In order to not pay sales tax, I have to sign an affidavit that says I promise not to drive my car in Florida for 6 months... so I'll take it home this summer.

CeeKay got an Evo 8.5...

Its a 2003 Evo 8... but... it has the full Evo 9 MR conversion. 6-Speed, Mivec, turbo.... the only thing Evo 8 about it is the interior.

She loves it! LoL

Nice GTR, EvoG8r!

I've been out of the Mitsubishi community for a couple years now since I sold the Lancer for my camera. Well, I finally decided I wanted a car of my own again. Two weeks ago I bought a '95 Miata with 127k miles. It makes my wife's VW Rabbit look like a minivan by comparison.

Plans are to get it healthy with fresh belts and fluids and then go autocrossing with it. The bummer is that I'm a bit stuck at the moment. In flushing the radiator, what originally appeared to be some rusty old coolant now appears to be oil in the coolant so it may need a head gasket. On top of that, I stripped the radiator drain plug and haven't been able to find a direct replacement, since it's a non-factory radiator. I've got something that fits now, but I'll have to dremel it to really make it seal. Hopefully I'll have it back on the ground this week.

Are any of you going to the opening of VSR Motorsports (formerly S&R) this weekend? They're having a big party on Saturday and a poker run on Sunday.
