1988 Ford Mustang LX 5.0
1995 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo I6 2WD
1997 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited I6 2WD
1996 Nissan 240SX SE
2003 Nissan 350Z Performance
2007 Ford Mustang GT
2008 Nissan 350Z Enthusiast
2008 Subaru Impreza WRX STi
2008 Nissan 350Z Nismo (second car)
2012 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X GSR

The Evo is my favorite out of them all. Always loved them since the first one back in '92. Took me forever to be able to afford one and I can't think of any other car I'd replace it with other then a high end Porsche 911 model of some sort but even if I go for the Aircooled variety.

Potential future candidates for a new car for me is really only the 2015 Mustang GT, 20XX Nissan Silvia whenver they decide, or the Evo XI (fingers crossed on that). A good alternative for an Evo Like car would be the GTI R32 Mk.7. Apparently they fixed all the flaws of the Mk4s thru 6.

I'd like to have an older Evo II-IV variety for Rally-X, a 911 (type 964) for the Porsche fix but with the import bans lifting on the late 80s early 90s hardware classics like Ford RS Cosworth models, or R32 GT-Rs, and most of all Lancias are becoming a reality.

Well to try and compress the story:


I purchased it new and was in my early 20's at the time so of course I really liked the car. The first year I had it I had no problems whatsoever. Shortly after moving to NC from FL is when it started acting up. It had a mysterious boost problem. No matter what they replaced, the car would never build boost past 9psi, and it was a laggy build at that. The only way I could get it to boost normal was when I put an aftermarket AGP wastegate on it, but then I got the PTB which drove me crazy.


Everything related to the turbo system was swapped out: turbo, manifold, wastegate, they even swapped out the ECU and it never solved the boost problem. It was in and out of the shop for the span of a year before I finally got a lawyer and got it out of my life. This all started around 13k miles. I've contemplated getting another as a daily driver or something as they are pretty cheap to be had, but the way Dodge treated me when this all started happening has pretty much permenantly turned me off from buying a Dodge product.

That Cobra was bad ***. It made so much power with almost nothing done to it. And I went through a phase of just owning things. Some of the Evos I cared about, some of them I didn't. They were just in my garage because I saw a good deal. I've since grown out of that and plan on keeping this WW9 MR forever.
