I don't have time for my sled any more and all it does is get me in trouble.

Considering a move in another direction....

Trouble? More than our infamous giving Jesse a ride debacle?

Do I predict a big B-O-A-T purchase?!?

How much?

And that's what I started to notice, people get more and more tired of their evos. I see more punks (like SRT-4 drivers) wanting to get an evo. It's a damn civic now, or will become soon. I caught myself thinking about another car and just having evo for the track (or get rid of it completely, kinda pricy for just a track car)

Never thought I would want to sell my evo

This is sad news, gentlemen! :-(

Alex, I would like to talk to you in depth about open track days (probably Nelson, for starters). Expect a PM soon...

i would love to invest more time and money into my evo but with a rusting trunk that i don't know if is gonna cover it or the wing which the clear is starting to bubble.

i have alot better ways of spending 800 bucks.

i love my evo though and i don't think it is becoming the next civic. you don't have to swap it to get a beast.....

I would have never even thought of getting rid of mine... if it wasn't for the fact that i can't move it to Canada.

I drove around all day driving other cars and then getting back in mine to go to the next dealership.. and it makes buying something else hard. The only benefit to all the other cars... is the ride comfort... and the traction control.. but i don't know if that is a good or bad thing.

Where the rear crash beam is connected to the trunk.. If you pull the bumper you see it.. take it in spray it and you are good to go...

Its what everyone that gets a JDM rear bumper does when they get them installed..

(i'm guessing thats what he's talking about)
