So far I love it. I was never happy with how heavy the 3000GT felt, handled, and drove. The week I drove this car with the sticky tires, even on cold pavement, was amazing. Maybe better than my Miata.

I bought this car primarily to race it. And not in a straight line either.

Very nice, congrats.
I saw a few for dirt cheap and I can say that I thought about it for a bit.

Excellent purchase CVD and choice, looks very clean and a great blank slate to start with.

Nice car CVD, I have been recently looking at these too, just haven't found the right one to bite on yet. Where did you get it from?

Re: 2005 Evolution VIII RS

I picked it up from a local autocrosser who lives in Eden Prairie. It was originally posted on the mnautox board, and then evomn and all the usual for sale sites.

You bought Salah's car? Awesome! I should have realized that right away. Glad to know the car stayed in capable hands.
