Funny/stupid things people say/ask about your Evo!
Last week, I had just finished washing and detailing my car and I pulled up to a stop sign and there were two kids on there little bikes crossing so I waited for them to finish crossing and they couldn't have been more then 5-6 years old and one of them is staring at my car and then he goes:
Kid: Is that a real evo!!?
me:0_o Yeah (in utter shock that this kid knew it was an evo)
Kid: Should have bought the Evo 9
I then burst out laughing and say Right on buddy! Gave him the thumbs up and drove on.
Looks like I can't lose all faith in the younger generations.

Hahaha. "Is that thing twin turbo"- Yesterday
" Is that a shopping cart wing?"- Yes ******* the rule is if your car can hit 160mph stock you can have one too
"Your hood is dirty"- Girl referring to my carbon hood.

"how fast does it go?"
I mean is that honestly a question anyone can answer...? Does anyone know the exact top speed of their car? That's generally a high school ricer thing if you know the top speed of what your accord can do

Went and got the Evo echecked last week. A guy was waiting in the booth and the convo went something like this.
Guy: is that an Evo?
Me: yeah 06
Guy: how much power do you have and when does it hit?
Me: stock around 280, comes on around 3k
Guy: that's cool I have to wait till 6k before mine gets power.
Me: what do you drive?
Guy: I have that blue celica, it's got a high lift cam so I have to wait for it. It will beat most sti's but I wont line up with an Evo they're too fast.
Me: O_o erm oh that's cool. I think your car is ready.
I had to turn away from him to keep from laughing lol. Best story to date with the car.

I would have shook that kids hand.
This wasn't actually in my Evo but it's still very funny.
I was sitting with my wife in her Murano today and we decided to take it through the automatic car wash at the Mobil station. We get to the part where it's squirting the car with yellow, green, and blue stuff for the wax/clear coat protectant and my wife says "Oh they did Easter colors!!!" with a happy squeal and a big smile on her face! Can you say double facepalm!!!

Before I bought my Evo I went to a Mitsubish dealership with my buddy (who has an Evo IX) to pickup some parts. Salesman walks out, gives a compliment on my buddies evo, and asks us if we are there for parts or to look at cars. My buddy says he is there for parts but lets him know that I am in the market for an evo. I let him know im looking for an Evo IX and he says he has one sitting in the showroom right now. He takes us into the showroom and brings us to an Evo X... I didnt want to be rude and call him out so just took his business card, went to pick up the parts and left.

She said "nice car, it looks like mine" when i goto get in my car I see this girl get into a Chevy Cobalt so I smiled at her as i glanced at her and she says "see just like mine..." I just got in my car and drove away.

I get offended when someone calls it a Lancer.
Some cop tool with a Z at a car show kept asking "so its a Lancer"
replied "yes and no, its the Evolution version, 9th generation, Mitsubishi Racing model"
cop "but its a Lancer"
replied "Yes, but you can't make a Basic Lancer into this"
cop "its still a Lancer"
Turned my back on the cop and said choice words to our group as we walked off.
