what to chooooose??

im getting my very first car and ive been really interested in evo's. The problem is, is that i dont know which one to get. i want an old used evo, (maybe evo 5-8?)

im not very knowledegable about evos like if some evos were not even manufactured here in the us.

basically what i want is a lancer evo that is reasonable, efficient, and overall a good performance car that is easy on the cash.

what do you guys recommend?

thank you

(in ure advice if you could tell me a specific model with specs would be greatly appreciated)

VIII (8) IX (9) X (10)

Those are the only models US got. Personally if I could get a evo right now, I would get a X....

But a EVO as your first car is not a good idea..

evo is not a sensible first car, nor is it inexpensive to maintain, insure ect. its also a lot of power for a first car. judging from how little you know about it, i cannot understand why you would be so interested in it. do some research on evom its a great tool. then decide if this is something youre ready to handle, from a maturity standpoint as well as financially.

IMHO I just think having some driving experience would be a good idea before stepping in to a car like a evo.
