Thinking About Trading My IX For A Terminator
My F***** tranny keeps on pissing me off.
My 5th started grinding than got Mitsu to fix it. A week later it started grinding again. My clutch went out a month ago got it replaced. After going on the highway 3 weeks later. I was speeding a little went from 3rd to 4th got the nastiest grind. Now my 4th grinds worse than my 5th. I know I can go to Shep and get my tranny rebuilt. But I still have worries I will break my t-case. I'm prob going to put my car back to stock than go to a Ford dealer and get a 03-04 Cobra. If they give me a even trade. I want a freak of a car and to match the power of what pullied Cobra's make I will need a big turbo. Sure from the dig we can get them but it just BS that one bad/hard launch can F up our drive train. Sorry about the long rant. I still haven't made up my mind yet. It seems like I could still get talked out of trading the Evo. |
hell, i'm thinking about getting a used 03' m3 w/ a better warranty and getting rid of my evo. mitsubishi's warranty sucks ass.

Regardless if I wanted to get my gears fixed, its to late to because I have a upgraded clutch now. Sucks that I'm scared to go to the track and run my car because of my clutch going out or breaking my tranny.
BTW BMW has the best warranties.{thumbup} |
I agree Mistubishi's warranties do suck!Its your choice to get what you want as far as a car.Just don't regret the choice you make after its done though.Good luck!

If only I can afford a 335i. :( |
You have a good mind set, my next car will either be a 03-04 cobra or a new vette so probably a cobra :)

keep the evo. You are going to be very hard pressed to find a dealer that would give you an even trade. The dealer is gonna want to give you bottom dollar on your car, and top dollar on the cobra. Get some meth and some cams on your 9 get a good tune, and get ure tranny taken care of and call it a day.

I was looking at Cobras while I was looking for an Evo. Evo just fit me, since it has 4 doors, more all weather friendly, etc.

Meth and Tune...I dont think I could live without AWD again...I just love it. I have driven and worked on a 800WHP Turbo 03' Cobra. Its fun to drive but you can wreck that b!tch in a hurry. The Evos are rare...and the faces people make when you walk away from them is priceless. Im shooting for 550WHP with my Evo. A 550HP Evo will just about murder anything on the street. PS. A 550 WHP Cobra will have traction problems even from a roll (depending on speed). Plus if you get wheel hop you can break the IRS axels pretty quick.
