Just Picked Up My Evo viii!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi guys and girls,

Words can't describe the feeling I have right now after drving my EVO from the dealer back to work!!!! Knowing that it's waiting for me in the garage is unbelievable!!! For those interested, I got a Tarmac Black EVO with 21 miles on it. Has Spoiler, Sun Roof, and Gauges. Had the dealer move the stock stereo down to the lower compartment, so the gauges could go on top!!! Here's the deal:

EVO VIII 21 miles
Gauges/relocated
Spolier
Sunroof= $29,400

Traded-in my paid off OZ for $10,000

Extended warranty $850

Taxes, Title, Registration

final price financed at 5.99% 21,500

Do you guys think this is a good deal?

Doesn't matter cause I've got an EVO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My son's reaction

BTW, I happened to see a Tarmac Evo this morning around MIT area. Hope it is you. I don't normally see a Tarmac Evo around that area.

For the guys in the Northeast, what did you do with the stock tires and rims for the winter? Did you use them year round, and how were they in the snow?

do NOT use the stock tires in the winter. they are the worst tire ever in the snow and i am not kidding. i use the stock rims with the conti all season tire and it worked great in Boston snow and ice.

ok, thanks. Did you change the tires yourself or have someone do it? What does that do to the tire and rims? Any damage?

you can't do it yourself unless you have the tire machine but i can send you to some good shops in the area that will take good care of you and your rims. i have a few friends with the machine so i should be able to save you money and keep your rims nice and dandy. you can also ask the dealer to do it for you.

You can't change car tires without special equipment.. I bought tires from Tire Rack (Continental Extreme Contact) and brought them to a local shop who mounted and balanced them on the stock rims for about 80 bucks.
