1 year anniversary with my Evo 9 :)

Wanted to share my news cause you guys truly will appreciate it.

So on Sept 16, it was one year since I bought my Evo from Utah. I spent a few days in Vegas killing time with my friend and my dad.

This time last year i was on my way crossing the border into Canada

Bought it with 32,000 miles, I now have 48,xxx miles.

So i wanna buy a little gift for it. This weekend im gonna get a shop to roll my rear fenders cause everytime i hit a bump it rubs and its sooooo annoying!! I think i owe it to myself, my car and my tires to get that **** fixed lol

Also im thinking of buying a rear sway bar... still deciding, dunno if the install is hard or not.

I didnt wanna buy parts but ya my evo deserves it! This winter is SAVE! SAVE! SAVE!

Turbo upgrade ftw!

Congratulations man

You know it's kind of funny, if normal people saw this, they would probably think only a crazy person could feel this way about a car or some other inanimate object, but I'm pretty sure we all understand exactly how you feel about it hahaha

Any excuse to buy parts is good, don't even need one! Is that an excuse or a statement?

provincial taxes + federal taxes (7-15% depending what province you live in) + 6.1% duties for a japanese car + random import document fees and inspection (~$200-300)
