When I bought it I was a 24 year old U.S. Army Sergeant.

You guys are some young-uns when you got your Evos.



Just make sure you are ready for the:

1) Insurance & 2) Upkeep (Evos are maintenence ******)

Just a word of warning. Don't be suprised if your monthly insurance is $300.00+

A 15/16 year old with a "4 Door, 4 Cylinder, ***TURBO***" doesn't look well in insurance companies eyes.

Besides that, go for it.
+1, i got mine when i got back from iraq, got it brand new in 05...

Just got mine a week ago..I'm 19.
First car was at age 16, 1994 Chevy Beretta. (Parents Bought)
Second car was at age 18, 2001 Jeep Grand Cherokee. (I bought)
Third car was at age 19, 1997 Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX. (I bought)

Had the GSX for a few months. Suddenly I wanted an Evo, so I traded my Eclipse + cash (loan) for it!
I'm in love with it so far and will have it for a while!
