i got it used with bald tires

so i am pretty sure the previous owner did just that, because i really never race or launch the car.

 

Wow, that sucks! That's why I bought mine new. Sounds like it would have been cheaper if you'd done so.

I know you don't like fwd but with a low 20's budget I know I'd look at a used Cooper S.

 

it sucks two cuz i was going to buy a X but when it came out every one was so effy about the motor

 

Well we were all wrong. I used to bus ton them too, till the market started going up and the companies like ETS proved those motors. 700+ on stock blocks, thats INSANE. Supra status, in a 4cyl, ALMOST.

Anyways, Why not fi the kinks a bit and sell it or trade it for a well kept evo, even if its older. Someone else will appreicate the newness and fun-ness to rebuild a newer evo, as opposed to you who will enjoy the reliability and fun factor of a well kept near stock one.

 

get a civic

 

Great idea, and while im at it i'll go ahead and castrate myself.

 

Average Joes aren't mechanics but I agree with the sentiment (if you have the money). Buying another car and inheriting another set of unknown problems isn't a great solution. If you rebuild the car with quality parts then you know it'll last as long as you own it...and you could even beat on it a bit and not worry about it.

 

I'm looking through the suggestion...and i'm pretty sure he said no FWD. lol
And I love my evo, but I'm a Nissan fan all the way. 350Z yo!
Or spend a little more and stfu about that 2000+ thing and get an NSX.

 

yes sir 350z i love mine

 

LMFAO

On topic now, pretty much stick with it and get it checked out by a friend or longtime mechanic who knows you and who knows what there doing.
Then take it from there.
Good Luck

a 02-05 wrx/sti would be sweet.

 

How are the Z's i can get a 08 with less then 20k for 19grand

can any past or current owners tell me the Up sides and down sides of the car?

 

after reading your post I'm almost guaranteed that my EVO is also a lemon
no wonder i spent almost 20k by this weekend.
**** what should I do?


I traded my Z for the EVO, good car never modded, dont know how they hold up modded. by the way what did you do with $400k?

 

S2000. I have one, and it is quite resonable, as has very high potential. You can get an older one for ~$12-15k in decent condition. Mods are about the same price as your Evo's, but there is a HUGE selection of stuff. And you don't even have to mod to have fun in it. And best of all, it's so easy to work on!--everything is laid out cleanly, and there's enough space in the engine bay. It's a different kind of car though that rewards a different kind of driver. I think it is arguably the harder car to drive well, but when you do, it feels great.
