ahaha.. mine is in my garage....stinking up my freaking house.

They did have a black one that was not sold as of this morning, so it sounded like they may have given it a slight wringing...

"Man...that thing is scary fast"...ahahah.. how did they know that without beating on it.

At least my car only had 7 abused miles at pickup.

Hit 110mph (still under 5000rpm) on the way home pretty easily.

I think the blue one is taken

I think that some guy from FL is coming after the blue one. I did not know what colors are even available. I was pretty thrilled to get the Silver one

I tell you, I took the EVO to my old Miata friends at RSpeed and they just loved it! Hector, the tech, took a Miata off the lift and put mine on it. We put it up and checked it all out. He pointed out several important details about Mitsubishi problem areas and how to prevent problems, etc.
Apparently, the EVO as well as other Mitsus really like to have their oil changed frequently. There is a small banjo fitting and a tiny tube that feeds oil to the turbo, it apparently can get clogged and the turbo dies from lack of lubrication!!

Exclamation Sell it to Carmax

Man, what are you waiting for? Sell it to Carmax. They gave me $16.3K for my WRX and it saved me $1.4+K in sales tax! man, that's not bad, almost $18K in trade..... I only had to write $14.7K check and I was out the door...
