I was looking for one of these for awhile. Problem is that the 04-05 Vs go through diffs like a kid goes through candy. The 06-07 got a reinforced diff casing but far fewer of them were made so they're harder to find in decent shape.
If you do pick up an 04-05, set some money aside to eventually replace the rear differential because it's more likely than not that the casing will crack.

GTR definitely...2009+ M3 or 2010 S4 possibly...
I've been fighting the internal battle of getting a "nicer" sports car for a long time. The GTR is the only car I'd replace the Evo with without any hesitation...going to the M3 or the S4 would take A LOT of justification, which is why the Evo is still in my garage. My plan is to pay off the Evo and THEN go to a new car...but temptation is a Beyatch.

i just read all 3 of these pages, and damn near everyone's thoughts on cars to trade for was very unrealistic or obtainable to a regular working man....
there are not that many cars in today's market in or around my price range that appeal to me, and really not many can still top the evo 8 and 9. performance and fun factor wise.
But let me be like the rest of the evom crowd
Heres my list
corvette zr1
bmw m6
porcshe 911 turbo
audi r8
my affordable list
g37 convertible
is250 f sport package
bmw 335
mind you the evo can still **** on just about all 3 of my affordable list... sooo idk its a hard one dude..
