New to Board- Galant VR4-AKA Evo 0

Just wanted to introduce myself-
Been in the game for a while- Never really got into the Evo much but am looking to do some research on the car and see if I can maybe get my hands on one.

I have a Galant VR4 870/2000
68k original miles

Thank you for having me- see my pics in the album section

Thank you sir! I really hate putting any miles on this thing! I am seriously thinking of selling it to someone who will store this somewhere and keep it mint- I feel guilty about driving it if that makes any sense
