Happy 1-year Evo-versary

There are so many threads along the lines of "Hey, just got the Evo". How about a thread for those people who've owned an Evo for a full twelve months?

Please share your thoughts after owning the best car in the world for a year.

Happy Birsthday to mine.... happy birthday to mine.... (3/19).

Mine is just under 10,000 miles and zero problems. I feed it yummy 93 octane (for the cal guys - na na na na), wash it weekly, garage it nightly and wax it monthly. It is not my daily driver, so every mile on my car is for fun only!! I still get it in with a smile and leave with a SEG.

She'll be 1 year old the 31st. 7,700 miles daily driver. Garage kept and washed and vacumed weekly. No problems at all except minor one, lt. front strut area making a slight rattling noise over bumps? Other than that not one thing wrong. And I do drive it!

I forget when I bought my Evo... is that like forgetting your GF's birthday?

I know I bought it in early-mid March right after they came into town. It should be a year old now, I just can't remember the exact date. 23K miles on the clock.

Will be a year in April sometimes (don't remember), 12.5k and no problems what so ever. As a matter of fact, I just got the registration and emission to renew. Unfortunately it will cost $432 to renew the tags. Oh, well...at least is tax deductible if you are a home owner. Don't hardly wash it, wax it like once. But hey, still running and looking fine.
