I love my Evo but I miss my old car

Traded in my Vette about 7 months ago. I'm feeling a tad bit of regret.

Traded in this (no regrets at all)


for this

then this

I would too if I were you. But at least the Evo is a better all season car. They both have great potential!

I've been feeling like that lately too, and all I had was a NA RX-8. I would probably feel worse if I gave up a vette for the evo.

never regret anything, they are both very different cars, its just an experience, if you really miss your vette that much just wait a few years then pick up a z06 =) problem solved...

I've never missed my SRT-4 for even a minute but I do miss my 1993 MR2 Turbo. That car was fun and built like a rock.

I miss my NA RX8 as well, such a fun fun car to drive. the G37S coupe was a nice step in the right direction though, torque ftw

You went from the vette to an automatic??
You should have gotten the gsr man, and then modded it with an fp red and you would be just as fast as the vette. I'm jealous though you've had an excellent array of autos. What kind of power did that g put out?

I have always felt like the RX-8 is a VERY overrated car. Nice looking, but WAYYY down on power... when some minivans can come close to beating you in the 1/4, there's something wrong.

Vettes are awesome, but I just can't get over the image problem... Too many overweight, middle-aged guys own that car. You could say the Vette's only problem is their customers! (I mean no offense to the OP, I really do like the Vette!)

If they made a bodykit option to disguise it, I'd buy one!
