if I had "money," I wouldn't be driving either, an Evo or an STi/STI. It would just be a waste of my $30,000+ to purchase either one, especially since their presence would only be eclipsed by Lamborghinis, Ferraris, Paganis, Porsches, and not to mention, numerous classic American Muscle Cars.

I can't imagine I'd be choosing to drive an Evo or an STi/STI over a 1970 Hemi Cuda, 1970 LS6 Chevelle SS, 1969 COPO Camaro, etc.

Considering the amount of cash I have to spend, the Evo and the STi/STI are unbeatable, and decent performers at any price point, but if I was making more money, the toys would get more expensive.

Frankie Munez is actually my cousins neighbor. I've seen him once at a go-karting place and he was running very good times.

I remember hearing from soneone that Paul Walker's skyline is bad ***!!! Don't know if they read about it or something, but apparently it was setup to be a killer track car.

Jackie Chan driving an Evo kind of makes sense. Who else loved the chase scene in "Who Am I?"

Never seen it. Maybe I'll rent it.

I would deffinantly choose an EVO over a 1970 Hemi Cuda, 1970 LS6 Chevelle SS, 1969 COPO Camaro, etc.


Now the Lamborghinis, Ferraris, Paganis & Porsches, I would probably say bye to the EVO.

I would still own an Evo/STi even though I was filthy rich. I would just use the money and make it into a track monster and drive around in a M5 on a daily basis.
