Adios
After 15 years of Evos, the end had finally come. I miss the car already. I learned a TON. On to newer things. Keep hope alive :lol:

Where faith dwells hope is never lost :D

We've had our differences on this forum, you've contributed a lot to the community with your knowledge on these cars and you are a genuine enthusiast. Good luck on your future path. Sad to see it driving away like that after so many years together. What a beautiful looking car.

You're not the only one that feels that way. I had my car for 17 years also and I went from changing oil in my driveway laying on my back, to doing custom paint and tig welding fabrication in my shop. It feels nice even know we sold our cars- the skills will stay forever as long as we keep them sharp!

Mk5 Supra gang converted another. ;)

Bummer! Good Luck!
|
Sad to see, hopefully it went to a good home. Good luck with your new projects. {thumbup}

farewell, from another old member!

I got an almost good enough offer to sell mine a few months ago. Still passed on it. I like owning an icon.

Thanks for all your contributions kaj, enjoy your new journey! Cars will always keep evolving, im just glad we have so many to choose from. I do not look forward to the day I no longer have my evo.

I hope you will have a pleasant ownership experience with the new car!
I can understand the feeling myself. My stock-ish Evo X costed me 10 grands in repairs in 2022 (the most costly were blown shocks and a leaking stock CMC). If she continues to be a money pit for a couple more years, I'm mentally prepared to trade her in for a more humble car (like an S550 Ecoboost or RZ34 6MT) for daily driving. If she becomes reliable again, then I want to keep her as long as I can. The folks in regional Evo clubs are great, and the enjoyment I have going to places in an Evo is more memorable than in the AMGs and Porsches that Vancouverites like to brag about, at a fraction of the cost to own. |
