8 Years Later: Still an Evo Owner:

Hey Everyone,


Been a LONG time since I've posted anything on these forums let alone show off my cars. Since most people here won't know/remember me I'll do a fresh start for my Evo IX. The car is pretty much complete as of right now as I have a Mitsubishi Mirage project that takes over all my time and funds for the time being haha. I've owned the car since July 2006 when it had 5 miles off of it (Even got to drive it off the truck since I worked at the dealer haha) and its currently almost at 69,000 Miles. It is my pride and joy.


The Car:
2006 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IX MR Wicked White
Mods:
AEM Short Ram Intake
Ported o2 Housing
Nesis Hard Piping Kit and Mini Battery Tray
Esplier Down Pipe
RRE Rally Cat
GReddy TI Cat Back Exhaust
HKS Turbo Timer
GramLight 57 Maximum Time Attack Wheels
Falken ZT690 Tires
Ralliart Replica front lip (Black)
Rxspeed CF Mirror Covers
Rxspeed CF Side Skirt Splats
Evo VIII CF Wing (Black)
JDM Evo VIII Rear Tail Lights
JDM Evo IX Rear Bumper
eBay LED interior Lighting Kit and license plate
Gauge Cluster Overlay

BFD. I have had mine 11 years since new and a heck of a lot more miles than your hangar queen.

Yours does look better than mine but then again mine gets used regularly. It's not afraid of a few scratches from use.

I've had mine since March of 06 also. I have the same overlay on. My gauges. They stopped making them a long time ago. I now have about 200k miles on mine and love it as much as day one.
