Only funny story I had with my evo was one time when I was crusin around and had my window cracked a little there were these 2 hot girls next to me all smiling and waving so I went to put my window all the way down to talk to them.... Yeahhh I ended up hitting the rear window switch putting the rear window down and then fumbled with the switches for a few seconds and almost went off the road cause I was looking at the switches to get the window down. OOPS! LOL

I learnt to drive a manual in my Evo 6.5.

I stalled it numerous times in the most awkward places.

Though all good now

I was at a car meet with some friends and i was backing into a parking spot next to my buddy's rx8, a group of people in front of me watching me start commenting " ohh no" and i nearly side swipe my friends car. I just told them i was trying to box him in leaving him no room to open the door since he did that to me earlier. They believed me. Evo steering diameter is very unforgiving!

evo 8 mr was first manual. couldn't even get it out of the dealer lot in reverse. made it through the toll booths in nyc, but in my hometown, managed to stall it a few times on the main road, backing up traffic :P

one lady jeered at me and told me to "Just park it there". i still remember her face.

now we do winter rallies in upstate NY. guess we all gotta start somewhere
