"On the freeway, the Evo seems to bring out the worst in the drivers around it, as everything from Honda Civics to Hyundai Tiburons all of a sudden have an urge to drive aggressively."
Anyone here with an Evo that finds this to be true?

Oh yeah, I think it might be true. Awd, turbo and big spoiler makes it more unique.

Every day on my 70 mile commute to work and then another 70 mile commute back, I get preludes, mustangs, camaros, boxsters, and s2000s and of course cops, trying to see how fast the EVO will really go.

"Driving home through San Gabriel Valley, a young passenger in a utility truck leans his torso out the window and gives the Evo a big thumbs up." LA CAR
As an Evo owner, have you gotten any thumbs up from passers-by?

That was a Tommy Grafman design. I think it was suppose to convey Darwinism, monkeys, jungles, King Kong movies or something. The font on the current cover car (the Tokyo Motor Show report) is equally funky.


But the car looks good
