Why do you want a stock evo? A nicely modded evo by someone local that Kevin can vouch for will save you a ton of money in the long run.

A "stock" evo likely wasn't and is now hastily thrown together for sale.

Just my 2 cents.

You can by my X as it sits right now for $25k.

Yeah I guess I see were your coming from. I never thought of taken it to Kevin or Tony at t1 to look at. Hmmm but still, financing an 03 is the issue. Has to be 04 or newer.

Sorry I want a VIII... No MRs

That's what I said, then I sold mine 6 months later when it got cold outside.

Yeah but I love bikes so I will ride when it's cold. **** I rode in the pooring rain. It's part of the game. Plus I want multiple ways of transportation. That and the bike is paid for. I'll be getting a gixxer 1000 next and handing the 600 to the girlfriend or possibly making it a track bike and getting her a 600.

But before all that an evo comes first. Hehe

Ya can't really stunt in the rain not freeway stuff anyway. Day 2 of owning a bike I rode from Allen to my house 25-30 minutes or so through pouring rain with a bald rear tire. That was fun.

Tommy's car's for sale: http://dallas.craigslist.org/dal/cto/1407958272.html

It's an MR, but I'm not sure why you don't want an MR (worried about the 6MT?). I like the MR interior.

yeah, if your shooting for 600+ be prepared to have a second car cause stuff breaks a lot. so don't sell the bike

5 speed is the much better choice if you drive it hard and make huge power. i have a couple broken 6 speeds at the shop from hard driving and high HP.

Yeah that's my goal. Oh I will be keeping the bike for that exact reason.

I have a bad habit of spending tons of money on cars. My old car I spent $8,000 on just the turbo kit. Custom synapse manifold, GT35 .82 a/r, custom IC piping, custom 3" exhaust, Bosch 1000cc injectors..

Here this is me on my other forum... The first tune was off the wastegate since I didn't have a boost controller yet.
