So Jim and I were going out to dinner last night and on the way home I begged him to stop by the mitsu dealer so we could check out some new cars.....after throwing a big ol hissy fit he finally gave in wink.gif We pull in and they have the evo 8 just sitting there getting ready to go on a test drive. wub.gif I strike up conversation with the fella taking it out and the salesman....turns out they are both really big on the car scene here in Lafy and the guy who is going on the test drive has a 95 tsi awd that he is going to start modifying soon! So they all wanted to take it for a test drive together and I decide to let Jim go and do the "guy" thing maybe make some new friends lol. They show up an hour later right as the dealership was closing......all 3 had smiles from ear to ear as they step out of the car. The car is amazing.......so needless to say as soon as we get back on our feet again we're going to trade either the 1g or my durango in on it.
While I was sitting there waiting for them to return I got pretty well aquainted with the gm of the Mitsu dealer here and much to my suprise the guy knows his stuff! He had me watching all kinds of rally videos featuring the evo.......all I have to say is.....I want...I need.....and I shall have!!!!!! biggrin.gif

Hey, what would be the fun of getting a brand new car? Jim wouldn't get to fix it when it spun a rod bearing!! laugh.gif wink.gif
katie
lmao rob....I'm sure he'd find a way to break it. you know....those would be awesome family cars...they do have 4 doors and all cool.gif
AWD DSM 1
Ha! Family car! Ha! laugh.gif

And you really think Jim could resist the temptation to smoke the 5.slow sitting next to him with a family in the car... Ha! That would be really great to see a kid in the backseat waving bu-bye as the EVO kicked your rear.... laugh.gif
katie
the way I figure is our kids are going to grow up around racing any how...their first word will probably be mitsubishi (hehehe) so why not do it right? lolthe only prob with the evo is the dogs can't fit in it....maybe we'll take the motor out of the evo and throw it in to an Endevor??? HMMMMM I think I like that idea!!!!
favre95
where are you located at? Which mitsu dealer were you at? This is mine.

katie
omg.....no way that was so harsh!!! lol I am so in love with the evo 8........ wub.gif We now live in Lafayette Indiana. There is only one guy around here that just bought one....but rumor is is that he's moving to peoria......so you'd better watch out boys wink.gif Favre.....so you have any more pics of that sexy car of yours.......may I post them over my bed.....or would that be just too wrong? lol
favre95
If you must!!! LOL! I am the only one that lives in springfield with one. There have been 3 sold from my dealer here....I am pretty sure I am the first one in illinois to have one. March 5th was the day I picked her up. I like being the only one with this car for the most part...every once in awhile I hear people say they see one of the other 2(the other two owners are in bloomington and peoria I believe). But, yes they are amazing cars....I had been waiting for almost 5 years for this car to make it's way over here. This car when pushed can almost be scary. ohmy.gif

I believe Paco from Centralillinoisimports.org picked his up the day they hit the showroom floors.

I asked him when he got his, he was after me.

Serbd97-

I wasn't trying to build my ego at all, that is the last of my thoughts dipsmack. I asked him out of curiosity one day when we were talking on the forum at CILimports.com...and it dawned on me that there is a good chance that I was the 1st in illinois to have one. I really could care less....I got my evo. Why do you think I was boosting my ego just cause I have an evo and YOU! don't.....I work my ass off for this car...it doesn't come easy for me...I work 11 hour days for it, starting at 4:30 AM..and if you are gonna ask me if I wanna boost my ego? not really....no need for it, the car speaks for itself.....I only want to boost my ego to you my friend!!! laugh.gif

Sorry man, ya got the wrong person for that. At 23, I have a nice house, 3 cars, a good job, and a good marriage. I am the last one that needs my ego boosted. I, as well, have worked my ass for every dime and thing I have ever gotten and am damn proud of it. As far you having the Evo and me not, whoopty f*cking do. I have my GVR4, and could go out and get an Evo if I wanted, so that ain't shit to me f*cknugget. And there is no need to boost your ego to me, I could give a f*ck less. Sorry to disappoint ya, but that's just the way it is.

Maybe you guys don't need your ego boosted by I do! My car doesn't run, isn't fast, I'm poor and my job sucks. And I just had to take the wheels off my car to put 'em on the trailer since my lease is up. And last year I had to sell the double wide and buy a regular trailer. sad.gif

Seriously, am I the only person on here who doesn't own a home and have 3 spare cars? I guess Champign is like the slums of Peoria. I visit there and it's like Disneyland. Someday...
favre95
According to your post it seams you wanna brag about everything you have. Why is that? Are you sure I am the one boosting my ego??? If the evo concerns you that much then go get one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!It seems you have the money. ANYWAY,...I love my evo and work very hard for it and if I wanna boost my ego. THEN I WILL!!!! Your the one that stuck your nose in this thread so back off dipsh*t. Anyway, this thread is pointless and your a waste of time....peace out homey!

Thanks Super16 and Serb for bringing things down a notch. Can we get a similar response from Fav?

BTW - As usual I have been wrenching in the garage rather than watching these threads, otherwise it would never have made it this far. Please, help to keep this a BS-free site...I think it's what difines our particular nitch in the Sport Compact world.

Look what you started.... Shame on you.
People, no happiness can be measured by cars. I hate to tell you that. Or homes...
Eugene has it right, a good marriage.
And I'm sure Rob and others would chime in that kids make happiness as well (most of the time).

No thank you, I am happy with the marriage, I don't know that I am ready to ruin it by throwing kids into the equation yet. LOL.
