When my Evo died(wrecked) I replaced it with a Honda Fit. It's a nice placeholder until I decide what performance car I want next.

Hey its a great DD that's what counts. I got rid of my evo because it was
getting too expensive to maintain and i didn't think it was a reliable car but nothing beats a AWD

That is just awesome! Spoon Sport Honda Fit passing AMS Time Attack Evo.

Either the driver the AMS time attack car suck, or they should just concentrate on drag racing.

I like it... but don't think I would trade my Evo for one. I'll keep my accord for my DD.

From what my insurance company has said (USAA) they go off the weight to hp ratio. So I'm thinking, if you have multipule cars, it shouldn't be that much.

I pay $115 for my EVO (weekend only)
I pay $75 for my 2002 Civic Si (Weekend only)
and Pay $24 for my 1990 Civic Si (DD)

=$214


Before I got the EF, I was paying $200 for the EVO and $163 for the civic si. As you can see I'm paying less for insurance for the thrid car.

=$363
