Having come from an S2000 and going to an Evo......


The Evo is a very needy creature. I miss my S dearly, but I had no choice due to the winters here in Chicago. The S never gave me one issue, while I have had my fair share of things breaking on the Evo. I do not track my Evo, only to and from work with some spirited driving in between.

It is truly a love and hate relationship with the Evo. Once I get all the kinks worked outta her, she'll be everything I wanted in a car. That process is costing me A LOT of money.

Brake pads and rotors are way more expensive. Changing the drive line fluids was much more expensive. Mine goes through tires faster. If you only daily drive it, it's probably not that much different. It gets worse gas mileage too.

If you got to evom you will find most evo owners are terrible at finances. So it wouldn't surprise me if they didn't think it through and actually spent wayyy to much money getting in their evo and then spent a lot of money getting out of their evo.
Best post! Alot of young dumb men do big impulse buying
