Going to be new Evo owner!
 
Hey guys, just thought i'd introduce myself. My name is Nick, I am from Cedar, MN and I have recently purchased a new RR Evo 8. On saturday I am going to get it in michigan! 95talonracer and I are going to get it. I am extremely excited!

Just thought I would say Hi, and I am looking forward to being apart of your guys's big Mitsubishi family!

Edit: Oh BTW, I am still a die-hard Toyota fan. Maybe I will change my opinion soon!

Where in Michigan? Hughes and I drove to Ann Arbor for teh gheyrod (his IX) just shy of two years ago now, it was a blast! We spent the night in NW Chicago burbs at a place withing walking distance of a huge mall. The girls slept in and went there for a bit, and we woke up early, bombed to ann arbor, test drove, bank, blah blah blah, and bombed back. Topped it off with a trip to Gino's East (best chicago pizza evar) and bombed back to MN.

Yep thats him. We got that motor swap done and custom exhaust made, welded, and installed too. Time to move to better cars like the EVO and the Celica is up for sale!

Re: Going to be new Evo owner!
 
Def an upgrade. I guess I will be meeting you tomorrow night. Once you drive it you wont ever want to touch your celica again.

I am pretty sure it is an 05. The bank and insurance had no problems with the VIN number. I am going to go check the title when i get to work...


Edit: Title says 05. I guess I cant argue with that.

You don't know how well a stock Evo handles. :)

Re: Going to be new Evo owner!
 
Alright, alright. I'll take everyone's word for it! I am looking forward to the handling and how well it drives in the snow... I think the snow excites me more then anything else :JD:

Only 3 more hours and we are leaving to pick it up! Taking an Evo to go pick up another Evo. Should be a good time. Anyone have any good places to stop at and eat on the way back thru Chicago?

Is that a dry carbon hood? Or is it just the pics that makes it look like it is? Either way, it's a pretty sweet looking car!

Re: Going to be new Evo owner!
 
It was a great little trip, Liz and I had a blast. I somehow managed to pop off the upper intercooler pipe off in the middle of I-90 in downtown chicago, that was pretty scary. We only got one rolling shot and kerry should post that up sometime today.
