New evo owner!

Wasnt sure where to post this but ill do it here....................................
Well today decided to go screw around for the hell of it at another local dealer after getting screwed around with at another.....after talking with the salesman for a few minutes(really down to earth guy) he grabbed the keys and let me take it for a spin...........oh hot damn I was sold the minute that turbo kicked in and I gave the wheel a slight twitch to the left and it jumped lanes....... the steering is actually so damn sensitive you have to get used to it
well after screwing around at the dealer for an hour I got down to the price-$31000 for the evo,$15000 for my SRT4
DEAL!
heres some pics in her new home,I actually only have driven the evo on the test drive because I didnt have insurance on the neon for the winter but I will put it back on for december so I can rock the evo for the month then put her away till spring.....dealer plates ftw!

Ha your comment about the steering is so true. I sneezed one time when I had my 05, and damn near threw it off the free way. that is no **** either.

Break in the motor for at least 850 miles and the tranny for at least 1,000 miles. That might be conservative but I'm at 36k heavily modded miles on my '05 without any unusual oil consumption or oil leaks. That's how I broke it in.

hah dont worry,shes being treated like a baby for the first 1000 miles......I am not about to screw up the piston rings and all the gaskets etc just to beat on the car....I am sure the 70 miles it had on it from the dealer were pretty fun
and thanks for the comments guys
