3500 miles, 3 months and no regrets

Out of all of the cars I have ever owned, the Evo is by far the most fun. It keeps a smile on my face!

the only thing i regret is buying a used one, cause i dont know who owned it last, or how many people may have abused it before i bought it.

my only issue with the car was one of my rotors wore too quickly

other than that it's been flawless, the stock clutch still feels great, 18K miles

I had 5 cars in last 5 years, all traded and sold...blah blah blah.
I can honestly say that I am very very happy with EVO and I see myself owning for a long time...no regrets whatsoever

Regrets-
I've had a hard time finding something Mitsubishi does cover under warranty. Most recent is weather stripping completely coming off the driver door of an 06 MR after it snowed/ froze the night before.

I'll be downgrading by buying about 85% of vehicles driven by an average consumer.

I chose this car because I wanted an awd turbo 4-door. I got everything I wanted and more. It's been an amazing car and a real trooper for the abuse I've put it through and I would recommend it's performance and looks to anyone looking for a sexy, fast, enjoyable car.

I regret buying one right now in my life, Im really not financially able to take a 300 a month for the car, another 200 for insurance, and so on. Plus maintanace on an o3 is killer. But im in love with the car, and wont sell it for anything.

there is no regret for me buying this car. the only thing I have a problem with is the money. If only I knew how much money my car would consume (mods, racing, tires every year) I might not have gotten it. But now that I have it I don't think I can get rid of it
