While we're glad to hear that you've "matured" (always a good thing to say about yourself), not getting a ticket since October (roughly six months) is cool but still not a big deal, and it won't get you off the hook just yet.

Like we said before, we're not trying to attack you or shrug you off because of your age, but it's not as simple of a situation as you think.
Well thanks for the warm welcome and I know its gonna be a lot of money but ive wanted one for so long so I'm gonna do what I want to do regardless.

Thanks anyways for all the info =]

What do you mean you're "going to be in law enforcement"? By that, do you mean that you have pipe dreams of one day having a badge, or you've already applied and are well into the background investigation process? I have a feeling it's the former of the two. Again, this is another thing that you're underestimating, it's a long and VERY difficult process (speaking from personal experience), especially nowadays. Plus there is actually decent money to be made in law enforcement, unless you were expecting to be a millionaire and own six-figure cars before you're 30.

Well I'm starting out and learning about law enforcment since I'm 17 I can't really do much, I'm in the police explorer program so I'm learning what they teach us and train with the police and I will be going to the academy next year. I'm not trying to be a "mllionaire" and own 6 figure cars. Is there a reason your bashing me cause I'm 17 and getting an evo and becoming a police officer?

EDIT: btw you know from personal expirience which is good and I know from family/friends since almost every man in my family is military or a police officer. And I have a few friends that just went to the academy and 1 that just came out and is a cop now.

^ I wasn't bashing you, don't be so sensitive. Just saying that it's a lot easier to say you're going to be in law enforcement than to actually do it, plus it sounded like you were talking like you're already in.

Hey at least the guy is level headed (somewhat) and isn't going to bury himself in debt with a 35k X. Buying a nice used evo for 19k is a far better idea, albeit if he saved his money, invested in a house/career, in 5 years he could own a nice used one with plenty of dough to spare in mods. . . .

Alright well I'm sorry I was speaking like I was already in it, I meant I'm going to be a Police officer.
Thanks for the welcome guys and I might go to proccolinos(sp?) soon.

I'm just here to learn and search for an evo8 to purchase in October so I'm in no hurry.

I'm very satisfied. More pictures to come, I'm gonna clean her up real good, I'll take pics with my Rebel and post them up on Wednesday.

I'm bringing it to Jestr at Big Valley in Orlando to get her Dyno'd so I know how much power she is making.

Here is an Interior shot
