My 2006 MR ^^.

Hello my first time posting here, and i just purchased a Apex Silver 2006 Evolution IX MR. This was my first manual trans. car so im am currently going slow ^^. Trying to learn the car, plus ive read a lot about doing a easy break in, so its for the best. I bought it out the door for 34.5K... I had a 2004 Lexus IS300(AUTO) which i got 21.5K for trade-in. Then i payed off the remainder which was like 13K give or take. I love the car, its very fast and the downgrade in interrior really didnt bother me that much. I was going to turbo my IS300, but it was a lost cause, too much money for not good enough 1/4 mile.(car weighs too much + it was auto) So here ya go my new car ^^:

don't listen to any of these guys, my evo was my first manual and you don't need to worry about the clutch or the warantee(I got it when I was 18). My clutch is perfect at 30k. Beautiful car, be nice to it and ignore the haters.

Ha ha, not likely. Look at that neighborhood. If he breaks it, I don't think he'll be short on funds to fix it.
