I take my car everywhere. Work, college, dates, everything. Take my friend to work if he needs a ride and race my other friend in his evo on the way to work. Having an evo at work isn't a big deal tho. 4 evo's and 2 sti's so my car fits right in.

I'm self-employed. My clients either couldn't give a hoot about my Evo, or they're curious more than anything else. I've yet to hear a negative comment of any kind, just the opposite, in fact.

I drive mine to work everyday, however none of my coworkers have a clue what an evo is. However, I have the problem of whenever we go places, sometimes I get volunteered to drive just cause I have 4 doors. It wouldnt be too big of a deal, but I have some morbidly obese coworkers and im desperately afraid they will break my passenger recaro. However, once I couldnt get out of it, and that seat held a 400+ lb guy and did just fine. So they are pretty durable. I made sure to drive EXTRA easy and prayed the whole trip.

I drive mine to work everyday 100miles round trip. I love driving my Evo, except in traffic sometimes the stage 3 clutch is a pain! None of my co-workers don't really have any modded cars that I can see or heard of. Except for one dude that works nights that I have never met just see him leaving when I am pulling in. He has a heavily modded RSX. People are always looking at my car though and they love it. Sometimes I wish I didn't get rid of my teg though as my DD.

Mine's a DD, takes kids to school, goes to work, shopping etc. I do park away from others and it doesnt have any door dings, but I own the Evo, it doesnt own me.

I used to drive my Evo as my DD but then spun a bearing and now have a sweet 91 Accord with 154K on it and the interior door handles don't work so I have to roll the window down to get myself out.

My Evo is my DD, so I drive it everyday. I work in Aerospace, with a bunch of older guys, so they get a kick out of the power that it makes. They're a bunch of muscle car guys, but they like the evo's looks too!

gave two female customers a ride home and forgot to slow down to "normal" car speed when I was taking a turn and made one of them yelp. It was awesome.
