Funny compared to your situation because my girlfriend liked the Cobra more at first but I had my mind set on an Evo. Of course she fell in love after experiencing the handling and lack of wheel spin in the rain.

I thought it was cool that I won her over, then she jokingly said that she likes it because no other women will be looking at me.

Im 20... started with an eclipse at 16, then two s2000s along side a 350z mixed in and an FD RX7. Which one was the best? You guessed it- Evo all the way!
