I sold my IX for a X...I wanted a newer/nicer car. If I were to sell the X it would be for a GT-R

I have no intention of -ever- selling my Evo. If I put it into a wall and totaled it beyond repair I might consider getting a GT-R instead, but its the only car I would really consider.

My wife blessed me to trade the Evo for an R8... Not sure she knows the cost but it was a moment I'll remember. My next toy would likely be an TT RS or an R8.

^^Haha those things are really expensive to maintain. I know my buddy had to change a PS hose on his RS4 the dealer literally tried to charge him 600 dollars for a piece of rubber.

GTR...etc is really expensive,but all the money we spent on our cars to make them fun street or track cars is priceless when you past someone up in a really expensive car!

My evo saved my bothers , gfs, and my life. We were on our way to get her tuned, some drunk chic came up an off ramp (wrong way) onto the interstate and desintegrated the suv in front of us. Thanks to awd and great brembos we managed to avoid head on with her, skid across three lanes of interstate and only crack a headlight in the guard rail. So unless she was demolished I would trade her for anything.

But still an Audi.

I sold my Audi to get an 8. If I ever sold it, it would have to be for another Audi. MAYBE bagged truck but highly doubt the wife will aprove another one.
