Finally! I'm an Evo owner! (pics)

Hey guys!

After years and years I have finally made the jump! I have been a Honda guy forever but I have always loved the Evo. It was the Options videos (on VHS) from Japan that introduced the Evo to me. Once I heard they were coming to the states I knew one would be mine (eventually)!

I drove to Clarksburg, VW from Knoxville, TN this past weekend to pick her up from another EvoM member, super nice guy. It was about 800 miles around trip and totally worth it. Yes it was modded and I know many think that is bad news, but I went to the ends of the earth to check this car out. Talked to the tuner, which had nothing but good things to say and the owner was very truthful and answered all my questions quickly. Reasons I went with this one are: it already had everything I wanted done to it, making right at the power I wanted and it's an SSL.

This is my first AWD/turbo car and I'm in love! I can say right now I will NEVER not have a turbo in my garage from now on!!







Only earlier plans are a Nav and some wheels.

Thanks!
