Evo for me or not?

Yep I finally foung a good deal but I feel a little nervous about buying one. I mean I currently drive an 05 cherokee but I love the evo's and am wondering if its all gonna be worth it? I am no longer in the tuning seen but for some reason I am just drawn to these cars. Its a red 06 MR which will be good for a daily driver n it has 18/k on it. Are these cars worth it or not?

Well, you're on an Evo forum so the answer is going to be yes

I bought a 06 ix mr last june and its my dd. I absolutely love getting into my car everyday, the only downside is the money, so if you budgeted for the payment and insurance than your answer is yes. The money is the only possible thing you can regret about an Evo

I dont know i found one though. I will def make sure its a mr. I can afford the payments n the insurance I am just worried about the reliability and how well its made. I hear alot about interior rattling and bad trannies. I mean your guys prob paid alot of cash for these cars! Is it worth it or should I buy a nice reliable Accord or something. Are any of you bored? I am 27 and am not going to be looking to drag race down the strip every Thurs. night.
