Subaru guy switching to Evo :)

Hi everyone. I've been dreaming of an evo since 17, i researched and researched, spent hours reading about them, finally 2 years later my dream came true. Got myself exactly the type of evo that i wanted the most. Red 2006 IX MR. I got it on auction, still gotta fix it up, pretty good deal tho. its fully stock as well. I've been a subaru guy for the past year and a half, still drive my WRX and i love it too, but to be honest, the only reason i bought a wrx back in 08 is cuz i was only 18 and couldnt afford an sti or evo, but my wrx is almost as fast as evo, so it worked out well anyways i'm really happy to finally own an evo, gonna sell my subaru and make the best out of my MR

Here's a couple pix from the auction page

oh wow, both 19 year olds with wrx's and IX MRs, thats pretty sweet. Yeah its for sure an MR, the shift knob is 6 speed, has the MR logo on the console under the shift knob, and on the trunk.
Just too bad i gotta wait another month to drive it. Took wrx to the track today. It rained. Turned around and went home lol. really sucked. wanted to see how much faster is a stock evo. my rex should be about 13.5 now

None of mine or anyone else's business, but could I ask what you paid for the car? If not, it's cool. Welcome to the most addicting vehicle you will probably ever own.
