Hey everyone. I havent been on here anymore, I miss driving the evo. I miss the old evo forums and wandering around here I came across this old thread.
Here is an update. I got rid of the merc after a year and half. It was a good daily driver, but honestly I learned I dont really like having so much techy stuff going on as Im driving. Also it had alot of issues, that although it was all under warranty, it was an inconvience. here is the run down.
~5000 miles ,piston rings replaced due to engine noise.
~12000 miles, panoramic roof took a crap, literally probably like the 4th time using it,lol. repair was replacement of complete new roof assembly
~ a few oil leaks and interior rattles.
I sold it and bought a 2016 Focus St. It has been a great autox car actually, and being my first fwd car I have to relearn how to drive a wrong wheel drive car.
Anyhow, maybe I will be back in an evo soon.
