Is it Just me??

Is it just me or does everyone else think evo's are special cars. right now i am able to purchase either a 2008 335i coupe, a C350 sports sedan, or a evo ix Mr. All the other cars have more features and they are fast also but the evo just seems to be too special of a car to not buy over the benz and bmw,

Is it just me that thinks this way about the evo? its just too special of a car and there are not too many of them around

I think so. It's a special breed of car. In a whole other class.

I get the same think and mines TB, so im sure the color adds to it. but its def the fact that its an "evo" or some sort of car they haven't seen before.

A real head turner no matter what.

I have no clue why, and i really haven't thought about it but since I've gotten my car (about a year now) there hasn't been a week that's gone by that someone hasn't asked/complimented about my Evo. It ranges from high school kids to senior citizens. I dunno....

Its all about what you want in the car, the evo is definately for a niche.

I sold a Evo 9 MR to get my dream car a 05 Imola Red M3. Sunk around 15k total into it and still wasn't happy. I sold that car so I could buy another Evo this time I went with a VIII.. I couldn't be happier. However I will say this, if you truely have the cash I guarantee you won't regret the new 335 its awesome with aLOOOOT of tuning ability but at a very high price. European cars are not for the faint of heart or wallet rather especially if you want big power. I will probably never sell my Evo 8 its only a weekend car and gonna be a purpose built track car.

Evo's are an amazing car, its just that have something different than your average bland car like bmw's are IMO. Who gives a **** about an interior, the less crap on the inside the faster you'll go.

The 335i is an amazing combination of performance and luxury, and looks sexy as all hell. It's a great "Grand Touring" type of car.

Unfortunately, if you ever do get the itch to start modding it, it's going to cost more. The car could be a beast with an upgraded front mount, a little more boost and some tuning. I'm sure it can run the pants off an e92 m3.

evos are great but i would go with the 335 just cause for me personally im starting to move into the phase where i just want a nice car to drive stock and the c350 is nice but honestly i would stay away from the mercedes in general just cause their cars arent what they used to be.

Evo's are definitely special, but in a cheap chinsey kind of way. They are ***** to the wall and are built for racing, and racing only. BMW's get you laid and can be driven reasonably fast as well (in style).
