I'm think im a true Evo fan
 
Me and my parents been talking about a evo for a while, looked at a lot at dealerships and looked at one with only 2800 miles privately. But after all this, my mom scared that the Evo will basically corrupt me. She offered both the new TL and the G35, but I still denied her and still want the Evo... I think theres something wrong with me.

Does anybody have any reasons I can give her to prove to her that I will not ride in the "fast lane" all the time, or convince her that I will not perform any dumb actions?

Tell her that it will help you study harder {thumbup}.

to be honest, the other 2 were on my list as well, and they are both much more "sensible" cars. and they both have awesome service departments. .. but if someone else is buying, i'd take whatever i can get.

Sadly, that probably would be true because I'm totally sad after last Sunday where we were suppose to go buy that Evo with 2800 miles, but my mom said to stall him out to see if he will drop it from 24.5k to 24k. But my parents say, patience will get you what you want, and I believe that, but damn, its a evo.

<----- Same situation....... mom said fine well get the car but a few conditons entailed.

1. i had to ride with her shotgun for 6 months =/
2. i pay for every damn penny for everything to do with car.
3. Have to stay on temp licence to ensure that #1 is complete.

Run some of that by her ..... sound ****ty but my GF dont mind the backseat for now.
and mom makes a pretty good allarm system to (leave her in the car for movies).

but hey 2 months left and counting and i have my car.

i must be getting old cause i agree w/ your moms. i waited 2 years before i could get leather and a good deal. i was patient enough to buy an evo in cali and have it shipped to hawaii(w/o ever seeing it) so i wouldn't get ripped off by our 1 dealer.

My mom definitely has her reason though, since she has hook ups at service departments and my uncle is a Honda/Acura mechanic she wants the TL. And the G35, I'm really not sure why she wants that.

damn when I looked at an evo, I would have done that too if it meant I got the damn thing, but the only one around me was 44k for a stock LY with leather
