just saying hi and introducing myself....I'm a mechanic (just graduated) i have been into Evos for awhile now....im looking to buy one...im nuts about the 2006 models. They just look badass with that bumper.

just poppin in here to say hi real quick....impressed with the professional conduct with the forum already.

 

Welcome to EvoM. I wrench on cars all the time too, usually its on muscle cars but I like working on Evos as well. I love the '06 body style as well. In fact its my favorite one out of all of them. I am starting to warm up to the '08's but I still like the '06 the best. Good luck on finding one.

 

thanks.....the only thing im not looking forward to is the price of one..but oh well it will be worth it

 

hahaha same here about warming up to the 08s, but still liking the 06s the best. lol. im thinkin about trading in my ix for an 09 if they look the same(09 should have all the problems worked out from the 08)

 

yeah i like the front of th 08s but the back just seems like there is to much bumper......maybe its because the taillights are smaller but the backs seem wierd to me....and are the widths the same?? i think the 08s seem skinnier

 

Where form Wi are you?

 

where in WI are you from? im in madison...sorta hard to find evo IX's for a good deal so good luck!!!

 

im about 10 minutes from Appleton. and yeah its definitly hard to find a IX for a good deal....let alone an evo in general...i should head down to madison sometime...i always see decent cars on the little side dealerships in the main drag in...but i dont know how reputable those are...

 

Welcome to the site.. where did you graduate from?

 

no where big like UTI or anything... just a Technical school thats pretty well known in WI and we got around 5 brand new cars every year that dealerships donate

 

Oh ok, was just curious cause Im in, of all places, UTI lol.. cool though, its a great business, great job security too

 

oh i know....the world will always need mechanics....even tho automotive designers tend to make things difficult for us at times

 

Ahh, are you on any local Wi boards? Widsm or BCM?

 

nope ill have to check those out...they pretty decent??

 

hey, theres a milwaukee thread here mostly milwaukee peoples chat, but some from around WI do also.
