24 Have it since May. It's my first car too, couldn't have picked a better car for my first. Riding motorcycle and borrow family car get old after awhile. It's a great feeling when I can go anywhere in my own car.

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.
knew it was the car of my dreams so, I saved for 2 years and put 12k down in cash=) but still owe 5k on it lol

I was 17 when I took out a loan on my first white one. It was an '05 with 50,000 miles and so clean. I miss it

Now I'm 20 and have my second blue one. It helps me get over my white one lol

Just curious as to how old you guys were when you got into your first evo?
21 going for full built when I turn 22.
