i was at taco bell one day with another member from this site that actually has an evo. These two cracked out girls that couldnt have been more than 15 come over and are looking at my car. One of the girls said "hey is this an evo?" (pointing at my car).

I just started laughing and was like no, but that is, pointing at the other car. Immediately they flock around it and ask if they can drive it. Chinto just laughed and was like yeah, when you get $30,000.

Seriously, most people know knothing, the evo was looking them in the face and they still went to the wrong car.

I was moving into my new house yesterday, and one of the moving guys thought I had an evo. Funny thing was, he has a Busaru. So you would think he at least new something about cars. Plus, i don't have my body kit on right now either, cause of winter coming. Too many high snow drifts and pot holes and dirt roads in rural western pa.

I agree that some ppl on here are trying thier best to make thier lancers look like evos, but not every1 does. I know I aint tryin'a make my lancer look like an evo.. i'm just makin my lancer look as best as it can. If I wanted an evo, I'd spend 30K and get one. And this thread is not called, how many of us want our cars to look like evos - its other ppl mistaking us as evos. So point being - calm down and don't blow your head up too big.

yeah well i have a white evo rs, damn people are always ****in mistaking me for some ****ty lancer, because of the fact that even riced up cars try to race me, dude if you guys dont have an evo and put the evo wing on, good ****in luck going through your day without your *** raped by some kind of fast car. damn its a good thing that i have a sleeper car, if you want to consider the evo rs a sleeper, but the amount of horsepower under the hood, really pisses people off. hahahahha **** everybody who tries to race me on the street specially vettes, cobras, and other punk*****es

Happens to me from time to time, which is weird because I don't have any show mods that might lead to that mistake (no big wing, no large rims, etc.)

i agree, and i've noticed that most of the guys that own evo's are ****ty. i've only talked to a few guys that have evo's that are actually cool and don't look down on me cuz i only have a 'regular' lancer. i just think it sucks...

MAN, thought we were a general Lancer club. Who ever thought we would get bashed by our own. Thats ****ty, screw that, all we ever do is compliment Evo's and here we have a "few" peeps that call some of us less fortunate people ****ty for having ****ty lancers. Huh, whole new light on things now. how sad
