In that context it isn't something that needs fixing. I don't have a wife or girlfriend yellin at me to get off EvoM or stop playing video games etc etc. But yes, I agree, and I'm attempting to work on it as best as I can!

Your car is beautiful! Why would you sell it for a C5 Z06?

 

Thanks man! I've just always wanted a vette. I can take vette's with the evo, but I LOVE the looks of vette's!
It's just time for a change.

 

Makes perfect sense, that's why I went the way I did too. GL with the sell, times are hard, but the car looks real good.

 

^ Same and is your Integra and R6 good in the snow?

 

Actually the Teg isn't bad lol.

 

And Don't get me wrong I love Vettes but Its not going to be good in the snow in a place that gets snow in the winter.. and at least Jake got a AWD Porsche I personaly cant get over the fact of how good AWD is in the snow. I still do have a few other cars that are RWD and a bad in the snow but I just love the Evo for winter driving

 

oh ya I guess there not that bad if you have some snow tires. I'm just trying to make you keep the Evo is all

 

I'm not really sure if 21.5k is asking too much. So if it is, just let me know

 

**** I've been busy today trying to figure out why the car won't go into gear...I think it's the slave maybe needs bled or line got kinked/bent or cracked possibly? I'll figure it out when I get a friend over other then that the car has been all put back together with the new trans so while I'm waiting I'm gonna play ps3 dead space is good stuff

 

I'm sure the teg is great in the snow, even with all-seasons. I'm not sure how the 911 would be with all-seasons, the wide rear tires struggle in deep snow even with snow tires on... And yeah, the front tires correct for it, but that doesn't stop the back end from getting loose ALL the time.

Wes: You need a life, the area between your ears is becoming the game you are playing!

 

haha well at least you dont sit on your *** all day like me I may hopefully have a fun Job soon.

 

haha sounds like you have fun then
Hey does anyone use instant messenger? Ive been on all day for the last 4 days talking to random people and almost no friends

 

Just looked at the pics again subrwho, is it not lowered? I didn't see suspension mods listed at all, but it looks pretty low.

Anyway, whether 21.5 is a good price or not is hard to say. The market on the Evos fluctuates like crazy. I know I had mine listed for 22k and wound up trading it in for 18.5 (tax savings pushed that up to around 20k) mine had fewer mods but did have a 2.5k stereo system, it was a year ago, and it had 52k miles on it. I think Riley's Evo for 27k is over priced, but knowing him he's probably already sold it for that much. Your's is definitely in the right range, maybe a little to the high side, but not so high that it wouldn't be worth it.

If the claims adjuster ends up totalling the Porsche (which I doubt and don't want to happen, but they said it was so old they might just have to total it) you may be hearing from me. Let's hope that isn't the case though!
