Well after 3 years I'm Back!

I have regretted selling my 2006 Apex Silver EVO IX for the past 3 years when I sold it in 07. I went through a few cars during that time span trying to make myself happy again:

2007 Chevrolet Silverado 1500
2008 Mazda Speed 3
2003 Mustang Mach 1
2003 Mini Cooper S
2003 Mustang Cobra

Out of all those cars the mini was the most fun and the Cobra had a good amount of power (508rwhp and 532rwtq straight 93 pump). I was never a big 1/4 guy, but more of a handling guy. I had the mini on a few track days

I took the plunge yesterday and went to Bell Mitsubishi in Rahway NJ. Got the deal I wanted and left with a 2010 Wicked White EVO X SSS with 3 miles on the odometer.

This is going to be my DD. I regret selling my IX but I also regret not driving the car in two years I sold it with 6,000 miles.

I plan to do 20% window tint, swift springs and wheels. Then I am just going to enjoy the car for what it is.

BTW: If anyone is looking for an honest dealership in NJ Bell Mitsubishi did me right. I have bought a lot of cars, EVO X being 15! Honest group of guys and lay everything on the table, no games no BS. I went to Buhler Mitsubishi in Eatontown NJ where I know the owner figuring I would get a good deal. I was told that the EVO X is too hot of a car and they are getting $4k over sticker. I laughed and walked out. Next I went to Allstar Mistbishi and was told the same BS story. They told me that they would sell me the car for Sticker price of $36,780. I said no and walked out. Bell gave me the deal I wanted and threw in a set of Mudguards at no cost to me and the first 2 oil changes free. They also have the largest EVO inventory with about 9 EVO X (well make that 8 now). I in no way work for them nor am I affiliated with them, just letting the NJ guys know my experience and maybe save them some time and BS.

Did you trade either the Cobra or the Mini toward your Evo?

Cobra was bought by the owner of the dealership himself and the mini was traded.

Make sure you get a tune along with all your springs and wheels.

Not sure if I want to have Ivey tune my X. I want to have ZERO problems with my warranty, tune will obviously affect that. Yes I can flash it back to stock and I know of a way to flash the PCM and put a stock code in we will see.

Why do you say make sure to get a tune, for more power or bc there is a problem with the stock tune.

Congrats on your new ride and welcome back to the Evo family. Can't say I agree with you about Bell though, they were complete douchebags to me from the sales guy to the sales manager.

Sometimes you need to jump over the fence and try something else to learn that you had the right thing the first time!!!

Hey Frank. Thanks again and I am glad everything worked out for the best! I think your buddy is closing on the IX either today or tomorrow.
