Nope traded a 91 Chevy pickup with 250K on it that i had for 9 years.

I took apart my baby, a 2002 SC'd civic si with over $15k in parts. Used the money for the DP and basically broke even on the trade.

2002 Z06 405HP. Yeah, sometimes I regret it. Especially when the Evo has been sitting in the garage for 2 months. Don't ask. Search, you'll find out why. :D

PHILLY EVO Oct 28, 2005 09:08 AM

I traded in my 2000 dodge stratus. One hel of a long distance ride, but definitly not my EVIE. Oh and alot of heart ache and ass chewing frommy wife. But the cost of me driving it: PRICELESS

Not only that but I miss driving!!!! I've never owned a car that has had so much downtime, mainly due to waiting and defective part.

To put it into perspective, in a year I have put about 1k miles on the car. :lol:

05evo Oct 28, 2005 09:11 AM

for the record I probably wouldn't have an Evo today if it wasn't for New England winters hahah, oh well I love it.

maverick92482 Oct 28, 2005 09:13 AM

i traded in a 91 chev k1500 and my baby, a 89' f250 wtih dual straight pipes and glass packs(god i miss that sound) :crap:

But i never regret it, i would do it all over again in a heartbeat

Jeff_Jeske Oct 28, 2005 09:15 AM

I had a 98 GSX that was replaced by the EVO mainly because I was afraid it was gonna blow up! 138k low 12 second miles on the stock 7 bolt motor. The EVO is 10x the car the GSX was and my insurance actually went down! LOL -- I haven't looked back.
