(if you browse these forums)

What's up mr. "I'm such a badass rolling up fast behind you and weaving through traffic then cutting across 4 lanes to exit last second"?


I looked over when you came up next to me (White Evo 1) on 405 passing totem lake and man you were intense... I almost thought I wasn't cool enough for a minute.... and boy did you really show that STi on the left who was boss! (fail)


Anywho, to whomever owns the Graphite Grey IX MR w/ the "northwest Evolution" decal on your rear passenger windows:



Why do so many of these kids have to own evo's?

Whats the deal with that? Irresponsible driving is no acclaim and no reason to hit someone or cause an accident nontheless

meh, happens all the time. yesterday when we were heading up snoqualmie for a boarding session in the evo, we had a jeep with unmatched wheels (he had 3 different wheels on the car) doing ricer fly bys. on the way home, we had a black sti with a wrx wing doing the same thing. both times i was going 70-75 in the right lane while they were going 65-70 in the middle lane. i guess passing them was an automatic invitation to race. no, i didn't try to keep up after they did the fly bys.

moral of the story: people want to show off when they think their cars are faster. in reality, ricers will always be ricers.

I remember a few weeks ago these kids in one of those old double decker vans pulled up to me while I was cruising down Silverdale around 25mph and started like jumping forward...he looks over and says I bet I can take you up to 30mph He was joking but I got a chuckle out of it.

evos are like magnets for a**hats. I do not drive one but my brother does. Every time I take it out someone wants to race me, even if they have an 5000 pound sport utility. Its like they are jealous or their girlfriend is in the car and they think they have something to prove. You guys are cool for not egging them on and making matters worse. People like that are going to get someone killed.

Ive picked up a couple reasonable older guys, one in the new gt-3 which suprised me on i-5 and a gt500
But its still very annoying with all the hondas and such. When i owned my Integra i respected the EVO guys and gals... whats happened to todays community?

As the reslae value of Evo's continue to decline, the quality of drivers will as well. The prices are in teenage affordibility range now so what do you expect? Nobody under 21 should be allowed to drive a car that is this fast from the factory, but that's just my humble opinion

I strongly disagree. We've all seen many more people that drive their POS $1000 car's as if they're out to kill someone.

I drive my evo AT the speed limit or 5 over. If someone gets on my *** I either let them pass if I have space or i slow down to the speed limit if I'm over it so they'll be on my *** and a cop will give them a ticket.

I'm 19 and the affordability part of the Evo's makes me angry too. I hate dumbasses that drive like retards EVERYWHERE THEY GO! and these people are typically the lower income people which is because they aren't so smart and they do dumb things and it all correlates together!

amount of BRAIN POWER = income
Lower brain power = stupid decisions

I'll admit I have a go with a car that may be worth trying sometimes. EVERYONE DOES, But the people that try to race everything that has a wing or exhaust **** me off, I don't care what their car is.

So pretty much I agree but am going to modify your statement.
I think banks shouldn't give loans to people under 21 for fast cars.

Mine's paid off by me

(sorry if none of this makes sense, I don't take my ADHD medicine on Sundays lol)

haha nice
I agree im 20 and the Evo has been my dream car since brought over in 02
ive worked hard to get the Evo and now that i have it i dont plan on loosing it, and i do my fair share of stupid driving agreed everyone does... but i know my limits and found them out early at the track. Usually the only racing i do is on the track

honestly, I've reached a point where the car is too fast to even bother driving fast on the road. It just FEELS stupid.

I do admit though, I LOVEEEEEE making girls scream with a nice 2nd gear pull! It's like my own personal peak boost alert

27 PSI..... anddd...... AHHHHHHHH!!!!!!
