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 agree spy that I have many hard hours under the hood of the GSX and I am very much attached to it.
however, now that it is running, I am very much scared to race it except from a highway pull.... I just don;t want it to break.... I would feel much more comfortable in something that is more reliable, thats why I keep trying to figure out how to get something else like an EVO.

I will continue to try to figure out how to get one until I accually get one. anyone else have any suggestions??? maybe once some of the other bills are paid off I can convince the wife to be more acceptant of a new ride.... maybe I could just hang on to both of them at that point!!!!
