I bought my Evo 8 (new) in April of 2004 (built date Oct/03). Although I’ve exercise the thought about selling it because of lack of use (it’s a garage queen) I think I will keep it for a very long, long time; maybe forever. Its now 5 years old with 17k miles.

Perfect example.
Even if you drive her once a month, you'll still appriciate having her in your garage.
That's your baby

I'll still keep mine longer, but when it's definitely past its warranty period, I'll probably start modding it very heavily and maybe even turn it into a track-only car since I'd probably have purchased another car by then.

I had an evo and sadly due to furthering my education I had to sell her. On the other hand I picked up a bone stock 1g tsi awd with low low miles and for some reason I am more in love with that car and I will never let it go.

You sir are a victim of dsm-evo performance equal at a cheaper cost bug. This is why it's better to come from dsm's into evo's. Then you really appreciate what you're getting. Although i still kept the dsm. And will always keep the evo.

The day I bought my evo, I knew I wouldn't sell it till it was dead. I've planned all of my mods accordingly, and haven't changed my mind.
