Unhappy 2nd thought about getting an Evo.

Until, I called up the dealer that has been helping me and told the sales manager that I was having 2nd thoughts about the Evo. because I didn't get to really test drive the car.

Well they invited me out and gave me a Yellow Evo. for 30-45 mins. and I really got a chance to see how the car responds, pulls, and handles. and was I sold.

I went from 1st thru 4th hard while merging into traffic on the hwy, and was VERY impressed. And then flowed with traffic and you should of saw the looks the car gets esspecially from those who know what it is.

On the way back to the dealer, I ran into a Z06 Vette at the light, but he turned off. But it was funny because he looked at the car like I was in a Diablo.

The car is the most exciting car I have driven on the street.

Now all I have to do is choose between Red, Yellow, and Silver

I got them down so far to $28500 w sunroof, I tried $27500 but...

if $1000 is the difference between deal and no deal, then perhaps you're looking at the wrong car to buy?

but yeh, 28500 is a good price

I could have swore I typed evolutionm.net, but somehow I got supraforums.

j/k

Seriously though, 28.5 is a good price (barring there are no weird stipulations, and you got a good interest rate). Good luck deciding on the color

Yellow is way to common and so is silver. Red is rarer. But I have a rally red and it looks good at night time or daytime. But if I were you, I would wait for a blue or white. Those are the hotter colors on the evo. Trust me, you wont regret it. Just be a little more patient and wait. Good luck in getting your evo soon. 28.5 is a good deal with moon roof. I say try them 27.5. Especially now, you can get it invoice or below invoice. Oh yea, why dont you take a look at the STI. hehehe, I wouldn't mind one myself. Peace...

Question Cost not factor, the truck I am trading is

Price is not the reason I had second thoughts, I just have alot planned when it comes to toys.

I am currently building a Turbo Hayabusa motorcycle to drag race, and I had a friend offer me a good deal on a enclosed trailer that would require me to keep my Tundra which I had planned on trading on the Evo. This is why I had second thoughts, due to keeping the truck and getting the trailer.

Besides, I am waiting on a new property to close, that should of closed on the 5th of Jan. 04, and was going to go buy the Evo. back in Oct. 03. My 1st test drive was with a older gentlemen and I didn't get to let the car stretch it's legs, and fell any boost.

But that has changed with my most recent test drive
