For all you other young guys (21 and under) how are so many of you affording evos?! Even the ones that said they bought it themselves, did you work 2 part times just to afford one or are your parents rich and you get a buttload of money on your birthday? I could only dream of owning one in hs or even in college.
I got a loan for mine when I graduated high school wasn't ready for college yet so I got a decent paying job and a evo. No big birthday presents or Christmas presents. My car was actually way newer and nicer then my parents

24. I bought a 05 WW VIII as a late birthday gift to myself.

Then at 26 I bought myself a 06 WW IX MR after I sold the first Evo.
