What color VIII does your friend moving back from Texas have?

And for Evos in Erie there are suprisingly quite a few, and quite a few ricers... and for blue evos...never seen one. ha
Thanks! Yeah, that was mine parked there. I've recently changed jobs, so it's not going to be there anymore.

It's black, can't remember the fancy name for it.

Haters and Car thieves man, watch out. Haters will key it, open doors into it in the TIGHT parking spaces. Thieves know mommy and daddy by their preciousness new rides before they are off to school so they try to rip it off.

After reading this, I don't think I want to get an EVO anymore. However, I'll probably get it for the weekends and other stuff. It's going to garaged a lot. T_T

Spending 50-60 a week beer still wouldnt be equal to my gas bill. I spend average about 10 bucks a day on gas, and dont even really drive anywhere. Six speed in traffic eats gas.

Get the evo and have fun with it. Thats what its for FUN. I vote anyone who can afford one get one in college or not. Insurance is there for a reason in case some one decides to key it.

Damn reading this thread puts lotsss of doubts in my mind. I'm off to college by next fall and hoping to get an evo. Don't know if UT Austin is a good place to take a precious car like that.

suggestions?

Don't get an Evo. My car still got messed with during the one SUMMER I actually lived in on-campus housing while owning my Evo. Get something a little less flashy, as jerks will be less likely to mess with it.

I have an Evo at college and I am a sophomore. Prior to this, I drove an RX-8 and had no problems. I go to Wake Forest and we have excellent security, however. Also, alot of other kids have nice cars, so vandalism isn't a problem. I would go for it.

I see Austin probably has decent security too so that might have just swayed me.
