Thumbs up Yellow EVO sighting in San Jose

Saw a yellow EVO today at the Berryessa/Lundy stop light. You were on a lane going straight on Berryessa through Lundy. I was the passenger in a beige Isuzu Trooper making a left turn from Lundy to Berryessa towards 680. Is this anyone on here? That's the 3rd EVO (including me) that I know of in the San Jose area.

ink124,

I'm not the yellow Evo you saw, but I believe I may have seen your silver Evo on a couple of occasions. I live in the Berryessa-Brokaw area and have seen a silver Evo driving around in the early evenings, around Brokaw and Old Oakland. Might that be you? (I drive a silver S2000)

I, too, once saw a yellow Evo in the area, so perhaps there's another one in the neighborhood.

Hey Cyber, it may have been me (I live off Brokaw and Lundy) or a friend of mine (lives off Hostetter and Flickinger) who also drives a silver EVO.

Anyway, just this evening, I passed another Silver EVO with tinted windows going the opposite direction on Berryessa! And an hour later, going the other way on Berryessa, I saw the same yellow EVO that I mentioned a few days ago! He drove up next to me and we gave each other the "peace" sign and went our separate ways. Nice to finally see other cool people that I don't already know, driving the EVO! Now if only we can get together for a meet or something...

Hey guys i also drive a silver Evo, but i only went down to San Jose once, like a month ago.. i've seen a white evo in that area also.. I've been wanting to have some kind of a meet, (well sorta had one with another Evo at a wrx meet). Me and the other silvr Evo was thinking about going down to san jose (sometime btwn june 9-12) to get racing gas and maybe take a drive on 17 santa cruz high way. Be great if we could all meet up. Maybe around evening or nighttime if you all have work, any ideas pm me, i might start a thread here about the meet, thanks

Hey ink124, it definitely could've been either you or your friend then. I live pretty darn close to Flickinger Park, so I think I'm right around where your friend is. I haven't sighted all that many Evos myself (the silver one on Old Oakland was the first one I saw on the street), but since I don't personally own the car, I probably don't "tune in" to them as much.

I did stop by the Mitsubishi dealer this weekend just to take a look at the Evo, and you guys have a great car. I'm sure it's wishful thinking on my part, but hopefully they'll eventually allow test drives so I can check it out for myself.

Anyway, if you happen to see an Asian guy with shaved hair and glasses in a silver S2000 (I know, I know, lots of us look like that ) around the neighborhood, be sure to say what's up! See ya around...

Hey I'd be up to meet up with some of you folks. I don't drive an Evo, but a car enthusiast is a car enthusiast, right? I work during regular business hours, as I'm sure a lot of other folks do as well, so I think evening is a good idea. But if you guys decide to drive the 17 during daytime, that would be doable as well - I work off the 17 (just a few miles north of Santa Cruz), so slipping out of the office for a few minutes for a short run wouldn't hurt. Keep us posted...

You know, i've yet to see one in the street in San Jose. My friend has seen a red one a few times around the Great Mall area. But as for myself, I drive from Tully area to De Anza everyday and have yet to see one.

Once in a while on friday and saturday nights, my friend and I hang out over there at In-and-Out at Capitol Expressway and Tully. Look for us there... We each have silver EVOs.
