DSM or EVO Options

[SCCA Stang]

so I have been debating selling the GSX and getting something more reliable.... some of you have known that and I have heard both good and bad replies on that comment.

The thought has once again immerged.

this time, instead of thinling of buying a Mustang, the car that seems to meet my needs is more in the lines of an EVO.

Pro's of keeping the GSX: mods pretty much done, pretty much paid for, cheap mods, knowledge of the car and platform, cheaper insurance than the EVO, tires are cheaper because of the size

Con's of keeping the GSX: low resale value due to age and mileage, lots of miles, not as reliable, 2 door, wife hates car, less mods available, parts are getting hard to find, transmissions are netorious for breaking, it's an older car, lower gas mileage than an EVO, bolts are older and harder to remove, parts on the car are old and more worn

Pro's of buying an EVO: Less miles, reliability, practicallity, 4 doors, wife would be happier, better gas miliage, it's a newer car with modern updates, it has a higher resale value, there are more mods available, new parts and bolts, parts are easier to find, HID lights, bullet proof drive train, recaro seats, better handling.... it's an EVO!!!!

Con's of buying EVO: purchase price, clutches are notorious for wear, need a loan, will have a car payment, mods cost more, tires will cost more due to size, the car will most likely be stock or closer to stock

what does everyone think

does anyones else have pro's or cons to either car.

should I sell the GSX and buy an EVO????

I have my eyes on one particular yellow one that most of us have seen in person and several of us have seen in action. hmmmmm..... the owner accually posted in this thread, how bout that.

too bad I don't have 21K layin around. and my wife doesn't want me taking out a loan for it yet either.

well, since that is the evo, I change my opinion and advocate the purchase.
