What do you use or plan to use your Evo for?

[JanSolo]

Just want to figure out what people are gonna do or are doing with their Evos. I see a lot of mods going on people's cars so I just wanted to figure out what exactly the purpose was.

[thomas]

you left a category out, jan...

*picking up b!tches* haha. LOL. :D juss playin' fellas...

i use my car mainly for cruising and practicing. i would like to take it to the track more often and would like to start taking some courses at thunderhill.

ive got a beater civic as a commuter...sooooo...this is my weekend warrior/garage king :wink:

[JanSolo]

Added per your request.

Face it, the Evo is a guy magnet, not a chick magnet (not for girls of legal age, anyway ;)). Every time I drive to a place like Santana Row (where there's a relatively equal ratio of men vs. women) I'll parade the Evo down the row and my friends take a count of who turns to look at the car. Usually it's 90%+ guys.

[SouthernCrane]

I use mine mainly for weekend fun in the mountains (not racing) and just cruising around town.

[solarxclipse]

I use mine as my weekend car, visiting friends and relatives, going to monthly meet, and hangout with fellow Evo owners.

[BluEvo]

i use my Evo as an everyday driver. not really much into the racing aspects of it all (at the moment). just want to trick out my Evo a little here and there for pure pleasure and the love of the game! and to show some V8's out of course! :wink:

I dont know about you guys...but the grocery store is the PERFECT place to pick up hot chicks.

[wilson1]

Mines will be strictly for picking up chicks, wait till i put some 22" rims on with spinners!! :lol:

it's an untapped resource right there!

[JanSolo]

I was thinking about starting up a group buy on some spinners for the Evo. Maybe Cal has some friends who could hook us up?

[DB8GSR]

My Evo is my daily driver. I rarely drive it on the weekends. Definitely more track time is what my Evo's goal this year!! :drool:

[TheJANG]

Commuter car for me...

[howiEVO8]

you forgot a category, how bout Show AND Go?

[warpspeed]

I always wanted a fast, smog legal car. Since the evo is affordable, what the heck. I mainly use it on the weekend when there is no traffic. Also I like to collect things and cars are one of them.

[uhoh_evo]

i don't know what to vote for. i use it for a little of everything. i eventually want to mod to be able to hit up the track becuase i could go just as fast safer without worry of popos or accidents and i think that would make things more fun. but i also wanna smoke the occasional idiot er two

:werd: can't say much for the pickin up the ladies. :lol:

[xchoirboy]

needed a 4 door car

[BluEvo]

needed a 4 door car

good choice!

[jstockdale]

I always wanted a [...] smog legal car.

I always wanted the same ... but I ended up with my Evo :twisted:

...

Uhm ... what I mean to say ... was of course my car meets emission standards officer :wink:

-S ...

[r6bruin]

A bit of everything, except chick magnet and street racing....

[chris]

going into track racing, and crusing. maybe once in a while street but not really into it.

hahaha gb on spinners! if you can find 3 evo guys, i can make it happen. but the question is, do they really want spinners on their evo? :lol:

[blitzkrgCT9A]

Jan, you want a set of Spinners? real ones or fake ones? :)

[TheJANG]

I've heard that the fake ones that are set about 4" out from the wheel face act as excellent vortex generators. A physicist friend of mine estimated that at right around 194mph you would be able to create two parallel wormholes, so any vehicle driving off of one corner of your car would be sucked in and instantly re-appear at the other corner.

:yikes:

haha right! you are really going to put spinners on your evo. I will have to see it to believe it! :lol:

[lambtron]

I'd say a little bit of everything as well, except show and street racing. Im not into the whole show car thing; and well, street racing, is just really fucking lame. Im down for the occasional freeway run, or stoplight run given theres no traffic or pedestrians, but honestly imo, all those fools who go to the actual street races(racing or just watching, you're still supporting it) are fucking idiots.

Daily Driver, now let's get it over 400 Hp

[Black_EVO]

It's sad but it is my wife's daily driver and grocery getter. She gets to drive it more than I do. I drive the SVT around the bay area (200+ mi per day).

[559EVO]

Mine works great in all catagories and never fails.

[str8dvsoz]

when I get one it will be for hill and dirt because I would love to do a Rally some day. And I have just seen a saleen mustang with spinnersso why not a EVO :shock:

[toasty]

Just saving up money to put down payment of half to get me started.
Planning to get a Tarmac Black Evo 03'.
Should I wait till the RS and or the MR comes out or what? What are you guy's suggestions? :computer:

[nebolic]

try to get an 03 asap, cause some guy on EVOm that is a dealer said the new prices MSRP for an 04 Evo 8 with sunroof and spoiler is $33k + i believe a lot of people got the 03 Evo 8 for ~$28.5K with sunroof and spoiler. If you want a RS or MR expect to pay a hefty premiumn.

Road Racing , you got to love it ..
not as crazy as Robi , if you never have track the car .. you don't know how much the Evo really is and what is ment for :cool:

[toasty]

Is the 03 version a thing that goes rare all of a sudden, I plan to get the 03 version in the summer, around maybe June or July. BTW, when will the 04 start coming out? I have not even seen the RS version out yet, when is that one coming? I meant the RS version?
:thumbsup:

[vtluu]

when is that one coming? I meant the RS version?
