when i go to the bathroom at home, i always swing by, open the garage, and check up on her....

when she gets dirty, i can't wait to wash her....

when i wash her, i can't wait until she gets dirty again....

....i seldom dream about the day when i pick up another EVO , just for kicks....and just to tell everyone i have 2 of them ....... EVO IX?....maybe......who knows......


obsessed?....a little.....but i've never had this big of an attachment to any car.....

.........no......


.....i'm not bored yet..........

Never. The only car I will buy after this is an 04, 911, GT2. I will keep the Evo for a daily driver AWD rules the world.

yea i'm a car freak like that, but i have not grown tired of my evo yet... had it for like 3 months now, but it was my first brand new car purchased off a car lot... though it was 2 years old never sold... i'm now looking to sell my is300 lexus and get a 2005 pathfinder ... ive had all kinds of cars, and this seems to be the most potent of them all (had an rx7 twin turbo which in stock form was maybe a tad faster) i just wish we had some feature like the SUVs where we could turn on 4wd or 2wd with a button so we could have even more 2wd fun :-)

As with anything, you get used to it. When you get into a faster car, it feels really fast. If you drive that car for a year you get used to the performance and lust after more. It is a sickness, it is contagious and expensive -- but ever so worth it.

The only car I have ever owned that I have not felt this with is my Caterham Superlight. It is either that the experience is so raw or that the car is so fast. That and I don’t drive it on a daily basis -- so I guess I can’t get bored.
i also went from a wrx to an evo... and evo stock was stonger than my fairly modded wrx... exciting first drive...

As I stated in another thread, I was beginning to get bored with the Evo, but I went out and bought a 1988 civic HB for $800 as a daily driver...Nothing made my Evo more fun to drive than driving a slow-*** beater all week long! Best $800 I ever spent. Now I look forward to driving the Evo instead of it just being the daily grind.

Hel* No!! Every drive feels like the first time. This is the first car that I can say I enjoy driving everytime/anytime. Never any problems and always puts a smile on my face. And everytime I drive someone elses car or my other car I find myself wishing I was back in my Evo and always thinking how much better my Evo is compared to all the others.
