Aawwwwwwwww Yeeeeeeaah! Guess who just put their deposit down on their brand new EB '05 GSR
Finally bought it from a dealer up in Chicago. Got it for what I was asking. No haggling either. Screw these Columbus dealers. Delivery in about 2 weeks - coming straight from port in CA.
Can't wait to start rockin it in the Evo. We'll have to meet up when I get it. Thanks for all the help, fellahs.

seems like every one forgot about the two dealerships in Dayton, but they are nothing special. I was lucky and bought mine from Jeff Schmitt but the service sucks. just my 2 cents, and congrats with your purchase.

you might be the one and only in columbus too.
Nadzerin, Cool let us know when you want to get together. I met another 03 owner and we can have a pretty nice get together.
Ian, this is Sashi I met you at J spec a couple of weeks ago. Pm me your number, so that we can let you know when we get together. I also may have someone you may be interested in talking to if you want to mod that evo.

Meets
[QUOTE=SilverEvo8owner]the hooters parking lot isn't as ghetto IS THIS A MEET OF EVO'S OR ALL TYPES OF CARS ?
Quaker Steak and Lube is a good place to have a meet.. We should try a Columbus meet of just Evo's. Just my 2 cents.

Yes this is a meet for all types of cars like sprayed vipers, sprayed Z06's, Sprayed camaroes, supras, Cobra's ect... There are quite a few cool cars
Ricer turnout has been low to none and we usaully tell them to leave.
I think that we could also have an EVO only meet too. I only posted about the hooters meet because i would like to see more evo's come out. I've yet to be beaten by another evo within the last year or so

I just want to go and look at other ppl's cars...that's all I want to do and that's what I love doing...I don't want to put up with some sprayed Z06 guy's BS...I know he can beat me, that's why I don't even want to try to race him...so he shouldn't even start...
Any one of those guys can beat a stock Evo in a straight line...sometimes ppl don't know there's other types of racing...like on a road course.
but regardless I'll come this saturday, if as you say the weather's nice and hopefully there will be a good turnout. Look for another Apex Silver

But I agree with the evo only meet. We need to get something like that organized.

most of the guys are pretty nice and are not cocky. They are cool once you get to know them and you can get on the columbus racing forums.
There is a shop that specializes in Evo and STi's
www.Meadengineering.com
Ill tlak to him and see if we could all make it out to his place and you could get a chance to see the VividRacing Evo...( yes it's in ohio) It is being worked out right now in at Mead Engineering
There is another forum that is based in dayton the cruises a lot. There are i think 7 evos on this site. Invite only
Pm me if you guys want more details
