Newborn...

Hey all, just brought home a brand new Evo IX MR with only 44 miles on it (granted, probably 44 abusive, hardcore-driven miles from people with no respect nor money to afford it lol).

I threw up some pics here:

www.vistech.net/users/screamer/evo

These are just pathetic garage pics and I swear I'll get some proper ones up soon. To get this car I traded in a Hyundai Tiburon, and say what you will about Hyundai's, I loved that car. No matter, I'm already in love with the power and performance the MR has given me.

If I have only one complaint...it goes to my state. Damn them for drilling that front license plate into my baby lol

EDIT:
Pay no attention to 6.jpg in those images...I'm uh, I'm not that easily influenced *turns away and whistles*

Good color choice.

That's a lot of rust on your turbo manifold there. Get a lot of rain in your area?

So I was hoping to look into a new exhaust to get things sounding a little meaner...anyone have any thoughts on this?

Why would you knowingly buy a car that has been beaten to death for 44 of its baby miles???

<-----would never pay for a test-driven car

I was just kidding about being beaten to death...shoot, the guy from the dealership wouldn't even let it rev over 4 grand.

Now, a car with 300-400 miles on it, then I might worry.

I think 44 miles is a lot considering that most of them come with 4-5 miles....so it was test driven for 40 miles. And trust me the dealer guys dont stop u from redlining it....so I think those 40 miles were probably hard miles.

always consider the guy lives in CT, if he lives in Cali we'd have to jump on his case. It could be the fact they don't get many buyers so ya know moving the car back and forth and admiring it til they have a buyer hehe. Great color btw! Still waiting for my crack at an MR hehe.

Mine certainly did, as I said he didn't want me shifting over four grand.

Regardless, the car's in great shape, so stop trying to take my excitement down a notch!
