"starting with having some kinda DSM power... value or worth"


What the hell is that supposed to mean. An EVO is'nt even a DSM.

I suppose I need some kinda "street cred." to have an opinion.

All I'm doing is stating the obvious, the pics say a thousand words. Would I buy a 30k car thats been wrenched on by someone who does not have enough sense to not route a plastic coated ground wire across an exhaust heat shield? Hell no.

The cosmetics are subjective, sure,some people probably like them. I do not. Thats my opinion. Thats why this is an open forum.

Modded?!?!? It has aftermarket wheels and some grounding wires. If that's modded, you better void my warranty now.

Oh yeah, it's ugly as ****.

Hater? How am I "hating" on that car? It's UGLY! Why should I be jealous of an ugly car? Mine looks better on the outside and it's stock! (except for the S2K antenna, which you seem to have already mentioned) I'll let the other posts "hating" on that waste of a perfectly good car speak as my defense.

I gotta to say, i do agree with that.....one little pot hole or even a slight dip in the road could do some damage on those 19" rims and rubberbands for tires!

Its a good concept, but It would be nice if more Mitsu dealers would sponser **proven** vendors in their local state, like a dealership in Ohio sponser parts from David Buschur, or Pruven in AZ.

i've only ever heard bad things about arospeed.

i really dislike graphics on a stock looking car. especially the "tear across the side of the car" graphics to try to convince people that the car is going so fast that the side of the car will actually rip due to the speed and force with which the car is hurtling through streets. but whatever, that's me. the interior engine bay shot looks terrible; it looks amateur and rushed.

Rally style? What? Maybe after it's been driven into a tree. Those are the graphics you can pick up on eBay for $9.99 and they're ugly; nothing rally about them.

it's the right style of rim but a lil too big for racing... the graphics are garbage, the ground wires are, well... WHY?!?! and the intake is the only positive point, but not from Arospeed.. maybe HKS, Apex, or Greddy...

LOL, this whole thread sounds like me posting over and over! **** I thought I was the biggest ***** but I have to give my crown to some here. I do have to say if I did see that car for sale on the lot I would NEVER buy it. The intake does look like ****, and the kid who did the install left some red liquorish over the heat shield.
