Wow,

You NEED to take that h3 to the nearest performance shop and have them install at least a 100 shot of nitrous. If that happened to me, that h3 would be toast

I would not take the car back. I would want a new evo and would do evrything and anything in my power to get a new one. YOu did not give them a busted evo so they should not let you keep a busted evo. I don't care what anyone says your ride will never be the same. Tell them you want a new one no if ands or buts, and that you are already in contact with a lawyer. Tell him he can junk your evo to help pay for your new one.

No dont blow the H3 up just drive it around in 1st gear a whole bunch, make sure you take it off roading, maybe some attempts at the world record for fastest speed over a sequence of speed bumps, maybe some winter weather testing? Just get your moneys worth out of that H3, trust me you will feel much better afterwards.

Sorry to hear all of this - I hope you get it totalled as well

Just told the GF about this - she used to valet in Philly while going to college - she said they ALWAYS took cool cars for joy-rides

Immature kid with an evo? How is totalling an evo as a valet driver not only 100 times more immature but unprofessional? There sole purpose is to park your car and make sure they dont **** up, we do that how many times a day without trouble, yet it is this guy's job and he manages to crash it in the process???

Messing with the H3 might not be right, but was the initial action?

Hell yeah, get a lawyer bro. You just lost a whole lot of money on resale if it ever came down to that. Their insurance will not only pay for the damages but will also give you extra money for the drop in resale value. You only have to ask...
