Ditto that OP. Check my sig! REGRETS, REGRETS, REGRETS!!!
Even after all the cars i have had.

I thought of selling the evo so many times. first car i really haven't modded. 1g built 16g 97 gst, supercharged 01 teg, then decided to get out 03 G35 sedan nismo body kit, moved to 06 evo ix. haven't moved since. it's a great car, a lot more expensive in mods no real mods put into the car but that is going to change soon enough. a lot happier with slow modding but would be nice to have a sexy evo like the rest!

I sold my 2006 EVO IX and went through the following cars:

1. Chevrolet Silverado 1500
2. Mazdaspeed3
3. Mustang Mach 1
4. 2003 Mustang Cobra
5. Mini Cooper S


Sold them all and went back to a 2010 X. None of those cars did it for me like the EVO. I spent thousands of dollars modifying them for nothing. If you sell it, you will be back.

I contemplate selling the Evo all the time. Yesterday the gf and I went on a hunt looking for an X5 4.8is as a replacement but none of the dealers locally has one available.

Sold mine, found the guy who bought it from me and bought it back! Won't make that mistake again.

A true believer with rallying in his blood would never sell.
However I can see that the OP is looking for a more relaxed ride and I can appreciate that too especially if the commute is long with lots of traffic. Different tools for different jobs. Good luck in your search.

At one point, I was caught up between selling my "fast" srt-4 because I wanted something new, something chill and out of the race scene. Long behold after months of thinking, I went with something that I knew would make me happy. The evo was my choice. One because I didn't want a slow car, and two, I knew I would get bored again fast of a car considered chill and boring. Change is all about what makes you happy. Don't get into something that you know won't.

Well if any of you are still deciding if you want to sell your evo and get a "chill" car you could always sell it to me

Id never sell mine nor consider it. The only other car Id really consider getting right now would be a turbo foxbody or a turbo or supercharged Z06. And I still wouldnt sell my Evo to get either of those.
