What kind of car...

What kind of car(s) did u have before u got an evo. And would u go back?

As for me:

'93 Acura integra
'01 Suzuki gsxr600
'04 Honda 600RR
'07 Nissan 350Z
'10 evo X

I still have my Z but I'm spoiled by the X. I dd the X, coz it's much quirkier than the Z, so I let my sister borrow the Z.

08 Range Rover Sport Supercharged

Would I got back to mustangs? Well they are cheap to mod and own and fun 'cause they are torquey, but probably not. Would I got back to the Maxima? No, it was a fun project at the time and I tend to love 4 door sport cars, but it's kinda like been there done that . Would I got back to a RR? Absolutely... it guzzles gas, tires are expensive as hell but it was a great ride, I love my luxury SUV's, but it was time to downsize as I have a family now and the Range was too big for my wife so she now drives the SUV in the family (Lexus RX) and I now have the X (which I love) and it's still 4 door so it's family approved

... and just a little side note, my lil 5 month old son, LOVES riding in the Evo... the movement and slight exhaust note puts him right to sleep

my next mod... Recaro baby seat...

1) Mazda 323 GT (favorite car with the most memories)
Intake, custom catback, diy engine mounts, corksport suspension goodies.
2) Accent GSI, catback, intake... had it for a year untill something in the suspension was going Clunk! everytime i turned left. traded in for next car
3) Elantra GT, sway bars, engine mounts, 4 point harness, TWM shifter with underhood bushing kit, catback, Cold air intake. underdrive pully that i eventually took out. riced out "hyper ground wire kit" summer set of 17" wheels.. Auto x'ed this car as well as 1/4mile 15.8 thought that was a fairly decent time for our altitude i was always a couple tenths behind the Sir's and rsx type s. stock ones of course.
4) 04 Volvo V70R amazing car but bought it used and the previous owners didn't do any maintenance.. cost me an arm and a leg.. i still maintain that it was faster from 100km/hr to 200km/hr than my evo x .. it also ran 14.3 in the qm my mr ran 13.42 this summer.. next year id like to get it down to low 13's high 12's we'll see
5)newest car 2011 evo mr. i'm loving it so far.. sometimes it's a pain.. tiny trunk no room for ski's but we'll see how things go this winter. i have a roof rack and getting a luggage rack thingy to put ski's/snowboards in. + put amazing tires on can't wait for more snow! way too fun!
