When you can't help yourself from zoning out at school and work, because you're to busy thinking and pricing out your upcoming mods.

When you think anyone who owns a muscle car is an idiot.

You know you drive an Evo when....


Your broke as hell for the expensive parts....
You get a thumbs up from strangers in the freeway
Stranger in the freeway starts filming you on their camera phones..
You miss your civic for the good mileage and not for the Evo's crappy mileage...
you don't get any look from gtr owners
And lastly
Your wife says "your not a teenager anymore!!!"

All true story

This is pretty common:

You know you drive an Evo when you maxed out your credit card on a high HP build and then parted it out a week later.

you know you drive an Evo when

- you blow a intercooler coupler (scares the crap out of you because you assume the worst)
-when you see random threads on EvoM pop up with words like (da,y,dat,and dum)
-when your dad drives your car and no longer thinks he has the fastest car in the house (67 ford fairlane/87 ford mustang gt mild build/67 ford mustang)
-when you are told how unfair Evos are in practically every type of race.
-when you let people drive your car an they stall it once an you say get out lol

Third one is so true! That's how I got rear ended, car behind me couldn't stop on time.

You know you drive an evo when you pay as much in gas over 5 years as the car itself.

Hahaha, 1500miles on my X and driving to San Diego on the 8fwy the Border Patrol checkpoint officer said; "So did you do all the mods yourself?" me: "It's completely stock, no mods." Officer: "No, like the exhaust and and bodykit." me: "No, really. it came like this, the car is only two weeks old and has 1500 miles." Officer: "Have a nice day..."



You know you own an Evo when:
- You have researched what stations carry E85 and how often they say they ran out, BEFORE you've even modded the car!

hahaha, oh man this. I cringe letting anyone overweight in my recaros.

This thread is hilarious because it is so true.

when you kick one of your parents brand new cars out of the garage because yours is more likely to get stolen.

You know you drive an Evo when...

you think that spending $800+ on your braking system is a good investment when your OEM are perfectley fine.

When its a struggle to put in the Reverse gear..

When your looking at a house and a steep or Bumpy driveway entrance is a deal breaker..
(true story)
