Actually, here is a picture of said Evo.

They had 3K on it, but they are straight up and will work with you. Good people. I worked directly with Steve Simmons (Sales Manager). I took the only one they had and don't know what they expect to get in.

I did make a offer to buy it at MSRP. oh and when this all happen it was befor u started working at metro
And maybe if you where working their at the time i was spoted by this might of not happen..
I forgot the dealers name but he was a black guy had a pix of his 2 kid on his desk.

At that time they had 1 silver no sunroof. the guy told me the only way he will sell me the car was if i buy the $5999 package.
Then i said it cost to much i just wanted to buy a plan stock one,then he said wait and let him go talk to his boss
he came back and said ok but... i have to buy the pitpass with it that. its the only way hell sell it to me, sooo... we started talking about price. and his final offer is 32500. So i left, drove 25 mile to brokedale. And the chic there,and yes it was a chic she offer to sell it to me at 200 under MSRP 30,500. but then allso made me buy a pitpass for 1650$. so that day i saw that her offer a silver one with sunroof and pitpass was still a better deal then Metro offfer me so i didnt care to pay 1650 for the pitpass,but later on i found out that the pitpass contract can be cancel and they return my 1k, so i really ended up
spending$ 31,150 thats with sunroof and the 9 pass pitpass.

Sorry to call u a liar but.. at the time i stop by that was the deal i was offer.

EVO - what DONT you like?

Hey everybody, i'm kinda new around here as I am to the EVO world. I currently drive an '02 s2000, and I do love it. However, the EVO is a car that defines everything I could ever want out of a performance vehicle, and lately I have been thinking about making the trade. I'm in a comfortable situation right now with my honda, and I would have to pull some strings and do some things to get rid of the car. Needless to say it is a very tough decision. Handling is the most important factor to me, and while the S2000 may not have just quite as much as the EVO, it has plenty of it.

Okay enough background, what I want to know is what bothers you about the EVO. What are you unhappy with on a day-to-day basis? I did test drive the evo, but we all know that one test drive simply doesn't give you the full story, not even close! Ideally I would like to trade with someone that has an evo for couple days to get a feel for the car in everyday driving conditions, but I don't know anyone that has one, nor have I even seen one on the road. so you guys tell me, is there anything at all that bothers you about this magnificent car?

I dont like the dust that gets on the dash when it is not cleaned. -Also the car hurts my neck and back from the acceleration and -fast turn capabalities
yeah man where are you located where you dont see them? Plus i wouldnt let any one drive my evo for a few days, maybe for a few minutes. There really is nothing not to like except getting beat up for beating those m3's

i'm down in south florida and my s2000 is bone stock, but I truly love the car's personality. VERY fun on an everyday basis, cruising, speeding, turning, doesn't matter if you're going fast or slow the s2000 has a very high chill factor. I drove the EVO once and was obviously blown away by its performance, but I dont know anything about how fun it is on a daily basis.

When I get to work every day my coworkers have to slap the silly grin off of my face or it will stick like that for the rest of the day. True, in the near future, I won't be driving it everyday to work but that is only because I don't want to put too many miles on it up front. I test drove the S2K and liked it but I am getting to the age of possibly starting a family so 2 doors is out. The S2K was very very nice but the Evo, to me anyway, feels like it could run circles around it. (Stated as opinion, not fact so take it for that)
