i had to wait atleast a month to afford my clutch. It should be in before this weekend. I've been driving my toy pickup. I enjoy driving it but sure miss the evo.

How do you guys deal with not having your car?

Does everyone sell or trade their car in when they get a new one?

I have 3 Evos, 95 GSX, 91 Talon, and a Benz SUV.

I am just keeping cars after their paid off. I sometimes go for a week or 2 not driving the Evo's just to change it up a bit.

Then when I get back into the evo's it’s like a new driving experience again.

Daily driven evo here, managed to keep low mileage on it for an 04 only at 48k miles. The problem is probably because it's usually in the shop or I don't like to drive it much in the winter. It's in the shop right now and when I don't have it, I just watch videos of evos that are faster than mine and makes me miss it more and want to invest more into modding hahah.

I hate not having my evo because all i do in my spare time is search for more parts to buy so that I can make her even faster and better than before....

I ride my GSX-R and that keeps me going but if they were both down and I were forced to roll my wife's Tc, I would probably take lots of leave from work and panhandle to get the parts I need!!!
