Turco- It comes down to me not having time to dedicate myself to hobby-ing a car anymore. Yes, it's unfortunate as I love to work on the Evo from time to time. But that time has come and gone. There seems there is always something to be doen next to the Evo. And as Sam gets older, she will be involved in more things recreation wise. Leading me into an even more busy schedule. So, my goal is to find a car (in stock form) that has impressive numbers and is a blast to drive if/when I get the chance...but be very SAFE and be driven daily. And like I said, I am just entering the market and peeking around. There is not a 'for sale' or feeler thread for my car yet either. I understand your point about the non-modding of a NA car. I have seen what Greg has done to the Camaro. But I am not looking for a project car by any means what so ever.

i have no contentions with you selling the evo and moving on i just dont understand why you wouldn't mod an RS4 and would a 335xi. That personally does not make sense to me.

I said I would not want a 335 do to the fact that it was turbo'd and would push me to want to upgrade and tune. It would be a nice car, but defeat the purpose of my adgenda. I may have mistakenly worded my statement earlier. I won't be into a 335 because of its mechanical nature. I look at the RS4/S4 series in stock form, as more than suffice for my needs. I love you.

It's all about aftermarket support and ease of modding. 335xi has both, not so much for the RS4. It's all about $/hp. If you need to spend $1500 to make an additional 20hp vs $600 to make an additional 50, which would be more tempting. It is not that he couldn't mod either, just that some cars are more tempting to mod than others...(I feel like I keep saying the same thing...)

Vegas- I have no set plans as of yet. Me and my friend Laura might be getting a condo for her and I to board/ski @ Loon. But it is not definite. I still do not know if I will have Sam either. I wish I would know sooner so I can make plans to do something or just know that I will be home with a bottle of Moèt in one hand, and my junk in the other while I watch teh count down lol.
