it took me 2 years to buy the evo. I work fast food at booger king. Anyone that ordered a drink I would not put it into the system but charge the customer for it and pocket the money. $1.20+ per each customer adds up when you go through around 100 per day easy.

Early last year, got tired of making payments. Paid it off.
Constantly saving for more mods.
Damn thing is like a black hole for $$$$$$$$$$.

Yeah i am trying to stay away from the evo mod bug because I want to finish my drag car before Fall this year.

Evos are awsome period very fun car to drive. My rx7 (I am a rotor head for life )was not too fun to drive on the streets as a daily and I couldnt hook on the streets even if I blip the throttle...lol

Evo was not an option when I was 20...

Graduated college, worked for a couple years, sold the 240s and paid cash in full for the Evo. Best car i've owned thus far.
