Great looking ride congrats! Looks good in any color it seems. Not a big fan of that front lip that comes with the aero kit however

My 05 sti, was stock and my buddies evo 8 has a catback exhaust. Now its obvious that our evo x feels slower with 3 total people in the car, and a few bags.

Botton line once I am back in south florida and we hit up moroso, we will have some numbers to compare.

Again I am VERY happy with this Evo X, and would prefer this one to the other two cars.

On our way to Longview, TX. Then Biloxi for some more GAMBLING.

YEEHAW

As far as the looks it has grown on me so much more. I am truly enjoying this Evolution X. Check out the pics..

Sorry its an index but it was tough doing that in the car.

If you want bro send me the login info and ill sexify the webpage for you, or we can work on it when you guys get back. Its interesting to hear the X feels slower, an unfortunate side effect of all the luxery addons. But I know what that means, youll be hitting the power mods in a month or so.

It has an altimeter??? That's sick. Grats on the purchase, you should swing by Orl. to a Proccolino's meet on your way through FL. Good luck on the rest of your trip.

Thanks for all the kind comments everyone.

Its good to be an EVO owner. I cant wait to get home and move my wifes car out of the garage and park the EVO X next to my Z06.

PM me for Pricing details from Hunginton Beach, CA details.

I am heading into Lousiana in a few minutes, but I wanted to clear up someone. My buddy Jason with his EVo 8 fixed the website with the pics.

So the currenty easy to view site with all the current pics is

www.acewolf.com

once it loads it has the slideshow option.

Hope you all enjoy.

Ill update later.

Thanks
Allen, Judy, and Brad.

Made it to Biloxi, MS. We drove into New Orleans, and down canal street and watched all the wild and crazy people on bourbon street. Pretty amazing what took place and the lack of rebuilding. I've been through 3 hurricanes in south florida, but none with flooding. Very depressing to see the devistation after so long. After a few hours we were on our way to Biloxi, MS for our last night stay of the trip.

The Evo X has been great with the horrible weather we have been going through.
I am going to take good pictures of the interior, the seats, and the plastic that everyone is complaining about.

My only interior complaint would be with the front recaros, the side bolsters are felt after so many hours of sitting in them. I guess its because I am 6'1 and 210. But the Sparcos in my Supra never felt that way.

They feel great for the first few hours, but after 6-12 hours sitting hurts like hell.

We will be passing through Ocala, tomorrow down toward Miami Lakes by the evening, 13 hours left.

It seems like my wife, wants to spend some money in the casino, so time to hit up the Craps tables.

Thanks for reading.

Allen, Judy, & Brad
