Evo ownership, since 2004

A snap shot of my 2003 Evo that I've owned since 2004. It's been through 100+ degree California summers, and -5 degree Tahoe winters. No other car has been as capable and rewarding as the Evo.

Just hit 200,000 miles and have been boosting the 9 turbo to 30 psi for awhile now (91 octane). Doesn't smoke, and still just burns the quart of oil between oil changes that she always has since I got her at 9,000 miles.

Here's to another 100,000 more miles. Because though I own three other cars, I always end up driving the Evo.

Stock block, headgasket, and headstuds. The 4G63 IS a BEAST!

I'm w you bro! I only have 110K, but bought my 03 in 2004 and run it daily with same result. I am hoping to put another 50K or so on the odo. . . or just keep it forever.

Bury me in my EVO!

jesus... my 06 has 48k as a DD... I would poop myself if my odometer read 200k, i actually never wanted to see 40 but spent to much on upgrades to pay it off as soon as i wanted... finally buying a new car next week so she's getting stored, well not stored... just not driven to work.
