I just don't see me wanting to spend the money on the 5spd swap to enjoy it on the track this summer.

I couldn't imagine getting that shit MPGs in anything, even full size pickups get better than that.

HMM, How much? :)

It looks great going down the highway, but from what you told me even if it got 20mpg, I still think you would be happier in something else maybe more practical for your interests.

Yup, pretty much aaron. I'm thinking about taking a break from car stuff for a couple years at least.

Agreed, if you can do bikes they are totally the best option.

Good luck man.

Nope when I sell this car, the only thing I will be buying is a comfortable vehicle and a house

I hope you decide to keep this till spring!

I'd disagree on a bike, they can be and are fun but they are no replacement for an evo/dsm. Any chump can get on a bike and go relatively fast, including this guy <---:rollinglaugh:

Haha you'll be back if you sell this evo though! Either way good luck!

haha I'm gonna be dumb then spaz. I'm just not into this as much as I was, I dont feel like spending a bunch of money on cars at this point in my life. I know I've said it before. Don't really feel like living at my parents house with no garage space half the time and not being able to have the other fun stuff I would like with a house. Sure I could afford a house and the evo, but then I would be living pretty tight on money. Not to mention I cant fit an ice house in my car with an auger or tow a boat with my car.

Responsibility sucks doesn't it? Dan just sold his GSX last week and picked up a 1999 Accord for the daily grind to work because he and Kassy are engaged now.

Clean car for sure!

It is too bad you aren't enjoying it anymore! :(

Has there been any performance work done to the car since it left Chris' hands?

I thought he sold this car for under 13k? IMHO it seems like 15.5k is a lot for the same car, but just older and with more miles on it.

Good luck on sale if you do decide to sell it! I would possibly consider it if you lowered the price, I am going to be shopping around for a clean 1ga or EVO over the next few months.

Yes Paul did buy this for under 13k, but right after he bought it had to replace clutch,tires, bent wheel,brakes,and a bunch of other little things. Since I have owned the car, I have had it tuned,replaced the rear axle seals, rear diff mod and also the pinion seal along with new wheels and snow tires. NADA clean retail is 18600 for this car stock. So with that being said me stating a ballpark price of 15.5k is what I think very reasonable since I was not in any way saying it was firm. I will post a for sale thread when I decide to take the time and do so.

Hope you stick to your word. Selling it and saving for a house is a good idea. I need to grow up and do the same thing.
