Who cares if you bought it for the performance, or racing. That's boring crap. They want stylez, big wings, neons so the boyze will be jelus.

2F2F style all da way!!
Mostly for advertisment to sell GT4 ...but other than that brian looked cool on MTV

Yeah, everyone has a different reason for buying the car. It sounds like it was scripted though. Was it Brian? Just curious.

Stayed up last night to watch it and was late for work today!

So the video game clips of the white EVO was from GT4? The countdown was for GT3 yet they showed no clips from it!?

Hey,

Do you guys remember MTV sending an E-mail out for anyone who bought an evo and owned Gran Turismo? Well I did cuz I was picked to be on MTV with my EVO.

They came to my house and filmed me for like 6 hours then came another day and filmed for like 3 more. They got tons of shots of the EVO and me playing the game. Thanks to VIVID RACING and quantum racing me car was looking great with a ton of mods. I mentioned Evom.net, vivid, quantum, dynoflash, and some other stuff

Oh and I had Evom.net on my PC when they filmed my computer

Heres the dates and times:

Hey I saw that!! Good Show! Nice looking ride. You should have done some real awd drifts for the camra.

Eric

Your blow off valve sounded awesome when they showed you cranking down the street! The gal before you that did that exercise game seemed to have a lot more time.

I don't mean anything offensive in my statement, but I think the main reason they chose hooptie over others is because of his African American background and also you don't see many African Americans that would like the Evo. I guess they did it because of the uniqueness I dunno. Anyway, congratulations mane
